Analysis of Reprogramming Mechanism of Germline Stem Cells

Research Project Outline

Germline stem cells from the postnatal testis can convert into ES-like, multipotent germline stem cells without any genetic treatment. We will examine 1) the differences between SSCs and ES cells, 2) analyze the reprogramming machinery, and 3) derive mGS cells from a variety of animal species.
