As reported previously [24], 1 × 106 erythrocytes were incubated with biotinylated SIRPα WT/variants or anti-CD47 antibody for 30 min at 4 °C for cell binding analysis. The binding of biotinylated proteins was detected by Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated streptavidin as a secondary staining reagent. In cell blocking analysis, biotinylated SIRPα WT was incubated with Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated streptavidin to form SIRPα WT tetramers. Then, SIRPα WT tetramers were combined with CD47 antagonists added to CFSE+ erythrocytes simultaneously. After removal of the remaining nonspecific signals, the cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Data for the above experiments represented the fluorescence intensity normalized to maximal binding and were fitted to a dose–response curve.
