Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  DYRKIA Kinase Activity Assay
Description:  The DYRKIA kinase assay was run using the Ser/Thr 18 peptide Z-lyte assay kit according to manufacturer's instructions (Life Technologies a Division of Thermo-Fisher). This is a non-radioactive assay using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between coumarin and fluorescein to detect kinase activity which is represented as a ratio of coumarin emission/fluorescein emission.Briefly, recombinant DYRKIA kinase, ATP and Ser/Thr peptide 18 were prepared in 1× Kinase buffer to final concentrations of 0.19 μg/mL, 30 μM, and 4 μM respectively. The mixture was allowed to incubate with the representative compounds for one hour at room temperature. All reactions were performed in duplicate. Unphosphorylated ( 0% Control ) and phosphorylated ( 100% control ) forms of Ser/Thr 18 served as control reactions. Additionally, an 11-point dose-response curve of Staurosporine (1 uM top) was run to serve as a positive compound control.
