Assay: 100P Btk Enzyme Activity Assay: Btk enzymatic activity was determined with the LANCE (Lanthanide Chelate Excite) TR-FRET (lime-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer) assay. In this assay, the potency (IC50) of each compound was determined from an eleven point (1:3 serial dilution; final compound concentration range in assay from 1000 nM to 0.017 nM) titration curve using the following outlined procedure. To each well of a black non-binding surface Corning 384-well microplate (Corning Catalog #3820), 5 nL of compound (2000 fold dilution in final assay volume of 10 μL) was dispensed, followed by the addition of 7.5 μL of 1× kinase buffer (50 mM Hepes 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Brij-35, 1 mM EGTA, 0.05% BSA & 1 mM DTT) containing 13.3 pg/μL (133.3 pM) of 100P Btk enzyme (recombinant protein from baculovirus-transfected Sf9 cells: full-length Btk; MW=79378 Da). Following a 60 minute compound and enzyme incubation, each reaction was initiated by the addition of 2.5 μL 1× kinase buffer containing 8 μM biotinylated A5 peptide (Biotin-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-NH2) (SEQ.ID.NO.: 1) and 100 μM ATP. The final reaction in each well of 10 consists of 100 pM 100P Btk, 2 μM biotin-A5-peptide, and 25 μM ATP. Phosphorylation reactions were allowed to proceed for 45 minutes. Reactions were immediately quenched by the addition of 20 uL of 1× quench buffer (15 mM EDTA, 25 mM Hepes 7.3, and 0.1% Triton X-100) containing detection reagents (0.626 nM of LANCE-Eu-W1024-anti-phosphoTyrosine antibody, PerkinElmer and 86.8 nM of Streptavidin-conjugated Dylight 650, Dyomics/ThermoFisher Scientific). After 60 minutes incubation with detection reagents, reaction plates were read on a PerkinElmer EnVision plate reader using standard TR-FRET protocol. Briefly, excitation of donor molecules (Eu-chelate:anti-phospho-antibody) with a laser light source at 337 nm produces energy that can be transferred to Dylight-650 acceptor molecules if this donor:acceptor pair is within close proximity. Fluorescence intensity at both 665 nm (acceptor) and 615 nm (donor) are measured and a TR-FRET ratio calculated for each well (acceptor intensity/donor intensity). IC50 values were determined by 4 parameter robust fit of TR-FRET ratio values vs. (Log10) compound concentrations.

Target: Beta-secretase 1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P56817
Assay: FRET Based Assay: This assay is a Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Assay (FRET) based assay. The substrate for this assay is an APP derived 13 amino acids peptide that contains the ‘Swedish’ Lys-Met/Asn-Leu mutation of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) beta-secretase cleavage site. This substrate also contains two fluorophores: (7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl) acetic acid (Mca) is a fluorescent donor with excitation wavelength at 320 nm and emission at 405 nm and 2,4-Dinitrophenyl (Dnp) is a proprietary quencher acceptor. The distance between those two groups has been selected so that upon light excitation, the donor fluorescence energy is significantly quenched by the acceptor, through resonance energy transfer. Upon cleavage by BACE1, the fluorophore Mca is separated from the quenching group Dnp, restoring the full fluorescence yield of the donor. The increase in fluorescence is linearly related to the rate of proteolysis.

