| Description: | HIS-tagged RORγ-LBD protein was expressed in SF9 cells using a baculovirus expression system. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by glutathione sepharose chromatography. Separately, SF9 cells not expressing recombinant protein were lysed in TBS buffer (25 mM Tris, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl) under sonication. The lysate was added to the purified RORγ-LBD in a volume equivalent of 0.75 μL lysate (from 30,000 SF9 cells) per 75 femtomol of RORγ-LBD protein. The resulting mixture was diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT, 0.01% BSA) to obtain RORγ-LBD protein at a final concentration of 3 nM.Compounds to be tested were injected to the assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, Calif.).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-CPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSPS) was prepared in assay buffer and added to each well (100 nM final concentration). A solution of Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody (1.25 nM final concentration) and APC-conjugated streptavidin (8 nM final concentration) were also added to each well.The final assay mixture was incubated overnight at 4° C., and the fluorescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader: (Excitation filter=340 nm; APC emission=665 nm; Europium emission=615 nm; dichroic mirror=D400/D630; delay time=100 μs, integration time=200 μs). The EC50 value for test compounds was calculated from the quotient of the fluorescence signal at 665 nm divided by the fluorescence signal at 615 nm |
