The mini-GS construct (399) used in single particle cryo-EM reconstructions is based on the construct 393 that was used in the structure determination of the A2AR- mini-GS crystal structure (Carpenter et al., 2016; Carpenter and Tate, 2016). However, unlike construct 393, mini-GS399 binds βγ (Nehmé et al., 2017). The expression and purification of the respective components and assembly to make the complex containing mini-GS-β1γ2, and the preparation of nanobody Nb35, were all performed following the protocols described previously (Carpenter and Tate, 2016; Rasmussen et al., 2011; Carpenter and Tate, 2017b).
