Research Abstract |
We tried to generate iPS cells from our transgenic rat having drug-inducible reprogramming factors. However, there were some difficulties in mating. Then, as a first step to generate iPS cells and to analyze the reprogramming mechanisms, I focused on Oct4-binding sites in the nanog gene which is a marker gene of ES cells. I identified novel 9 novel Oct4-binding sequences in the rat nanog gene.
