We provide for the use of Tbx3 (GenBank Accession Number: NM_005996.3 (SEQ ID NO. 1), NP_005987.3 (SEQ ID NO. 2), NM_016569.3 (SEQ ID NO. 3), NP_057653.3 (SEQ ID NO. 4)) in a method of enhancing or inducing pluripotency in a cell such as a somatic cell. We describe a method of reprogramming a cell, the method comprising modulating the expression and/or activity of Tbx3 in the cell. The cell may become a pluripotent cell such as a stem cell. We further describe a method of causing a cell such as a somatic cell to display one or more characteristics of a pluripotent cell, the method comprising modulating the expression and/or activity of Tbx3 in the cell.
