The protein constructs were cloned into pcDNA3.4 vector (GeneArt, Regensburg, Germany), amplified in Escherichia coli and recombinantly expressed using Expi293 cells as described previously [48 (link)]. Seven days after transfection, the proteins were purified using the ÄKTA start system and protein G columns (Cytiva, Uppsala, Sweden) as described previously [49 (link)]. The eluted proteins were aliquoted and stored at − 80 °C until further application.
