Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Kinase Activity Inhibition Assay
Description:  Inhibition of ASK1 kinase activity was determined radiometrically using 33P substrate incorporation (Reaction Biology Corp., Malvern, Pa.). Briefly, recombinant human ASK1 protein, 20 μM substrate (myelin basic protein (MBP)), and compound (diluted from DMSO stock to give 1% final DMSO) were incubated in Base Reaction buffer (20 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.02% Brij35, 0.02 mg/mL BSA, 0.1 mM Na3VO4, 2 mM DTT, 1% DMSO) at room temperature for 20 minutes. The reaction was initiated by addition of 10 μM 33P-ATP (specific activity 10 μCi/4l). The reaction was then allowed to proceed for 2 hours at room temperature. Upon reaction termination, the mixture was spotted on P81 exchange paper and kinase activity by incorporation of 33P into MBP substrate was detected by filter-binding method.
