| | TAF1-BD2 TR-FRET Binding Assay |
| Description: | His/Flag epitope tagged TAF1-BD21504-1635 was cloned, expressed, and purified to homogeneity. TAF1-BD2 binding and inhibition was assessed by monitoring the engagement of a biotinylated small molecule compound 1000 (Example 48) with the target using the TR-FRET assay technology (Perkin-Elmer). Specifically, in a 384 well ProxiPlate TAF1-BD2 (6 nM final) was combined with biotin-ligand (50 nM final) in 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 50 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP, 0.01% (w/v) BSA, and 0.008% (w/v) Brij-35 either in the presence of DMSO (final 0.2% DMSO) or compound dilution series in DMSO. After 10 minutes incubation at room temperature, a mixture Eu-W1024 Anti-6×His antibody (Perkin Elmer AD0110) and SureLight Allophycocyanin-Streptavidin (APC-SA, Perkin Elmer CR130-100) were added to a final concentrations of 0.2 nMolar antibody and 25 nMolar APC-SA, respectively. After twenty minutes of equilibration, the plates were read on an Envision instrument and IC50s calculated using a four parameter non-linear curve fit. Novel compound 1000 and the TAF1-BD2 TR-FRET Binding Assay described above represent additional embodiments of the invention. |
