Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are pluripotent due to their ability to differentiate into any cell type of the body, including functional gametes. These cells are also capable of infinite self-renewal and are highly receptive to genetic modification.

Unfortunately, all attempts to derive naive pluripotent ESCs from livestock animals h...
