Assay: In Vitro DGK Inhibition Assay: The reactions were carried out in 50 mM MOPS pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 μM CaCl2, and 1 mM DTT (assay buffer). The reactions using a detergent/lipid micelle substrate also contained 50 mM octyl B-D-glucopyranoside. The lipid substrate concentrations were 11 mM PS and 1 mM DAG for the detergent/lipid micelle reactions. The lipid substrate concentrations were 2 mM PS, 0.25 mM DAG, and 2.75 mM PC for the extruded liposome reactions (5 mM total lipid). The reactions were carried out in 150 μM ATP. The enzyme concentrations for the DGKα and DGKζ were 5 nM. The compound inhibition studies were carried out as follows: 25 nL (ADPGLO assay) or 50 nL (LIPGLO assay) droplets of each test compound (top concentration 10 mM with 11 point, 3-fold dilution series for each compound) solubilized in DMSO were transferred to wells of a white 1536 well plate (Corning 3725). A 5 mL enzyme/lipid substrate solution at 2× final reaction concentration was prepared by combining 2.5 mL 4× enzyme solution (20 nM DGKα or DGKζ (prepared as described below) in assay buffer) and 2.5 mL of either 4× liposome or 4× detergent/lipid micelle solution (compositions described below) and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. Next, 1 μL 2× enzyme/lipid substrate solution was added to wells containing the test compound and reactions were initiated with the addition of 1 μL 300 uM ATP. The reactions were allowed to proceed for 2 hr (ADPGLO assay) or 1 hr (LIPGLO assay), after which 2 μL Glo Reagent (Promega V9101) was added and incubated for 40 minutes. Next, 4 μL Kinase Detection Reagent was added and incubated for 30 minutes. Luminescence was recorded using an EnVision microplate reader. The percent inhibition was calculated from the ATP conversion generated by no enzyme control reactions for 100% inhibition and vehicle-only reactions for 0% inhibition.

Assay: Electrophysiology: Electrophysiological experiments were performed on days 3 to 5 after the micro-injection of mRNA. During the experiment the oocytes were constantly superfused by a solution containing (in mM) NaCl 90, KCl 1, HEPES 5, MgCl2 1, CaCl2 1 (pH 7.4). Oocytes were impaled by two glass microelectrodes (resistance: 0.4 MΩ) which were filled with a solution containing KCl 1M+K-acetate 1.5 M and voltage-clamped to −80 mV. The recordings were performed at room temperature using the Roboocyte two-electrode voltage clamp system (Multichannelsystem). After an initial equilibration period of 1.5 min GABA was added for 1.5 min at a concentration evoking approximately 20% of a maximal current response (EC20). After another rest interval of 2.5 min GABA was again added evoking a response of similar amplitude and shape. 0.5 min after the onset of this second GABA application the test compound, at a concentration corresponding to approximatively 30 fold its Ki, was added while GABA was still present. Current traces were recorded at a digitization rate of 10 Hz during and shortly before and after the GABA application.

Assay: DiscoverX PathHunter Assay: In this assay, U2OS cells express the human TrkA receptor as a fusion with the weakly complementing fragment of B-galactosidase, which DiscoverX calls Prolink (PK); additionally, Shc1 is fused with a larger fragment, which is called Enzyme Acceptor (EA). Activation of the TrkA receptor, upon NGF addition, results in the kinase domain being phosphorylated, resulting in subsequent recruitment of Shc1-EA protein. That recruitment results in an active B-galactosidase enzyme that is detected by addition of a chemiluminescent substrate. The human p75NTR protein was also expressed as a co-receptor for NGF.All reagents were purchased from DiscoverX, except for the receptor agonists (NGF, BDNF, NT3) which were purchased from Peprotech. Cells were expanded and frozen into cryovials, and stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen, and thawed immediately before use. Thawed cells were added to a 384-well plate at 7500 cells/well, and allowed to incubate overnight. Compound at various concentrations was added the following morning and allowed to incubate on cells for 1 h. Then, NGF was added at a concentration sufficient to elicit 80% of a maximal response and allowed to incubate for 3 h at ambient temperature. DiscoverX PathHunter detection reagent was then added and the plate was further incubated for 1 h in the dark. The plate was then read via luminescence on the Perkin Elmer Envision.

Assay: IMAP-FP Assay: Activated ERK2 activity was determined in an IMAP-FP assay (Molecular Devices). Using this assay format, the potency (IC50) of each compound was determined from a 10 point (1:3 serial dilution, 3 μM starting compound concentration) titration curve using the following outlined procedure. To each well of a black Corning 384-well plate (Corning Catalog #3575), 7.5 nL of compound (3333 fold dilution in final assay volume of 25 μL) was dispensed, followed by the addition of 15 μL of kinase buffer (tween containing kinase buffer, Molecular Devices) containing 0.0364 ng/mL (0.833 nM) of phosphorylated active hERK2 enzyme. Following a 15 minute compound & enzyme incubation, each reaction was initiated by the addition of 10 μL kinase buffer containing 2.45 μM ERK2 IMAP substrate peptides and 75 μM ATP. The final reaction in each well of 25 μL consists of 0.5 nM hERK2, 900 nM unlabeled peptide, 80 nM labeled-peptide, and 30 μM ATP. Phosphorylation reactions were allowed to proceed for 60 minutes and were immediately quenched by the addition of 60 μL IMAP detection beads (1:1000 dilutions) in IMAP binding buffer (Molecular Devices) with 24 mM NaCl. Plates were read on EnVision reader after 60 minutes binding equilibration using Fluorescence Polarization protocol (Perkin Elmer).

