Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  High Throughput Screening (HTS) by Fluorescence Polarization (pH = 7.2)
Description:  The enzyme in GCase enzyme activity buffer (25 μL/well) was added to a 384-well black plate. The fluorescent probe 3 (25 nL/well, 50 nM final concentration) was transferred to a 384-well black plate using a Labcyte Echo 550 Liquid Handler system. Compounds in DMSO stock solution (50 nL) were transferred to the plate. The plate was shaken at room temperature in dark for 20 min. The final concentration was 19.5 nM to 10 μM, 10 concentrations, 2 times dilution. The fluorescence polarization was measured in a Molecular Devices Analyst GT with Ex=535 nm and Em=580 nm, G Factor=1.05. To the recombinant wild type enzyme (22 μM, 95 μL, 1 equiv) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) was added 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 3-(2-(2-(4-(4-(2,4-dimethylpyrrolo [1,2-a]pyrimidine-8-carboxamido)phenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethoxy)ethoxy)propanoate (4) in DMSO (0.89 mM, 5 μL, 2 equiv) in one portion, and was vortexed for 5 sec immediately. At indicated time points, the reaction solution (2 μL) was sampled and diluted (1:3125 dilution) into the assay buffer (50 mM citric acid, 176 mM K2HPO4, and 0.01% Tween-20 at pH 5.9). After 2 h the reaction solution was dialyzed three times with 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2). The enzyme was adjusted to the same concentration and sampled for activity. The dilution solutions were assayed with three substrates, resorufin substrate, 4-MU substrate, and natural substrate using the methods described in the examples above without adding compounds.
