Epigenetic regulation of gene expression: how the genome integrates intrinsic and environmental signals

R Jaenisch, A Bird�- Nature genetics, 2003 - nature.com
Cells of a multicellular organism are genetically homogeneous but structurally and
functionally heterogeneous owing to the differential expression of genes. Many of these�…

Nuclear reprogramming and pluripotency

K Hochedlinger, R Jaenisch�- Nature, 2006 - nature.com
The cloning of mammals from differentiated donor cells has refuted the old dogma that
