Assay: Enzymatic Assay: IDO1: Recombinant full-length human IDO1 with a N-terminal hexahistidine tag expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity is incubated at a final concentration of 2 nM in assay buffer consisting of 37.5 mM phosphate buffer at pH6.5 supplemented with 10 mM sodium L-ascorbate, 0.45 μM methylene blue, 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 enzyme 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 5 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: Human Vanin-1 Enzyme Assay 1: The vanin-1 protein was prepared in-house from a construct expressing the extracellular domain of human vanin-1 (GenBank ID NM_004666) preceded N-terminally by the honey bee melittin signal peptide, a GSG linker sequence, a His6X tag and a FLAG tag. The secreted, soluble enzyme was purified from the conditioned medium from a CHO cell line stably expressing the resulting protein. Enzyme purification was performed through sequential Ni NTA and size-exclusion chromatography steps.The test inhibitors were solubilized in DMSO to a stock concentration of 30 mM. On the day of the assay, dose response plates were prepared by diluting the inhibitors in DMSO at compound concentration 200-fold the final in-assay concentration. Intermediate concentrations were prepared by diluting in DMSO in a four-fold series for a total of 11 data points.To prepare a working solution of human vanin-1, the enzyme was diluted to 33.3 pM in the assay buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris-HCl pH=8.0, 50 mM KCl, 0.005% Brij-35 and 1.6 mM cysteamine. To begin the assay 100 nL was transferred from the compound plate to the assay plate. Next, 15 μL of the vanin-1 working solution were transferred to the assay plate. The inhibitor and enzyme were incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. The enzyme reaction was then initiated by the addition of 5 μL of 200 μM pantetheine 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin prepared in assay buffer. The final concentrations in the assay were 25 pM human vanin-1 and 50 uM substrate. The final concentration of DMSO was 0.5%. The assay plates were incubated for 60 minutes and before they were read on a Perkin Elmer EnVision Model 2103 using a 405 nm excitation wavelength and a 510 nm emission wavelength for detection.

Target: Cyclin-dependent kinase 2/cyclin E1 (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P24864
Assay: Biochemical Assay: The purpose of CDK2/Cyclin E1 assay is to evaluate the inhibition (% inhibition, Kiapp and Ki values) of small molecule inhibitors by using a fluorescence-based microfluidic mobility shift assay. CDK2/Cyclin E1 full length catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the substrate peptide FL-Peptide-18 (5-FAM-QSPKKG-CONH2, CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.) (SEQ ID NO:1). The mobility shift assay electrophoretically separates the fluorescently labeled peptides (substrate and phosphorylated product) following the kinase reaction. Both substrate and product are measured and the ratio of these values is used to generate % conversion of substrate to product by the LabChip EZ Reader. Wild-type CDK2/wild-type full length Cyclin E1 enzyme complex was produced in-house (baculoviral expression, LJIC-2080/LJIC-2103) and phosphorylated by CDK7/Cyclin H1/Matl enzyme complex with CDK2:CDK7 ratio of 50:1 (concentration mg/mL) in the presence of 10 mM MgCl2 and 5 mM ATP at room temperature for one hour. Typical reaction solutions (50 μL final reaction volume) contained 2% DMSO (±inhibitor), 4 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 150 μM ATP (ATP Km=67.4 μM), 0.005% Tween-20, 3 μM FL-Peptide-18, and 0.36 nM (catalytically competent active site) phosphorylated wild-type full length CDK2/Cyclin E1 enzyme complex in 25 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.15. The assay was initiated with the addition of ATP, following a fifteen minutes pre-incubation of enzyme and inhibitor at room temperature in the reaction mixture. The reaction was stopped after 45 minutes at room temperature by the addition of 50 μL of 80 mM EDTA.

