Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzymatic Assay
Description:  Briefly, specific kinase/substrate pairs along with required cofactors were prepared in reaction buffer. Compounds were delivered into the reaction, followed 15-20 minutes later by addition of a mixture of ATP (Sigma, St. Louis Mo.) and 33P ATP (Perkin Elmer, Waltham Mass.) to a final concentration of 10 μM. Reactions were carried out at room temperature for 120 min, followed by spotting of the reaction mixtures onto P81 ion exchange filter paper (Whatman Inc., Piscataway, N.J.). Unbound phosphate was removed by extensive washing of filters in 0.75% phosphoric acid. After subtraction of background derived from control reactions containing inactive enzyme, kinase activity data was expressed as the percent of remaining kinase activity in test samples compared to vehicle (dimethyl sulfoxide) reactions. IC50 values and curve fits were obtained using Prism (GraphPad Software). Reaction Conditions: Buffer Conditions: 20 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.02% Brij35, 0.02 mg/mL BSA, 0.1 mM Na3VO4, 2 mM DTT, and 1% DMSO. ATP concentration: 10 μM. Reaction Time: 2 hours. Compound 3 was tested at 10 concentrations as follows with a comparison to the common kinase inhibitor reference compound staurosporine. Compounds were tested in a 10-point IC50 mode with 3-fold serial dilution starting at 10 uM. Control Compound was tested in a 10-point IC50 with 3-fold serial dilution starting at 20 uM. All kinase reactions were performed at 10 uM ATP. Test concentrations are provided below in molar units (M).
