Abstract

See full text

It was found that DUXC family proteins were efficient activators of EGA and that DUXC proteins could be used in methods in the reprogramming of cells to a totipotent state and to increase the efficiency of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Accordingly, aspects of the disclosure relate to a method for reprogramming a cell into a totipotent state, the method comprising expressing a DUXC family protein in the cell. Further aspects of the disclosure relate to a method for making a host cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryo comprising expressing a DUXC protein in a somatic cell and transferring the nucleus of the somatic cell to an enucleated oocyte, thereby making a SCNT embryo.