Assay: Inhibitory Activity Assay: IMAP TR-FRET Screening Express Kit (R8160) was obtained from Molecular Devices. CHK1 kinase (02-117, Carna Bio), FAM-labeled CHK1tide (R7185, Molecular Devices), and ATP were diluted with an assay buffer so that the final concentration would be 4 μg/mL, 2 μM, and 20 μM, respectively. FAM-PKAtide (R7255, Molecular Devices) and FAM-Phospho-PKAtide (R7304, Molecular Devices) were admixed after dilution, and calibration standard systems for phosphorylation levels from 0 to 100% were created. 5 μL of a compound dissolved in a 0.4% DMSO solution was added to a 384 well plate. A compound study group to which 5 μL of each of CHK1, CHK1tide, and ATP was added, and a standard group to which 20 μL of standard was added were created, and subjected to a kinase reaction for 3 hours at 30° C. Subsequently, 60 μL of Binding Reagent (80% Buffer A, 20% Buffer B, 1:600 Binding Reagent, 1:400 Tb-Donor) was added for a binding reaction for 2 hours at room temperature. SpectraMax Paradigm (Molecular Devices) was used to obtain fluorescence intensity of 520 nm or 490 nm as of 340 nm excitation. The standard was used to compute the phosphorylation level of CHK1tide, and the kinase activity was found by using the equation described below while assuming the phosphorylation level of the DMSO treated group as 100%, and the IC50 value corresponding to the concentration of the evaluated compound indicating kinase activity of 50% was calculated.

Target: Cathepsin D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P07339
Assay: In-Vitro Fluorescence Assay: In order to identify modulators of cathepsin D activity, a continuous enzymatic test was carried out with a synthetic peptide which carries a fluorescent group (MCA=(7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl) which is quenched by energy transfer from a Dpn (2,4 dinitrophenyl) group on the same molecule, in Greiner 384-well nb microtitre plates. Cleavage of the peptidic substrate by cathepsin D causes an increase in the fluorescence intensity. In order to determine the efficacy of substances, the time-dependent increase in the fluorescence intensity in the presence of the substance was compared with the time-dependent increase in fluorescence in the absence of substances. The reference substance used was pepstatin A (Sigma-Aldrich). The substrate used was MCA-GKPILFFRLK(Dnp)d-RNH2 (Enzo Life Sciences, Lörrach). The enzyme employed was cathepsin D isolated from the human liver (Sigma-Aldrich) in a final concentration of 1.4 nM. The test was carried out in 100 mM sodium acetate buffer, 1.25% (v/v) of DMSO, 0.25% (w/v) of Chaps, pH 5.5. 2 μl of each substance solution with serially diluted substance concentration were added to in each case 4 μl of cathepsin D solution and incubated at room temperature for 10 min. The reaction was started by addition of 2 μl of substrate solution (final concentration 5 μM). After carrying out a starting-point fluorescence measurement (excitation wavelength 340 nm/emission wavelength 450 nm) using an Envision multilabel reader (Perkin Elmer), the reaction was incubated at room temperature for 60 min. The amount of peptide fragment cleaved off during the reaction time was subsequently measured by determination of the increase in the fluorescence intensity at 450 nm (excitation wavelength 340 nm).

UniProt: Q00987
Assay: MDM2-p53 Interaction Using a 96-Well Plate Binding Assay (ELISA): The ELISA assay was performed in streptavidin coated plates which were preincubated with 200 μl per well of 1 μg ml−1 biotinylated IP3 peptide. The plates were ready to use for MDM2 binding after washing the plate with PBS.Compounds and control solutions in DMSO aliquoted in 96-well plates were pre-incubated in a final 2.5-5% (v/v) DMSO concentration at room temperature (for example 20° C.) for 20 min with 190 μl aliquots of optimized concentrations of in vitro translated MDM2, before transfer of the MDM2-compound mixture to the b-IP3 streptavidin plates, and incubation at 4° C. for 90 min. After washing three times with PBS to remove unbound MDM2, each well was incubated at 20° C. for 1 hour with a TBS-Tween (50 mM Tris pH7.5; 150 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20 nonionic detergent) buffered solution of primary mouse monoclonal anti-MDM2 antibody (Ab-5, Calbiochem, used at a 1/10000 or 1/200 dilution depending on the antibody stock solution used), then washed three times with TBS-Tween before incubation for 45 mins at 20° C. with a TBS-Tween buffered solution of a goat-anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated secondary antibody (used at 1/20000 or 1/2000 depending on the antibody stock solution). The unbound secondary antibody was removed by washing three times with TBS-Tween. The bound HRP activity was measured by enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL, Amersham Biosciences) using the oxidation of the diacylhydrazide substrate, luminol, to generate a quantifiable light signal. The percentage of MDM2 inhibition at a given concentration is calculated as the [1−(RLU detected in the compound treated sampleRLU negative DMSO control)÷(RLU of DMSO positive and negative controls)]×100 or as the (RLU detected in the compound treated sample÷RLU of DMSO controls)×100. The IC50 was calculated using a plot of % MDM2 inhibition vs concentration and is the average of two or three independent experiments.

