Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  HTRF Assay
Description:  (1) Assay buffer #1 with 0.0025% Tween and 1 mM DTT was prepared using JNK buffer stock solution.(2) Assay buffer #2 with 0.025% BSA was prepared using the assay buffer #1.(3) Test compound solution preparation: 5× compound solution was prepared using assay buffer #1 with 5% DMSO. The compound solution (10 μl/well) was added to a 384-well plate (Corning, Cat No. 3654).(4) aJNK1, 2 or 3 preparation: aJNK stock (100 μg/ml) at −80° C. was thawed on ice and an aJNK (1.6 ng/ml) solution was prepared using assay buffer #2. The aJNK solution (20 μl/well) was added to the plate and the plate was shaken. The enzyme was incubated with the compound at RT for 10 min.(5) ATP/substrate solution preparation: ATP and substrate stocks were thawed on ice. 2.5×ATP/substrate (e.g., 25 μM or 2.5 mM ATP/50 nM EPIW-1) was prepared using assay buffer #1. The ATP/substrate (20 μl/well) was added to the plate and the plate was shaken. The plate was incubated at RT for 15 min. Note: In an exemplary assay, the final ATP concentration was about 1 mM.(6) EDTA preparation: 30 mM EDTA was prepared using 0.5M EDTA stock and assay buffer #1. The EDTA (10 μl/well) was added to the plate to quench the enzyme reaction and the plate was shaken well.(7) Detection reagent preparation: Eu-63 and SA-XL stocks were thawed on ice. 4× Eu-63/SA-XL (2 nM Eu-63/9.4 nM SA-XL) was prepared using JNK detection buffer. The Eu-63/SA-XL solution (20 μl/well) was added to the plate and the plate was shaken. The plate was incubated at RT for 1 hr before reading the plate on LJL using ratiometric method named HTRF.