Assay: High Throughput Biochemical Assay: EGFR activity was measured using KinEASE (Cisbio), a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) immunoassay. In this assay, EGFR-catalyzes the phosphorylation of a universal Tyrosine kinase peptide substrate labeled with XL665. Europium conjugated phosphor-tyrosine specific antibody binds the resulting phosphorylated peptide. Formation of phosphorylated peptide is quantified by TR-FRET with Europium as the donor and XL665 the acceptor. The assay was performed in two main steps. The first step is the kinase reaction step and the second step is the detection step with TR-FRET reagents. In brief, test compounds 1:3 serially diluted in DMSO were delivered into Corning white, low volume, non-binding 384 well plates using the Echo 550 acoustic liquid dispenser (Labcyte®). EGFR enzyme (Human EGFR, cytoplasmic domain [669-1210] from Carna Biosciences Cat. No. 08-115) and substrates TK substrate-biotin (included in Cisbio HTRF KinEASE-TK kit Cat. No. 62TK0PEJ) were dispensed into assay plates using a Multi-Flo (Bio-Tek Instruments). The standard 10 μL reaction mixture contained 6 μM ATP (1×Km) or 12 μM ATP (2×Km), 1 μM biotinylated peptide, 0.3 nM EGFR (for 1×Km ATP) or 0.1 nM EGFR (for 2×Km ATP) in reaction buffer (10 mM MOPs, pH 7.0, 1.5% Glycerol, 0.5 mg/ml BSA, 10 mM Mg-Acetate, 1 mM DTT, 0.025% NP-40). After 60 min of incubation at room temperature, 10 μL of Stop and Detect Solution (1:400 Europium Cryptate labeled anti-phosphorylated peptide antibody solution and 125 nM strepavidin-XL665 Tracer in a 50 mM Hepes pH 7.0 detection buffer containing sufficient EDTA) was added. The plate was then further incubated for over 60 minutes at room temperature and read using an Envision 2103 Multilabeled reader (PerkinElmer) with excitation/emission/FRET emission at 340 nm/615 nm/665 nm, respectively.

Target: Cannabinoid receptor 2 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P34972
Assay: Biological Assay: CB1 and CB2 receptors are Gi-coupled GPCR. Activation of CB1 and CB2 receptors results in a decrease in cAMP production. An inverse agonist of the CB1 or CB2 receptor results in the opposite effect, an increase of cAMP production. The principle of this assay is based on HTRF® technology (Homogeneous Time-Resolved Fluorescence). The method is a competitive immunoassay between native cAMP produced by cells and the cAMP labeled with the fluorophore d2. The tracer binding is quantified by a Mab anti-cAMP labeled with Eu3+TBP-NHS Cryptate (supplied as part of the assay kit). The specific signal (i.e. energy transfer) is inversely proportional to the concentration of cAMP in the standard or sample.

Assay: Time-Resolved Endpoint Proteolysis aAssay: Inhibitor IC50s at purified human autoBACE-2 are determined in a time-resolved endpoint proteolysis assay that measures hydrolysis of the QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Eu-amide FRET peptide substrate (BACE-HTRF assay). BACE-mediated hydrolysis of this peptide results in an increase in relative fluorescence (RFU) at 620 nm after excitation with 320 nm light. Inhibitor compounds, prepared at 3× the desired final concentration in 1×BACE assay buffer (20 mM sodium acetate pH 5.0, 10% glycerol, 0.1% Brij-35) supplemented with 7.5% DMSO are pre-incubated with an equal volume of autoBACE-2 enzyme diluted in 1×BACE assay buffer (final enzyme concentration 1 nM) in black 384-well NUNC plates for 30 minutes at 30° C. The assay is initiated by addition of an equal volume of the QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Eu-amide substrate (200 nM final concentration, Km=8 μM for 4 μM for autoBACE-2) prepared in 1×BACE assay buffer supplemented with 7.5% DMSO and incubated for 90 minutes at 30° C. DMSO is present at 5% final concentration in the assay. Following laser excitation of sample wells at 320 nm, the fluorescence signal at 620 nm is collected for 400 ms following a 50 μs delay on a RUBYstar HTRF plate reader (BMG Labtechnologies). Raw RFU data is normalized to maximum (1.0 nM BACE/DMSO) and minimum (no enzyme/DMSO) RFU values.

Assay: Inhibition Assay: Class I PI3-Ks can be either purchased (p110α/p85α, p110β/p85α, p110δ/p85α from Upstate, and p110γ from Sigma) or expressed as previously described (Knight et al., 2004). IC50 values are measured using either a standard TLC assay for lipid kinase activity (described below) or a high-throughput membrane capture assay. Kinase reactions are performed by preparing a reaction mixture containing kinase, inhibitor (2% DMSO final concentration), buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2), and freshly sonicated phosphatidylinositol (100 μg/ml). Reactions are initiated by the addition of ATP containing 10 μCi of γ-32P-ATP to a final concentration 10 or 100 μM and allowed to proceed for 5 minutes at room temperature. For TLC analysis, reactions are then terminated by the addition of 105 l 1N HCl followed by 160 μl CHCl3:MeOH (1:1). The biphasic mixture is vortexed, briefly centrifuged, and the organic phase is transferred to a new tube using a gel loading pipette tip precoated with CHCl3. This extract is spotted on TLC plates and developed for 3-4 hours in a 65:35 solution of n-propanol:1M acetic acid. The TLC plates are then dried, exposed to a phosphorimager screen (Storm, Amersham), and quantitated. For each compound, kinase activity is measured at 10-12 inhibitor concentrations representing two-fold dilutions from the highest concentration tested (typically, 200 μM). For compounds showing significant activity, IC50 determinations are repeated two to four times, and the reported value is the average of these independent measurements.

