Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  BTK Inhibitory Activity
Description:  With regard to the setting of the conditions for a method for measuring the inhibitory activity of a compound against BTK kinase activity in vitro, it is described in the consumable reagent supplies price list for LabChip (registered trademark) series of PerkinElmer, Inc. that FL-PEPTIDE 2 corresponds to a substrate peptide for the measurement of BTK kinase activity. Therefore, FL-PEPTIDE 2 was used as a substrate. The purified recombinant human BTK protein used in the test was purchased from Carna Biosciences, Inc.With regard to the measurement of the inhibitory activity of the compounds, firstly, the compounds of the present invention were diluted stepwise with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Subsequently, BTK protein, a substrate peptide (final concentration was 1 μM), magnesium chloride (final concentration was 10 mM), ATP (final concentration was 45 μM), and a DMSO solution of the compounds of the present invention (final concentration of DMSO was 5%) were added to a buffer solution for kinase reaction (20 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 2 mM dithiotheitol, 0.01% Triton X-100), and after the solution was incubated for 40 minutes at 25° C., a kinase reaction was carried out. The reaction was terminated by adding EDTA thereto in order to obtain a final concentration of 30 mM. Finally, a substrate peptide that was not phosphorylated (S) and a phosphorylated peptide (P) were separated and detected by microchannel capillary electrophoresis using a LabChip EZ Reader II (PerkinElmer, Inc.). The amounts of phosphorylation reaction were determined from the respective peak heights of S and P, and the compound concentration at which the phosphorylation reaction could be suppressed in 50% was defined as the IC50 value (nM).
