Human TREM2/DAP12 is overexpressed in HEK293 cell line (RRID: CVCL_0045, ATCC: PTA-4488) by transfection of a dual promoter pBudCE4.1 vector driving expression of TREM2 under the CMV promoter and DAP12 the under the EF1a promoter.
Stable clones were isolated after zeocin selection (800 µg ml−1 for 10 days), and TREM2 was detected by flow cytometry (APC-conjugated rat anti-human/mouse-TREM2 monoclonal antibody, R&D Systems, MAB17291). The clone showing the highest TREM2 expression level was selected.
