Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzymatic Inhibition Assay
Description:  Enzymatic inhibition of PARP14 was measured using a dissociation-enhanced lanthanide fluorescence immunoassay (DELFIA) monitoring the auto-modification of PARP14 by biotinylated nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (biotin-NAD). 1 μL of a dose response curve of each test compound was spotted in 384-well nickel-coated white microplates (Thermo) using a Mosquito (TTP Labtech). Reactions were performed in a 50 μL volume by adding 40 μL of PARP14 in assay buffer (20 mM HEPES pH==8, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 2 mM DTT and 0.002%0 Tween20), incubating with test compound at 25° C. for 30 min, then adding 10 μL of biotin-NAD (Biolog). The final concentrations of PARP14 and biotin-NAD are 50 nM and 3 μM, respectively. Reactions proceeded at 25° C. for 3 h, then were quenched with 5 μL of 10 mM unmodified nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (Sigma-Aldrich). The quenched reactions were washed 3 times with 100 μL of TBST wash buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl and 0.1% Tween20). Next, to the washed and dried plate was added 25 μL of DELFIA Europium-N1 streptavidin (Perkin Elmer) diluted in DELFIA assay buffer (Perkin Elmer). After a 30 min incubation at 25° C., the plate was washed 5 times with TBST wash buffer. Finally, 25 μL of DELFIA enhancement solution was added. After a 5 min incubation the plate was read on an Envision platereader equipped with a LANCE/DELFIA top mirror (Perkin Elmer) using excitation of 340 nm and emission of 615 nm to measure the amount of Europium present in each well, informing on the amount of biotin-NAD that was transferred in the automodification reaction.
