Abstract

In the first mitosis of a fertilized egg cell the chromosomes divide equationally and the two identical halves of each chromosome pass to opposite poles of the spindle. Thus the nuclei in the two daughter cells are identical. Since the chromosomes divide equationally in all of the thousands of subsequent mitoses occurring during development and differentiation, it is believed that all nuclei of an individual, whether located in undifferentiated or specialized tissues, are alike—i.e., they all have the same genotype. Yet these diverse somatic cells of presumed identical genotype come to possess during ontogeny certain differences and these differences have been shown to be permanent modifications since they are maintained indefinitely in tissue culture. The inherited difference between somatic cells of differentiated tissue, or cell heredity as it has been termed, must have its basis in the cytoplasm. It follows that the architecture of the cytoplasm is such as to permit the reproduction of its kind. Cytoplasmic differences first arise, so it is argued, from the action of nuclear genes; therefore the ultimate control of development would seem to lie with the gene and the kind of genes present in the nucleus determines in a given environmental milieu the course of development. We may grant that gene-induced cytoplasmic changes are concerned in somatic differentiation and that these modifications once acquired are part of the genetic endowment of the cell.
