“…A calreticulin construct with a N-terminal maltosebinding protein (MBP) tag (MBP-CRT) was generated using ligation-independent cloning to insert human CRT(WT) into the pMCSG9 vector (22) as described earlier (17,23). mCRT(K70C), mCRT(H128C), and the mCRT(E110C/E245C) double mutant were made in the background of mCRT(C146G) using the QuikChange II site-directed mutagenesis kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA) as described earlier (24) with mCRT in the pMCSG7 vector.…”
