Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Kinases Assay
Description:  Btk kinase activity was determined using a homogenous time resolved fluorescence (HTRF) methodology. Measurements were performed in a reaction volume of 15 μL using 384-well assay plates. Kinase enzyme, inhibitor, ATP and 1 μM peptide substrate were incubated in a reaction buffer compose of Hepes50 mM (pH7.0), NaN3 0.02%, BSA 0.01%, Orthocanadate 0.1 mM. After one hour, the kinase reaction was quenched by the addition of E t-labeled antibody and XL-665 in 1×Detection buffer containing 60 mM EDTA (Cisbio), and the mixture was allowed to incubate for one hour. The HTRF signal was measured on a multimode plate reader (EnVision Multilabel Reader, Perkin Elmer) with an excitation wavelength (λEx) of 330 nm and detection wavelengths (λEm) of 615 and 665 nm. Activity was determined by the ratio of the fluorescence at 665 nm to that at 615 nm. For each compound, enzyme activity as measured at various concentrations of compound, Negative control reactions were performed in the absence of inhibitor in two replicates and eight no enzyme controls were used to determine baseline fluorescence levels. IC50s were obtained according to the equation:Y=100/(1+10{circumflex over ( )}((Log IC50−X)*HillSlope)).For BTK assay, [ATP]=80 μM, BTK=3.4 nM.For LYN assay, [ATP]=20 μM, LYN=0.12 n M. For LCK assay, [ATP]=20 μM, LCK=0.2 nM. For BLK assay, [ATP]=20 μM, BLK=0.6 n M.
