Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Inhibition Assay
Description:  Assay B: Example compounds as described herein were dispensed with an acoustic liquid handler, Echo 550 (Labcyte) to a maximum volume of 50 nl per well in a 384 well plate. DHODH enzyme assays were performed with 4 nM recombinant human DHODH (purified essentially as described by Walse et. al., Biochemistry, 47, 8929-8936 (2008)). The reaction mixture consisted of 2 mM DL-dihydroorotic acid (#D7003, Sigma-Aldrich), 100 μM 3,4-dimethoxy-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone (#D9150, Sigma-Aldrich), and 200 μM 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol sodium salt (DCIP) (#D1878, Sigma-Aldrich) in enzyme buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.1% Triton X-100, 150 mM KCl) in a final volume of 50 μl per well. A stock solution of 80 mM DCIP was prepared in DMSO just before use. Loss in absorbance by chromogen DCIP was measured at 595 nm at RT every 2 min for an hour with a plate reader (Envision, Perkin Elmer).
