Cell lines and cell culture Human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293, #CRL-1573) cells were obtained from ATCC and were cultured in DMEM/F-12 (Dulbeccos Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12, Gibco #11330-032) medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Sigma-Aldrich #F2442) and 1x penicillin streptomycin (Corning #30-002 CL) at 37 C in a 5% CO2 incubator
Expression and purification of Fab7F38GLP-1RsemaglutideGs Human GLP-1R (Arg24-Leu422) fragment fused with a N-terminal HA-FLAG-B2-HRV14-3C tags and C-terminal HPC4-HRV14-3C-10 His tags was synthesized and inserted into a modified pFastBac-1 vector (BamHI/HindIII sites) under the polh promoter (Genewiz) (see primers in Supplementary Table 2)
