Recombinant Semaphorin 4D was produced as a secreted protein fused with AP. To produce recombinant Semaphorin, human embryonic kidney HEK293T cells were transfected with Sema4D-AP in pcDNA3 vector47 (link), using Fugene 6 reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Promega) The supernatant of transfected cells was collected, filtered and concentrated 10-fold by Spin-X UF concentrators with a 100kDa cutoff (Millipore). Protein concentration was normalized to a range of 3–6 nM by measurement of the AP-activity using Alkaline Phosphatase Colorimetric Assay kit (Abcam).
