Abstract
Beta actin is a cytoskeletal protein that contributes to a wide range of cellular processes. Here we generated beta actin reporter knock-in in BJNhem20 human embryonic stem cell line by CRISPR Cas9 gene editing. The reporter mEGFP is integrated at the beta actin locus, tagging the N-terminal of the protein via a linker. The reporter line is a valuable tool to study beta actin dynamics during cellular process in human embryonic stem cells and to track cells by live imaging.
