摘要

Differentiated cells can be experimentally reprogrammed to an embryonic state by different approaches.Nuclear repro-gramming entails reactivation of silenced embryonic genes, such as Oct4 (Pou5f1). The most efficient method for reprogram-ming is regarded as nuclear transfer to eggs/oocytes. However, oocyte factors and mechanisms participating in this efficient reprogramming have not been elucidated. We have recently identified actin in a nucleus (nuclear actin) as one such factor by using the unique nuclear transfer system into Xenopus oocytes.Actin is a major constituent of the cytoskeleton. Growing evidence suggests that actin plays an important role in many nuclear events, including transcription, RNA processing, gene movement and chromatin remodeling.In our recent study, we took advantage of the giant nucleus of the Xenopus oocyte, referred to as the germinal vesicle (GV), in order to analyze functions of nuclear actin in transcriptional reprogramming (Fig. 1). Hundreds of somatic nuclei can be injected into one GV, and almost all transplanted nuclei are efficiently reprogrammed to express many embryonic genes.