Assay: Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Binding: Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) STING agonist binding studies were carried out using a Biacore T200 instrument (GE Healthcare) at 4° C. in a 150 mM KCl, 25 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 1 mM TCEP, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 5% (v/v) glycerol, 0.005% (v/v) P20, 1% (v/v) DMSO running buffer. The recombinant protein immobilized on the streptavidin chip was either human WT or H232R STING. A truncated construct of STING was used in all studies. The STING constructs were comprised of residues 155-341 with both N- and C-terminal truncations; the N-terminal transmembrane domains were removed (1-154), as well as the C-terminal tail (342-379). A highly specific N-terminal biotinylation was achieved enzymatically with the E. coli biotin ligase (BirA) and inclusion of the high-affinity biotinylation peptide AviTag. A Carboxymethylated dextran pre-immobilized with streptavidin (series S Streptavidin CM5 Sensor Chip) was used to capture the biotinylated STING protein. Test compound injections were made at a flow rate of 100 μl per minute with a 60 second association time and variable dissociation time. A three-fold dilution series from a 10 μM starting concentration was used for all test compounds. Data analysis was performed using the BiacoreT200 data evaluation software package (GE Healthcare).

Assay: Radioligand Binding Assay : HEK-293 cells stably expressing rat TAAR1 were maintained at 37° C. and 5% CO2 in DMEM high glucose medium, containing fetal calf serum (10%, heat inactivated for 30 min at 56° C.), penicillin/streptomycin (1%), and 375 μg/ml geneticin (Gibco). Cells were released from culture flasks using trypsin/EDTA, harvested, washed twice with ice-cold PBS (without Ca2+ and Mg2+), pelleted at 1′000 rpm for 5 min at 4° C., frozen and stored at −80° C. Frozen pellets were suspended in 20 ml HEPES-NaOH (20 mM, pH 7.4) containing 10 mM EDTA and homogenized with a Polytron (PT 6000, Kinematica) at 14′000 rpm for 20 s. The homogenate was centrifuged at 48′000×g for 30 min at 4° C. Subsequently, the supernatant was removed and discarded, and the pellet resuspended in 20 ml HEPES-NaOH (20 mM, pH 7.4) containing 0.1 mM EDTA using the Polytron (20 s at 14′000 rpm). This procedure was repeated and the final pellet resuspended in HEPES-NaOH containing 0.1 mM EDTA and homogenized using the Polytron. Typically, aliquots of 2 ml membrane portions were stored at −80° C. With each new membrane batch the dissociation constant (Kd) was determined via a saturation curve. The TAAR1 radioligand 3[H](S)-4-[(ethyl-phenyl-amino)-methyl]-4,5-dihydro-oxazol-2-ylamine (described in WO 2008/098857) was used at a concentration equal to the calculated Kd value, that was usually around 2.3 nM, resulting in the binding of approximately 0.2% of the radioligand and a specific binding representing approximately 85% of the total binding.