Assay: Btk Enzyme Activity Assay: BTK enzymatic activity was determined with the LANCE (Lanthanide Chelate Excite) TR-FRET (Time-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 1 μM 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 5.09 pg/μL (66.67 pM) of BTK enzyme (recombinant protein from baculovirus-transfected Sf9 cells: full-length BTK, 6HIS-tag cleaved). Following a 60 minute compound & 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 μL consists of 50 pM hBTK, 2 μM biotin-A5-peptide, and 25 μM ATP. Phosphorylation reactions were allowed to proceed for 120 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.

Assay: Serum Binding Analysis: In order to more properly assess the binding efficacy of the compounds, radioligand binding assays were carried out in the presence of 100% human serum to more accurately reflect the in vivo environment. While observed IC50 values are typically lower than those reported for buffer binding assays, the relevance of the assay for ranking of compound efficacy is enhanced. Target compounds were tested to determine their ability to bind with CXCR7 sites on MCF-7 and/or MDA-MB-435S CXCR7 transfected cells. Efficiency-maxim/zed radioligand binding using filtration protocols as described in Dairaghi D J, et al., HHV8-encoded vMIP-I selectively engages chemokine receptor CCR5. Agonist and antagonist profiles of viral chemokines., J. Biol. Chem. 1999 Jul. 30; 274(31): 21569-74 and Gosling J, et al., Cutting edge: identification of a novel chemokine receptor that binds dendritic cell- and T cell-active chemokines including ELC, SLC, and TECK, J. Immunol. 2000 Mar. 15; 164(6):2851-6 was used.In these assays, MCF-7 and/or MDA-MB-435S cells were interrogated with the target compounds and the ability of these compounds to displace 125 I radiolabeled SDF-1 was assessed using the protocol described in Dairaghi and Gosling. The target compounds were added to the plate to the indicated concentration followed by addition of cells and radiolabeled chemokine (125I SDF-1), both in the following medium (human AB serum with 10 mM HEPES added to stabilize at pH 7.4). All assays were then incubated for 3 hrs at 4° C. with gentle agitation. Following incubation in all binding assays, reactions were aspirated onto PEI-treated GF/B glass filters (Packard) using a cell harvester (Packard) and washed twice (25 mM HEPES, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM CaCl2, 5 mM MgCl2, adjusted to pH 7.1). Scintillant (MicroScint 10, Packard) was added to the wells, and the filters were counted in a Packard Topcount scintillation counter. Data were analyzed and plotted using GraphPad Prism (GraphPad Software).

Assay: Measurement of Orexin Type 2 Receptor Agonist Activity: Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) dhfr-cells forcibly expressing human orexin type 2 receptor (hOX2R) were seeded in each well of Black clear bottom plate (384 wells) (Becton, Dickinson and Company) by 10,000 cells, and cultured for 16 hr in an MEM-alpha (Nikken-Bio Co., Ltd.) medium containing 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.5 g/ml G418 (all above Invitrogen), and 10% fetal calf serum (Thermo), under the conditions of 37° C., 5% CO2. After removal of the medium, 30 μL of assay buffer 1 (0.1% bovine serum albumin (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), 1.25 mM probenecid, 10% B2-Quencher, 2.5 μg/mL Fluo-4AM, 10 mM HEPES (DOJINDO)) was added, and the cells were incubated for 60 min under the conditions of 37° C., 5% CO2. A test compound was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide to 10 mM, and then diluted with assay buffer 2 (20 mM HEPES, Hanks' balanced salt solution (Invitrogen), 0.1% bovine serum albumin). For the reaction, a test compound solution (10 μL) was added using Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader TETRA (FLIPR TETRA; manufactured by Molecular Devices), a fluorescence value (excitation wavelength 488 nm, measurement wavelength 570 nm) of each well was measured every one second for 1 min, and the agonist activity was determined using the area of the fluorescence value as an indicator of intracellular Ca2+ concentration. The agonist activity of the test compound was calculated assuming that the fluorescence value of the well added with only the dilution buffer was 0% and the fluorescence value of the well added with 10 nM human orexin B (PEPTIDE INSTITUTE, INC.) buffer was 100%. The agonist activity values EC50 and Emax of each compound are shown below. As used herein, Emax indicates the value at 30 uM concentration when orexin B is converted to a full agonist (maximum value of agonist activity: 100%). As is clear from the results, the compound of the present invention was shown to have an agonist activity on hOX2R.

