Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells)are produced by _____.
A) transferring a vitamin A gene into rice plants
B) reprogramming adult cells by transferring certain master control genes into the cells' nuclei
C) mutating certain genes in human blastocysts
D) harvesting multipotent stem cells from umbilical cord blood
E) harvesting enzymes from cadavers, and then using the enzymes to reprogram adult cells

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) are produced by reprogramming adult cells by transferring certain master control genes into the cells' nuclei. This allows the cells to differentiate into various cell types, similar to embryonic stem cells.