UniProt: Q05586
Assay: Biological Assay (standard): NMDA receptors are ion channels that are highly permeable to Ca2+ ions, rendering it possible to monitor NMDA receptor function using cell-based calcium flux assay. In this assay, co-agonists glutamate and glycine are added to cells heterologously expressing human GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors to initiate cellular Ca2+ influx. The time course of the changes in intracellular calcium is measured using a fluorescent dye and a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader) device.Twenty four hours before measurements, the expression of the NMDA receptors in the stable cell line is induced with Tet-On inducible system in the presence of a non-selective NMDA receptor blocker. On the day of the experiment, cell culture media is carefully washed and the cells are loaded with Calcium 5 Dye Kit (Molecular Devices) in dye loading buffer containing 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 0.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4. After 1 h incubation at the room temperature, the dye is washed away with the assay buffer (137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 0.01 mM EDTA, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4) In the FLIPR TETRA reader, various concentrations of the test compounds are added to the cells for 5 min while fluorescence is monitored to detect potential agonist activity. Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to ~EC40 used to maximize the assay's signal window and ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators. A saturating concentration (10 μM) of glycine is also present in the assay. A non-selective NMDA receptor antagonist, (+)MK-801 is used as a positive control for antagonist activity. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Compound potency assays were initiated by adding a 0.5 μL volume of 100% DMSO and serially diluted compounds prepared in 100% DMSO to a Corning (#3574) 384-well, white, non-binding surface microtiter plate (Corning, N.Y.) followed immediately by 10 μL of the ST3-Sox peptide and ATP substrate solution. Kinase reactions were started with the addition of 40 μL of MK-2 enzyme and monitored every 71 seconds for 30-240 minutes at λex360/λem485 in a Synergy2, Synergy4 or Synergy H4 plate reader from BioTek (Winooski, Vt.). At the conclusion of each assay, progress curves from each well were examined for linear reaction kinetics and fit statistics (R2, 95% confidence interval, absolute sum of squares). Initial velocity (0 minutes to +30 minutes) from each reaction was estimated from the slope of a plot of relative fluorescence units vs time (minutes) and normalized to the no enzyme and no inhibitor control groups for % Inhibition. The resulting % Inhibition values were then plotted against inhibitor concentration to estimate IC50 from log[Inhibitor] vs Response, Variable Slope model in GraphPad Prism from GraphPad Software (San Diego, Calif.). Potency results for the compounds tested are shown in Table A in the column entitled MK2 IC50.[Reagent] used:[MK-2]=0.4 nM, [ATP]=1.0 mM and [ST3-Sox]=10 μM (ATP appKM=8-10 μM)

Assay: Enzymatic Assay: TDO2: Recombinant human TDO comprising amino acids 19-407 with a N-terminal hexahistidine tag expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity is incubated at a final concentration of 15 nM in assay buffer consisting of 75 mM phosphate buffer at pH7 supplemented with 100 μM ascorbic acid, 50 U/ml Catalase, 0.01% BSA, and 0.01% Tween 20 (protocol modified from Seegers et al, JBS 2014). Example compounds are serially diluted in DMSO, further diluted in phosphate buffer, and added to the reaction mixture at final concentrations ranging from 10 μM to 0.5 nM. The final DMSO concentration is 0.6%. Following a pre-incubation of 30 minutes at RT, the reaction is started by the addition of L-tryptophan at a final concentration of 200 μM in assay buffer. After 30 minutes of incubation at RT, 3 μL of the reaction mixture are transferred to a 384 deep well plate containing 25 μL of deionized water. 100 μl of 200 nM L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) in cold 100% methanol are added followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. An additional 75 μL of deionized water are then added and followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. The product of the reaction N′-Formylkynurenine (NFK) is quantified by LCMS and normalized to the L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) signal. Samples with 0.6% DMSO (0% effect) and a TDO/IDO inhibitor (100% effect) are used as control samples to set the parameters for the non-linear regression necessary for the determination of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) for each compound. For each compound concentration the percentage of activity compared to 0% and 100% effect is calculated as average±STDEV (each concentration measured in duplicate). IC50 values and curves are generated with XLfit software (IDBS) using Dose-Response One Site model 203 (four parameter logistic curve model). When compounds are measured multiple times, mean values are given.