Target: Nuclear receptor ROR-gamma (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biological Assay: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., biochemical TR-FRET assay. In such an assay, interaction of cofactor-derived peptides with human RORgammaT-Ligand Binding Domain (LBD) can be measured. The TR-FRET technique is a sensitive biochemical proximity assay that will give information concerning the interaction of a ligand with the LBD, in the presence of cofactor-derived peptides (Zhou et al., Methods 25:54-61, 2001).To identify novel antagonists of RORgammaT, an assay was developed which employs the interaction of RORgammaT with its co-activator peptide SRC1_2. This peptide mimics the recruitment of co-activators to RORgammaT through its interaction with the LXXLL (SEQ ID NO:1) (e.g., NR box) motifs (Xie et al., J. Immunol. 175: 3800-09, 2005; Kurebayashi et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 315: 919-27, 2004; Jin et al., Mol. Endocrinology 24:923-29, 2010). The RORγ-Ligand Binding Domain TR-FRET Assay was run according to the following protocol.HIS-tagged RORγ-LBD protein was expressed in SF9 cells using a baculovirus expression system. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by glutathione sepharose chromatography. Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed and the lysate was added to the purified RORγ-LBD at 0.25 μl lysate (from 10,000 SF9 cells)/nM purified protein. The mixture was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT) to obtain RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM in 384-well assay plate.Compounds to be tested were injected to the assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, CA).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-CPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSPS) (SEQ ID NO:2) was prepared in assay buffer and added to each well (100 nM final concentration). A solution of Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody (1.25 nM final concentration) and APC conjugated streptavidin (8 nM final concentration) were also added to each well.The final assay mixture was incubated overnight at 4° C., and the fluorescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader: (Excitation filter=340 nm; APC emission=665 nm; Europium emission=615 nm; dichroic mirror=D400/D630; delay time=100 μs, integration time=200 μs). IC50 values for test compounds were calculated from the quotient of the fluorescence signal at 665 nm divided by the fluorescence signal at 615 nm.

The homogenate was centrifuged at 20,000 rpm (48,000 g) and the supernatant was discarded. The membrane pellets were resuspended in buffer containing 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 2 mM EDTA and stored in aliquots at −80° C. after protein concentration determination.Membranes (2 μg/well) and 0.03 nM final concentration of 33P-S1P ligand (1 mCi/ml, Perkin Elmer or American Radiolabeled Chemicals) diluted in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2), 0.5% fatty acid free BSA (bovine serum albumin), 1 mM NaF) were added to the compound plates (384 Falcon v-bottom plate (0.5 μl/well in a 11 point, 3-fold dilution). Binding was performed for 45 minutes at room temperature, terminated by collecting the membranes onto 384-well Millipore FB filter plates, and radioactivity was measured by TOPCOUNT®. The competition data of the test compounds over a range of concentrations was plotted as percentage inhibition of radioligand specific binding. The IC50 is defined as the concentration of competing ligand needed to reduce specific binding by 50%.

