Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzymatic Activity In Vitro Assays
Description:  The ability of the compounds of the present disclosure to inhibit ITK was measured using the Caliper assay format, which is an electrophoretic separation of a phosphorylated peptide substrate from unphosphorylated peptide. The enzymatic reaction occurred in a buffer of 100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Triton-X 100, 0.1% Bovine Serum Albumin, and 1% DMSO. Three-fold dilutions of compounds were prepared in DMSO. Compounds were added to enzyme and pre-incubated for 15 minutes prior to reaction. The enzymatic reaction was initiated by addition of phospho-acceptor peptide FAM-GEEPLYWSFPAKKK-NH2 (also known as SRCtide) to 1 μM and ATP to its Km value (ITK: 10 μM). The reaction proceeded for 6 hours and was terminated by addition of EDTA. The assay employed an enzyme concentration of 0.2 nM. The top compound concentration was 5 μM. The amount of phosphorylated substrate was determined by the Caliper instrumentation, and dose-response curves were fit using standard methods to determine the IC50 values.