Assay: TGF-beta 1 Assay: Compound Screening: Each compound was dissolved in DMSO as a 10 mM stock and used to prepare compound source plates. Serial dilution (1:2, 11-point dose-response curves from 10 μM to 1.87 nM) and compound transfer was performed using the ECHO 550 (Labcyte, Sunnyvale, Calif.) into 384-well clear bottom assay plates (Greiner Bio-One) with appropriate DMSO backfill for a final DMSO concentration of 0.1%. LL29 cells were plated at 1,500 cells/well in 80 μl/well F12 medium supplemented with 1% Fetal Bovine Serum. One hour after addition of the cells, TGF-β1 (Peprotech; 20 ng/mL) was added to the plates to induce fibrosis (ref. 1 and 2 above). Wells treated with TGF-β1 and containing DMSO were used as controls. Cells were incubated at 37° C. and 5% CO2 for 4 days. Following incubation for 4 days, SYTOX green nucleic acid stain (Life Technologies [Thermo Fisher Scientific]) was added to the wells at a final concentration of 1 uM and incubated at room temperature for 30 min. Cells were then fixed using 4% formaldehyde (Electron Microscopy Sciences), washed 3 times with PBS followed by blocking and permeabilization using 3% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA; Sigma) and 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma) in PBS. Cells were then stained with antibody specific to α-smooth muscle actin (aSMA; Abcam) (ref. 1 and 2 above) in 3% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA; Sigma) and 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma) in PBS, and incubated overnight at 4° C. Cells were then washed 3 times with PBS, followed by incubation with Alexa Flor-647 conjugated secondary antibody (Life Technologies [Thermo Fisher Scientific]) and DAPI at room temperature for 1 hour. Cells were then washed 3 times with PBS and plates were sealed for imaging. αSMA staining was imaged by excitation at 630 nm and emission at 665 nm and quantified using the Compartmental Analysis program on the CellInsight CX5 (Thermo Scientific). Dead or apoptotic cells were excluded from analysis based on positive SYTOX green staining. % of total cells positive for αSMA were counted in each well and normalized to the average of 11 wells treated with TGF-β1 on the same plate using Dotmatics' Studies Software. The normalized averages (fold change over untreated) of 3 replicate wells for each compound concentration were used to create dose-responses curves and EC50 values were calculated using non-linear regression curve fit in the Dotmatics' Studies Software.

Cells were suspended in 10 ml of respective complete growth media (F12(1×) HAM media (Gibco; Cat#11765); 10% HI-FBS (Gibco; Cat#10082); 0.1 mg/ml Hygromycin B (Invitrogen; Cat#10687-010) [for hFPR1 only]; 0.2 mg/ml Zeocin (Invitrogen; Cat#R25001) [for hFPR1 only]; 0.4 mg/ml Geneticin (Gibco; Cat#10131) [for hFPR2-Aq only]; 0.25 mg/ml Zeocin (Invitrogen; Cat#R25001) [for hFPR2-Aq only]) in a 15 ml centrifuge tube. The cell viability was checked with the help of Trypan Blue dye. Upon washing the cells, those were plated in a 384-well sterile clear bottom black plate (Greiner Bioone Cat#781091) so that, each well contained 10,000 cells in 40 μl complete growth media. The plate was incubated in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37° C. for 18 hours.Before assay on the next day, the cell plating media was removed from each well of the plate by decanting and gentle tapping. 30 μl, 0.11 of 0.5× Calcium 5 dye solution (0.5×FLIPR Calcium 5 dye (Molecular devices Cat# R8186); HBSS (Invitrogen; Cat#14025); 20 mM HEPES (Sigma; Cat#H0887); 2.5 mM Probenecid (Sigma; Cat#P8761); 0.025% Pluronic F-127 (Sigma; Cat#P2443); pH adjusted to 7.4) was added to each well. The plate was then incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes. Following which the plate was equilibrated at room temperature for 10 minutes before placing it in a 384 well FLIPR for assay. Compounds were dissolved in DMSO and serially diluted following 11 point half log (3.16 fold) dilution with a starting concentration of 2 mM (Final assay concentration 10 μM). Aliquots of above mentioned each dilution was mixed with assay buffer (HBSS (Invitrogen; Cat#14025); 20 mM HEPES (Sigma; Cat#H0887); 2.5 mM Probenecid (Sigma; Cat#P8761); 0.05% gelatin (Sigma; Cat#G1890); 0.1% BSA (Sigma; Cat#A3059); pH adjusted to 7.4) just before performing the assay. Compounds were added to the respective wells of the assay ready cell plate with the help of the FLIPR (FLIPR Tetra) and fluorescence readings were captured for 5 minutes to measure any agonistic response of the compounds. The increase in fluorescence readings from the basal reading in presence of the compounds were compared with that of the control wells (wells having no compound) to calculate the agonistic activity of the compounds. The EC50 values of the compounds were determined using the Graph pad Prism software.

