Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Biochemical Kinase Inhibition Assay
Description:  Potency determination of biochemical kinase inhibition test. Kinase activity test and IC50 determination. Firstly, 10 ng of recombinant CDK4/Cyclin D1 (Life Technologies PV4204) was diluted in kinase buffer (20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% NP-40, 2 mM DTT), and was incubated with inhibitors at the indicated concentration at room temperature for 30 minutes. The kinase reaction was initiated by adding 1 μg (1.5 μM) of recombinant retinoblastoma protein, 5 μM ATP and 10μ Ci γ-32P-ATP. The reaction was incubated at 30° C. for 20 minutes, and was terminated by adding 2×Laemmli sample buffer, heated at 95° C. for three minutes, and the resulting solution was dissolved with 12% acrylamide SDS-PAGE and autoradiographed. A densitometer (Bio-Rad) was used to quantify the corresponding phosphorylated substrate protein bands. The resulting density values were plotted as a function of the log drug concentration using Prism 4 Graphpad software, IC50 values were determined by plotting a non-linear regression curve with a variable slope.
