| Description: | AKT: A TTP Mosquito liquid handling instrument was used to place 125 nl of the appropriate concentration of inhibitor in 100% DMSO (for a dose response curve calculation) into each well of a 384-well plate. To this reaction components were added to a final volume of 12.5 μl: 0.1 ng/μl His-AKT (Full Length), (Invitrogen, Part # P2999, Lot #641228C). 160 uM ATP (Fluka, 02055) 1 mM DTT (Sigma, D0632) 1 mM MgCl2 (Sigma, M1028) 1 μM substrate peptide (sequence FITC-AHA-GRPRTSSFAEG-NH2), synthesized by Tufts Peptide Synthesis service. 100 mM HEPES pH 7.5 (Calbiochem, 391338) 0.015% Brij-35 (Sigma, B4184)The reaction was incubated for 90 min at 25 C., and then stopped by the addition of 70 μl of Stop buffer (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 0.015% Brij-35, 10 mM EDTA (Sigma, E7889)).The plate was read on a Caliper LC 3000 in an Off-Chip mobility shift assay format, using the following parameters for a 12-sipper chip: screening pressure −2.3 psi, upstream voltage −500, and downstream voltage −3000. These conditions caused unphosphorylated substrate and phosphorylated product peptide to resolve as separate peaks allowing direct measurement of percentage of conversion of substrate to product. |
