Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  TR-FRET Assays for XIAP BIR2
Description:  For the Bir2 assay, 3.5 nanomolar of 6× Histidine-tagged BIR2 domain (6× Histidine disclosed as SEQ ID NO: 25), corresponding to amino acids 124-240 of XIAP, was mixed with 3.6 nM of the peptide AVPIAQKSEK-(ε-biotin)-OH (SEQ ID NO: 24) 1:2 TFA, in the presence of 50 mM Tris-Cl, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) and 0.1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin (BSA). Following a 45 min. incubation at 37° C., Europium-Streptavidin (Eu-8044 streptavidin, PerkinElmer) and Allophycocyanin conjugated anti-Histidine antibody (Columbia Biosciences) were added to a final concentration of 0.6 nM and 1 nM, respectively. Time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) signals were measured 1 hour later at room temperature. Test compound potency was assessed at 10 serially diluted concentrations. Percentage of inhibition at each concentration was determined to generate an IC50 value for each test compound.
