Stem-cell lineA stem cell line is a group of stem cells that is cultured in vitro and can be propagated indefinitely. Stem cell lines are derived from either animal or human tissues and come from one of three sources: embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, or induced stem cells. They are commonly used in research and regenerative medicine. Stem cell By definition, stem cells possess two properties: (1) they can self-renew, which means that they can divide indefinitely while remaining in an undifferentiated state; and (2) they are pluripotent or multipotent, which means that they can differentiate to form specialized cell types.
Taille du génomevignette|Arbre phylogénétique indiquant la taille des génomes chez les organismes des trois domaines du monde vivant: les bactéries Bacteria (en bleu), les archées Archaea (en vert) et les eucaryotes Eucarya (en rouge). La taille du génome correspond à la quantité d'ADN contenue dans une copie d'un génome. La taille d'un génome est également appelée valeur C.
