Mouse Fam132b DNA (NM_173395) was cloned into the pENTR4.LP shuttle vector54 (link) containing tandem tetracycline operators55 (link) after replacing its native secretion signal sequence with the one from mouse IgG, inserting a Kozak sequence and C-terminal addition of a G4S linker, and a C-tag via KpnI and EcoRI sites and purified (Maxiprep, Qiagen). The plasmid was transiently transfected in the Expi-CHO system (Gibco, Thermoscientific). Supernatants were harvested 13 days post transfection and the mouse ERFE protein was affinity purified via CaptureSelect C-tag affinity matrix (Life Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific) using 2 M MgCl2, 20 mM Tris, pH 7.0.
