To generate myc-BioID-DPRx100 plasmids, sequences encoding poly-GR, -PR, and -GA (with alternating codons to avoid RNA repeats) were cloned into the pcDNA3.1 mycBioID plasmid (Addgene plasmid #35700) [80 (link)] by replacing the TDP-CTF BamHI/HindIII fragment in pcDNA3.1 mycBioID TDP-CTF [12 (link)]. Resulting plasmids encode myc-BioID-(GGGS)x3-(DPR)x100 fusion proteins. EGFP and mCherry-tagged DPR x100 plasmids were generated by replacing the BioID NdeI/BamHI fragment in myc-BioID-(GGGS)x3-(DPR)x100 with EGFP or mCherry. 2xHA-poly-GA was cloned by replacing the PvuI/BamHI fragment of EGFP in EGFP-poly-GA with a double HA tag (MGYPYDVPDYAGGYPYDVPDYA). Expression constructs for EGFP-tagged SQSTM1, UBXN6, VCP, and HSPA8 (accession numbers #38277 [35 (link)], #86464 [75 (link)], # 23971 [55 (link)], #19487 [30 (link)], respectively), as well as mCherry-Calreticulin-N-16 (#55006) were obtained from Addgene. EGFP-tagged Calreticulin was cloned by replacing mCherry AgeI/NotI fragment in mCherry-Calreticulin-N-16 with EGFP from the pEGFP-N1 vector (Clontech).
