Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  In Vitro Enzyme Activity
Description:  Reagents:Base Reaction Buffer: 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, 1% DMSOCompound Treatment:The test compound was formulated into a 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, which was diluted into 10 concentrations in 3-fold degression, and placed in a 384-well plate (Cyclic Olefin Copolymer LDV Echo ).Kinase Name: ASK1/MAP3K5 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.)Type: Recombinant Human Full Length Protein, GST-taggedFinal concentration of the enzyme: 20 nMSubstrate: Myelin basic protein, MBP (Active Motif, Carlsbad, Calif.)Final concentration of the substrate: 20 μMExperimental Operations:1. The substrate was dissolved in a freshly prepared base reaction buffer.2. A desired coenzyme was added to the above substrate solution.3. The kinase was added to the substrate solution and mixed slowly.4. The solution of the test compound in DMSO was added to the kinase reaction solution and incubated at room temperature for 20 minutes.5. 33P-ATP (specific activity of 10 μCi/μl) was added to the reaction solution to initiate the reaction.6. Incubated at room temperature for 2 hours.7. A small portion of the reactants was placed onto a P-81 ion exchange filter paper.8. The filter paper was washed three times with 0.75% phosphate buffer to wash off the unbound phosphate, and then the filter paper was dried.9. The radioactivity remaining on the filter paper was determined.10. Kinase activity data was expressed as the ratio of the kinase activity remaining in the test sample to the kinase activity in the vehicle (DMSO).
