Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzyme Assay
Description:  The CD38 enzyme assay was performed as described previously (Becherer, J D, et al. J. Med. Chem. 2015, 58, 7021-7056). Briefly, 200 nL of a dose response titration of each test compound dissolved in 100% DMSO was spotted in clear polystyrene 384-well plate (Thermo #264704) using a Mosquito (TTP Labtech). A 10 μL solution of 2 nM CD38 (BPS Biosciences #71227) suspended in 100 mM HEPES ((4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid, pH=7.5), 4 mM EDTA (2,2′2″,2′″-(ethane-1,2-diyldinitrilo)tetraacetic acid) and 1 mM CHAPS (3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate) was incubated with test compound at 25° C. for 30 min. The enzyme reaction was initiated by adding 10 μL of 400 μM nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), 1000 μM (E)-2-(2-(pyridin-4-ylmethylene)hydrazinyl)pyridine in buffer containing 5 mM sodium acetate (pH=5.2) and 1 mM CHAPS. The reactions were incubated at 25° C. and the absorbance at 405 nm was measured after 15 minutes and 60 min on an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer) The absorbance values from the 15 min timepoint were subtracted from the absorbance value from the 60 min timepoint.
