A property of them may be induced in other cells by the oncogene cMyc.
The Hox genes NANOG and Oct-4, as well as the transcription factor SOX2, are critical to maintaining the function of these cells, which require fibroblasts called feeder cells to be grown in cultures. A property of them may be induced in other cells by the oncogene cMyc. The inner mass cells of the blastocyst are (*) pleuripotent ones, while only the cells of the morula are truly totipotent. For 10 points, name this class of cells, able to differentiate into specialized cell types while replenishing themselves through mitosis.
