PRIMATE TOTIPOTENT AND PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS PRODUCED BY SOMATIC CELL NUCLEAR TRANSFER

摘要

Purified totipotent stem cells and pluripotent stem cells derived by somatic cell nuclear transfer are disclosed herein, as well as cell lines, multipotent cells and differentiated cells produced from these stem cells. The stem cells are produced from an enucleated host cell from a first donor and nuclear genetic material from a somatic cell of a second donor. Methods for making and using such compositions of such stem cells are also provided.
