AP−: alkaline phosphatase negative; AP+: alkaline phosphatase positive; epl: epithelial-like; str: striated
The number below each colony phenotype fraction corresponds to the estimated colony formation efficiency as a percentage of the number of cells used to initiate reprogramming cultures (see Figure 3(a)).
