Reproductive Cloning and Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Reproductive cloning produces a genetically matched organism using somatic cell nuclear transfer: transferring a donor's diploid nucleus into an enucleated egg, a technique also usable therapeutically.
Show
Dolly the sheep, born in 1996, developed from a donor nucleus transferred into an enucleated egg and implanted in a surrogate.
Watch for
Nuclear transfer supplies the donor's nuclear DNA; the egg's cytoplasm still shapes early development.
