Transgenic pigs play an important role in biomedicine and agriculture. The "safe harbor" locus maintains consistent foreign gene expression in cells and is important for transgenic pig generation. However, as only several safe harbor loci(Rosa26, pH11 and Pifs501) have been identified in pigs, meeting the needs of the insertion of various foreign genes is difficult. In this study, we develop a novel strategy for the efficient knock-in of gene-of-interest fragments into endogenous beta-actin(ACTB) gene via CRISPR/Cas9 mediated homologous recombination with normal expression of ACTB. Thus, we provide an alternative strategy to integrate exogenous genes into the pig genome that can be applied to agricultural breeding and biomedical models.
