Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Biochemical Assay
Description:  Several 2,4-pyrimidinediamine compounds were tested for the ability to inhibit Syk kinase catalyzed phosphorylation of a peptide substrate in a biochemical fluorescenced polarization assay with isolated Syk kinase. In this experiment, Compounds were diluted to 1% DMSO in kinase buffer (20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.1 mg/mL acetylated Bovine Gamma Globulin). Compound in 1% DMSO (0.2% DMSO final) was mixed with ATP/substrate solution at room temperature. Syk kinase (Upstate, Lake Placid N.Y.) was added to a final reaction volume of 20 uL, and the reaction was incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Final enzyme reaction conditions were 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.1 mg/mL acetylated Bovine Gamma Globulin, 0.125 ng Syk, 4 uM ATP, 2.5 uM peptide substrate (biotin-EQEDEPEGDYEEVLE-CONH2, SynPep Corporation). EDTA (10 mM final)/anti-phosphotyrosine antibody (IX final)/fluorescent phosphopeptide tracer (0.5× final) was added in FP Dilution Buffer to stop the reaction for a total volume of 40 uL according to manufacturer's instructions (PanVera Corporation) The plate was incubated for 30 minutes in the dark at room temperature. Plates were read on a Polarion fluorescence polarization plate reader (Tecan). Data were converted to amount of phosphopeptide present using a calibration curve generated by competition with the phosphopeptide competitor provided in the Tyrosine Kinase Assay Kit, Green (PanVera Corporation).
