Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  in vitro peptide-based kinase assay
Description:  The inhibition of LRRK2 kinase was assessed using LRRK2 recombinant protein in an in vitro peptide-based kinase assay.ProtocolA radiometric protein kinase assay (33PanQinase Activity Assay) is used for measuring the kinase activity. All assays are performed in 96-well FlashPlates from Perkin Elmer in a 50 μl reaction volume. The reaction cocktail is pipetted in 4 steps in the following order: 10 μl of non-radioactive ATP solution (in H2O) 25 μl of assay buffer/[γ-33P]-ATP mixture 5 μl of test sample in 10% DMSO 10 μl of enzyme/substrate mixtureThe assay for LRRK2 contains 70 mM HEPES-NaOH pH 7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, 3 mM MnCl2, 3 μM Na-orthovanadate, 1.2 mM DTT, 50 μg/ml PEG20000, ATP (0.3 μM), [γ-33P]-ATP (approx. 4×1005 cpm per well), protein kinase LRRK2 (7.3 nM) and substrate (GSK3(14-27), 1.0 μg/50 μl).The kinase is obtained from Invitrogen Corporation.The reaction cocktails were incubated at 30° C. for 60 minutes. The reaction was stopped with 50 μl of 2% (v/v) H3PO4, plates were aspirated and washed two times with 200 μl 0.9% (w/v) NaCl. Incorporation of 33Pi (counting of cpm ) was determined with a microplate scintillation counter.CompoundsThe compounds are dissolved to 10 mM in DMSO. Where needed, solutions are sonicated in a bath sonicator.
