| | Protein kinase assay (Condition A: Thiol Containing Conditions) |
| Description: | For the assays, 5 μl solution from each well of the compound dilution plates/10% DMSO were transferred into the assay plates. The final volume of the assay was 50 μl. All compounds were tested at 10 final assay concentrations in the range from 1×10−04M to 3×10−09M, in singlicate. The final DMSO concentration in the reaction cocktails was 1% in all cases.Recombinant protein kinases: All protein kinases were expressed in Sf9 insect cells or in E. coli as recombinant GST-fusion proteins or His-tagged proteins, either as full-length or enzymatically active fragments. All kinases were produced from human cDNAs and purified by either GSH-affinity chromatography or immobilized metal. Affinity tags were removed from a number of kinases during purification. The purity of the protein kinases was examined by SDS-PAGE/Coomassie staining, the identity was checked by mass spectroscopy.Protein kinase assay: A radiometric protein kinase assay (33PanQinase Activity Assay) was used for measuring the kinase activity of the three protein kinases. All kinase assays were performed in 96-well FlashPlates from PerkinElmer (Boston, Mass., USA) in a 50 μl reaction volume. The reaction cocktail was pipetted in four steps in the following order: 20 μl of assay buffer (standard buffer) 5 μl of ATP solution (in H2O) 5 μl of test compound (in 10% DMSO) 20 μl enzyme/substrate mixThe assay for all protein kinases contained 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 (variable concentrations, corresponding to the apparent ATP-Km of the respective kinase), [γ-33P]-ATP (approx. 9×1005 cpm per well), protein kinase (variable amounts), and substrate (variable amounts). |
