The TASK-1 G203D point mutation was generated using a previously described approach (28 (link)). The sequences of oligonucleotide primers (Integrated DNA Technologies) used to create the TASK-1 G203D mutant were ACCACCATCGGCTTCGACGACTACGTGGCGCTGCAGA (forward) and TCTGCAGCGCCACGTAGTCGTCGAAGCCGATGGTGGT (reverse). PCRs were performed in 50 µL with Q5 high-fidelity DNA polymerase (New England Biolabs) with 100 ng of pCDNA3.1-KCNK3 plasmid. DNA was then incubated with 1 µL DpnI for two hours at 37 °C. Clones were sequenced to confirm mutagenesis.