Target: Tyrosine-protein kinase JAK2 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60674
Assay: Biochemical JAK Assay: A panel of four LanthaScreen JAK biochemical assays (JAK1, 2, 3 and Tyk2) were carried in a common kinase reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 0.01% Brij-35, 10 mM MgCl2, and 1 mM EGTA). Recombinant GST-tagged JAK enzymes and a GFP-tagged STAT1 peptide substrate were obtained from Life Technologies.Serially diluted compounds were pre-incubated with each of the four JAK enzymes and the substrate in white 384-well microplates (Corning) at ambient temperature for lh. ATP was subsequently added to initiate the kinase reactions in 10 μL total volume, with 1% DMSO. The final enzyme concentrations for JAK1, 2, 3 and Tyk2 are 4.2 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, and 0.25 nM respectively; the corresponding Km ATP concentrations used are 25 μM, 3 μM, 1.6 μM, and 10 μM; while the substrate concentration is 200 nM for all four assays. Kinase reactions were allowed to proceed for 1 hour at ambient temperature before a 10 μL preparation of EDTA (10 mM final concentration) and Tb-anti-pSTAT1 (pTyr701) antibody (Life Technologies, 2 nM final concentration) in TR-FRET dilution buffer (Life Technologies) was added. The plates were allowed to incubate at ambient temperature for lh before being read on the EnVision reader (Perkin Elmer). Emission ratio signals (520 nm/495 nm) were recorded and utilized to calculate the percent inhibition values based on DMSO and background controls.For dose-response analysis, percent inhibition data were plotted vs. compound concentrations, and IC50 values were determined from a 4-parameter robust fit model with the Prism software (GraphPad Software). Results were expressed as pIC50 (negative logarithm of IC50) and subsequently converted to pKi (negative logarithm of dissociation constant, Ki) using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.Test compounds having a higher pKi value in each of the four JAK assays show greater inhibition of JAK activity. Compounds of the invention tested in this assay typically exhibited pKi values between about 7 and about 10.3

Assay: Prolabel Quantification of IKZF1, IKZF2, or GSPT1 Protein Levels in 293GT Cells: The Prolabel system from DiscoverX was used to develop high-throughput and quantitative assays to measure changes in IKZF1, IKZF2, and GSPT1 protein levels in response to compounds. The prolabel tag is derived from the alpha fragment of beta galactosidase and has the following protein sequence: mssnslavvlqrrdwenpgvtqlnrlaahppfaswrnseeartdrpsqqlrslnge. The complementary fragment of beta-galactosidase (from DiscoverX), is added to the prolabel tag to form an active beta galactosidase enzyme whose activity can be precisely measured. In this way, the levels of a fusion protein with the prolabel tag can be quantified in cell lysates.Lentiviral vectors, based on the Invitrogen pLenti6.2/V5 DEST backbone, were constructed that placed the prolabel tag upstream of IKZF1, IKZF2, or GSPT1 and expressed the fusion protein from a CMV promoter.To ensure moderate and consistent expression of the prolabel fusion proteins across all cells in the population, stable cell lines were constructed from cells expressing a single copy of the construct. Lentivirus packaged with the constructs was made using the Virapower kit from Invitrogen. Strongly adherent 293GT cell, GripTite 293 MSR cells from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Catalog number: R79507), were infected with the virus at low multiplicity of infection and selected by 5 μg/mL blasticidin for 2 weeks.

InChIKey: YDFSTSWRHBVFPJ-UHFFFAOYSA-N
Target: Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 17 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P78536
Assay: hTACE assay: The basis for the assay is the cleavage of the substrate 5FAM-LAQAVRSSSRK-5TAMRA (SEQ ID No 3) (Anaspec, custom 34891) by human TACE (R&D SYSTEMS INC., Cat#930-ADB).For the dose response (10 point), 4 μL of a dilution series of compound (2 mM highest concentration, 1/5 dilution in DMSO further diluted 1 in 10 in water, corresponding to a final highest concentration of 20 μM), is transferred to 384 well Fluotrac 200 plate (Greiner, cat#781076) and incubated at room temperature for 30 min with a 26 μL buffer solution (25 mM Tris pH8.0, 2.5 μM ZnCl2, 0.01% CHAPS) containing TACE (0.05 ng/μL) (it will be appreciated by the skilled person that the potency read out is independent of the enzyme concentration).The reaction is initiated by adding to the assay plate 5FAM-LAQAVRSSSRK-5TAMRA (5 μL, 5 μM, Anaspec) in the same buffer.Finally, the fluorescence is read on the Envision (Perkin Elmer) after an incubation of 75 min at room temperature (Excitation 485 nm, Emission 530).
