Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  LSD1 enzymatic assay
Description:  Briefly, compounds of the present invention were solubilized in DMSO and a series of 10, three-fold serial dilutions were made for each compound in 15% DMSO. The initial starting concentration for the serial dilutions of each compound was 10 μM. Control samples lacking compound, LSD1 enzyme or various reaction components also were prepared and processed in parallel with compound test samples.An aliquot of each serial dilution of test compound was added to a 96 well plate containing 50 nM purified N-truncated LSD1 enzyme (RBC Cat# PDM-11-350), 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.05% CHAPS and 1% DMSO in a 10 microliter reaction volume. The plate was pre-incubated at room temperature for 30 min to which 10 μM of histone 3.3 peptide (aa 1-21) was added to initiate the enzymatic reaction. The reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for one hour. After one hour, 10 μl of a detection mixture of horseradish peroxidase (Sigma Cat #P8375) and Amplex Red (InVitrogen A36006) was added and kinetic measurements were read at 5 minute intervals for a period of 30 minutes using an Envision Multiplate Reader (PerkinElmer; excitation at 535 nM and emmission read at 590 nM). The IC50 value for each compound was determined from each 10-point dose-response curve using GraphPad Prism 4 software with a sigmodial dose response.
