Totipotency of mouse zygotes extends to single blastomeres of embryos at the four-cell stage
Abstract In multicellular organisms, oocytes and sperm undergo fusion during fertilization and the resulting zygote gives rise to a new individual. The ability of zygotes to produce a fully formed individual from a single cell when placed in a supportive environment is known as totipotency. Given th...
