Molecular biology was performed according to standard protocols. The Multisite Gateway Three-Fragment Vector Construction Kit (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY) was used to construct donor plasmids. Fragments were then recombined into the MosSCI destination vectors pCFJ150 or pCFJ212 (Frøkjær-Jensen et al., 2008 (link), 2012 (link)). For constructs in which two fragments were ligated by PCR, fusion PCR was performed as in Hobert (2002) (link). Primers used for generating constructs are listed in Table 3, and plasmid construction strategies are summarized in Table 4.
