pT7-CalfluxVTN, which was a gift from Carl Johnson (Addgene plasmid # 83926)27 (link), was served as the template to design MAM-Calflux. A 173 aa N-terminal fragment of Venus domain of CalfluxVTN, VN173, was conjugated with a 103 aa linker and the ER-targeting sequence (mSac1 521–587 aa) at its C-terminus. A fragment containing the C-terminal part of Venus, VC155, and following Troponin C and NanoLuc domains was conjugated with the mitochondria-targeting sequence (mAkap1 1–30 aa) and a 57 aa linker at its N-terminus. Sec61b-mCherry was a gift from Gia Voeltz (Addgene plasmid # 49155)72 (link). pCMV R-CEPIA1er was a gift from Masamitsu Iino (Addgene plasmid # 58216)29 (link). The core sequence of human MFN2 shRNA was GGAAGAGCACCGTGATCAATG73 (link).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
