Mice born of two dads reveal hidden details of mammalian reproduction
Researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University have produced fertile adult mice from embryos constructed entirely with male genetic material. Mice carrying only paternal DNA developed into fertile adults following precision editing of seven imprinting control regions, revealing genomic imprinting as a core barrier to uniparental mammalian development.
They are healthy and fertile, but the success rate is very low (ANSA)
