Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) = creating embryonic clones by fusing a diploid nucleus with a enucleated egg cell more embryos than needed are created = raises ethical concerns of excess embryos Nuclear reprogramming: cause a change in gene expression profile of a celll = different cell type (transdifferentiation) Uses oncogenic retroviruses and transgenes = cancer
