(Same proportions as HSET/Microtubule working solution (3.3))ATP Working solution is 1 μL 10 mM UltraPure ATP (Promega kit)+999 μL ddH20 gives 10 μM ATP for a 3 μM final assay concentration, stored on ice.Assay procedure in PROXIPLATE 384 PLUS WHITE (Perkin Elmer) plates (Remove 2.4 mL ADP Glo and 4.5 mL Kinase detection reagent from freezer to warm up to rt)Add 3.5 μL BLANK solution to assay plate (column 12)Add 3.5 μL HSET/Microtubule solution (3.3) (columns 1-11 & 13-24)Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 1 min(pre-incubate enzyme and compound for 10 min)Add 1.5 μL of 10 μM ATP to start reaction gives a final [HSET] of 5 nM, [ATP] of 3 μM and [microtubule] of 70 μg/mL, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 1 min and incubated at rt for 80 min.After the 80-minute incubation, stop reaction by adding 5 μL ADP-Glo reagent to all wells. Centrifuge for 1 min at 1000 rpm, leave for 40 min at rt.In the dark/away from direct light, add 10 μL Kinase Detection Reagent (KDR) to all wells, Seal plate with a Topseal (Perkin Elmer Cat #6050185) and centrifuge as above, leave for 40 min at rt covered in foil.