Reactions were carried out in 100 μL reaction volumes containing 36 μM ATP in kinase buffer (50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.4, 20 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM MnCl2 and 0.2 mM Na3VO4). Test compounds were reconstituted in 100% DMSO and added to the reaction to give a final DMSO concentration of 5%. Reactions were initiated by the addition 20 μl per well of kinase buffer containing 200-300 ng purified cytoplasmic domain PDGFR-b protein (Millipore). Following a 60 minute incubation at 30° C., the reactions were washed 2 mls per well PBS-T. 100 μl of a monoclonal anti-phosphotyrosine antibody-peroxidase conjugate diluted 1:10,000 in PBS-T was added to the wells for 30 minutes. Following a 2 mls per well wash with PBS-Tween-20, 100 μl of O-Phenylenediamine Dihydrochloride in phosphate-citrate buffer, containing urea hydrogen peroxide, was added to the wells for 7-10 minutes as a colorimetric substrate for the peroxidase. The reaction was terminated by the addition of 100 μl of 2.5N H2SO4 to each well and read using a microplate ELISA reader set at 492 nm.

Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assays: HEK-Blue-cells (Invivogen) overexpressing human TLR7, TLR8 or TLR9 receptors were used for screening inhibitors of these receptors using an inducible SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. Briefly, cells are seeded into Greiner 384 well plates (15000 cells per well for TLR7, 20,000 for TLR8 and 25,000 for TLR9) and then treated with test compounds in DMSO to yield a final dose response concentration range of 0.05 nM-50 μM. After a 30 minute compound pre-treatment at room temperature, the cells are then stimulated with a TLR7 ligand (gardiquimod at a final concentration of 7.5 μM), TLR8 ligand (R848 at a final concentration of 15.9 μM) or TLR9 ligand (ODN2006 at a final concentration of 5 nM) to activate NF-κB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP. After a 22 hour incubation at 37° C., 5% CO2, SEAP levels are determined with the addition of HEK-Blue Detection reagent (Invivogen), a cell culture medium that allows for detection of SEAP, according to manufacturer's specifications. The percent inhibition is determined as the % reduction in the HEK-Blue signal present in wells treated with agonist plus DMSO alone compared to wells treated with a known inhibitor.

Assay: Inhibition Assay: In order to have an assay method more conducive to high-throughput screening than those published for measuring the NAE hydrolyzing activity of NAAA, we developed the fluorogenic PEA analog N-(4-methyl coumarin)palmitamide (PAMCA), which is hydrolyzed to fluorescent 7-amino-4-methyl coumarin (AMC) and palmitic acid. For three point concentration inhibition assays with hNAAA the following procedure is used. Purified activated NAAA (final concentration of 0.25 μg/mL) is incubated in assay buffer (100 mM citrate-phosphate buffer, pH 4.5, 3 mM DTT, 0.1% Triton X-100, 0.05% BSA, and 150 mM NaCl) made up to a total volume of 180 μL, followed by addition of the compound dissolved in 10 μL DMSO (along with DMSO neat for the control sample) with the final concentrations for each compound of 100, 10, and 1 μM, in triplicate on a 96 well plate. These samples are allowed to incubate for 15 min at room temperature and then 10 μL of a PAMCA stock solution in DMSO (final PAMCA concentration [5 μM]) was added. After 5 minutes of agitation on a shaking plate, the reaction is allowed to proceed at 37° C. for 120 minutes, with fluorescence readings taken every 10 minutes at a wavelength of 460 nm (using an excitation wavelength of 360 nm) on a Synergy HT Plate Reader using Gen5 software from Bio-Tek. The enzyme activity is calculated by converting the relative fluorescence units to AMC formed, using a standard curve of AMC. For compounds that inhibit hNAAA in range IC50 <1 μM full inhibition curves using eight different concentrations of inhibitor (8 point assay) are generated. The assay procedure used is the same as the three point assay. For ostensibly covalent compounds (as observed by a significant decrease in the slope of a plot of fluorescence vs. time in three point screen) samples are allowed to incubate for 2 hours at 37° C., instead of 15 minutes, before addition of 10 μL of a PAMCA stock solution in DMSO for a final PAMCA concentration of 5 μM. After 5 minutes of agitation on a shaking plate, the reaction is allowed to proceed at 37° C. for 120 minutes Inhibition constants are calculated using pro Fit software (Quantum Soft, Uetikon am See, Switzerland) and a Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.
