MESA receptors were cloned into pcDNA backbones to confer high expression in HEK293FT cells. These plasmid backbones are versions of the pcDNA3.1/Hygro(+) Mammalian Expression Vector (Thermo Fisher #V87020), modified by our laboratory in previous work (Addgene #138749) (32 (link)). In general, restriction sites were chosen to facilitate modular swapping of parts via restriction enzyme cloning. A complete list of plasmids used in this study is provided in Supplementary Data S1. Plasmid maps are included as GenBank files in Supplementary Data S2.
