G. aStem cells as nuclear donors for mammalian cloning.h[electronic resource] c2023 ap. 115-129 a(Springer. Methods in Molecular Biology, 2647). aMammals are routinely cloned by introducing somatic nuclei into enucleated oocytes. Cloning contributes to propagating desired animals, to germplasm conservation efforts, among other applications. A challenge to more broader use of this technology is the relatively low cloning efficiency, which inversely correlates with donor cell differentiation status. Emerging evidence suggests that adult multipotent stem cells improve cloning efficiency, while the greater potential of embryonic stem cells for cloning remains restricted to the mouse. The derivation of pluripotent or totipotent stem cells from livestock and wild species and their association with modulators of epigenetic marks in donor cells should increase cloning efficiency. aClone aClone Nucelar aMamífero aCélulas tronco aConservação de germoplasma1 aMARTINS, C.
