The mlCNBD cDNA sequence (cyclic nucleotide binding-domain) of the cyclic nucleotide-gated K+ channel from Mesorhizobium loti (MAFF303099, mll3241) was amplified via PCR (Cukkemane et al.,2007) using the following primers:

  • C0686: 5'- GGCGGATCCCAAGAAGTCCGTCGCGG-3'
  • C0687: 5'- GCCTCGAGCGCTCGCCGCAGCG-3' 

For expression in mammalian cell lines, citrine and cerulean were amplified by PCR and fused to the N- and C-terminus of the mlCNBD via BamHI/HindIII or XhoI/ApaI, respectively.

  • citrine: C0053/0089 (BamHI/HindIII)
  • C0053: 5'-CCCAAGCTTCCACCATGGTGAGCAAGGGCGAGGAG-3'
  • C0089: 5'-CGGGATCCCTTGTACAGCTCGTCCATGCCGAGAGTGATCCC-3'
  • cerulean: C0057/58 (XhoI/ApaI)
  • C0057: 5'-CCGCTCGAGATGGTGAGCAAGGGCGAG-3'
  • C0058: 5'-GCAGGGCCCTAGTGATGGTGATGGTGATGATGGTGATGATGC-3'

The C-termi-nus of cerulean contained a histidine (His10) tag. The PCR product was cloned into a pcDNA3.1(+) vector (Invitrogen, Darmstadt, Germany) using BamHI and ApaI (pc3.1-mlCNBD-FRET).