Target: Coagulation factor XI (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P03951
Assay: Factor XIa Assay: The effectiveness of a compound of the present invention as an inhibitor of Coagulation Factor XIa can be determined using a relevant purified serine protease, and an appropriate synthetic substrate. The rate of hydrolysis of the chromogenic or fluorogenic substrate by the relevant serine protease was measured both in the absence and presence of compounds of the present invention. Assays were conducted at room temperature or at 37° C. Hydrolysis of the substrate resulted in release of amino trifluoromethylcoumarin (AFC), which was monitored spectrofluorometrically by measuring the increase in emission at 510 nm with excitation at 405 nm. A decrease in the rate of fluorescence change in the presence of inhibitor is indicative of enzyme inhibition. Such methods are known to one skilled in the art. The results of this assay are expressed as the inhibitory constant, Ki. Factor XIa determinations were made in 50 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.4 containing 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM CaCl2, and 0.1% PEG 8000 (polyethylene glycol; JT Baker or Fisher Scientific). Determinations were made using purified human Factor XIa at a final concentration of 40 pM (Sekisui Diagnostics) and the synthetic substrate, Z-Gly-Pro-Arg-AFC, TFA salt (Sigma #C0980) at a concentration of 100 μM.

UniProt: Q06187
Assay: BTK-POLYGAT-LS ASSAY: The purpose of the BTK in vitro assay is to determine compound potency against BTK through the measurement of IC50. Compound inhibition is measured after monitoring the amount of phosphorylation of a fluorescein-labeled polyGAT peptide (Invitrogen PV3611) in the presence of active BTK enzyme (Upstate 14-552), ATP, and inhibitor. The BTK kinase reaction was done in a black 96 well plate (costar 3694). For a typical assay, a 24 μL aliquot of a ATP/peptide master mix (final concentration; ATP 10 μM, polyGAT 100 nM) in kinase buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 200 μM Na3PO4, 5 mM DTT, 0.01% Triton X-100, and 0.2 mg/ml casein) is added to each well. Next, 1 pL of a 4-fold, 40× compound titration in 100% DMSO solvent is added, followed by adding 15 uL of BTK enzyme mix in 1× kinase buffer (with a final concentration of 0.25 nM). The assay is incubated for 30 minutes before being stopped with 28 pL of a 50 mM EDTA solution. Aliquots (5 uL) of the kinase reaction are transferred to a low volume white 384 well plate (Corning 3674), and 5 pL of a 2× detection buffer (Invitrogen PV3574, with 4 nM Tb-PY20 antibody, Invitrogen PV3552) is added. The plate is covered and incubated for 45 minutes at room temperature. Time resolved fluorescence (TRF) on Molecular Devices M5 (332 nm excitation; 488 nm emission; 518 nm fluorescein emission) is measured. IC50 values are calculated using a four parameter fit with 100% enzyme activity determined from the DMSO control and 0% activity from the EDTA control.

Assay: FLIPR Assay for hTRPV4 Expressed in BHK Cells: TRPV4 channel activation results in an influx of divalent and monovalent cations including calcium. The resulting changes in intracellular calcium were monitored using a calcium specific fluorescent dye Fluo-4 (MDS Analytical Technologies). BHK/AC9 cells transduced with BacMam virus expressing the human TRPV4 gene at a MOI of 78 were plated in a 384 well poly-D lysine coated plate (15,000 cells/well in 50 μL culture medium containing DMEM/F12 with 15 mM HEPES, 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin and 1% L-glutamine). Cells were incubated for 24 hours at 37° C. and 5% CO2. Culture medium was then aspirated using a Tecan plate-washer and replaced with 20 μL/well of dye loading buffer: HBSS, 500 μM Brilliant Black (MDS Analytical Technologies), and 2 μM Fluo-4 AM. Dye loaded plates were then incubated in the dark at room temperature for 11.5 hours. 10 μL of test compounds diluted in HBSS (with 1.5 mM Calcium Chloride, 1.5 mM Magnesium Chloride and 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4)+0.01% Chaps was added to each individual well of the plate, incubated for 10 min at room temperature in the dark and then 10 μL of agonist (N((S)-1-(((R)-1-((2-cyanophenyl)sulfonyl)-3-oxoazepan-4-yl)amino)-4-methyl-1-oxopentan-2-yl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide, (Thorneloe et al, Sci.

UniProt: Q13535
Assay: Time-Resolved Fluorescence Energy Transfer (TR-FRET Tracer A): To determine of binding activity of the test compounds, full-length human ATR protein was expressed and purified together with ATRIP as described above. Furthermore, a fluorescently labelled compound (tracer A) was used as a tracer molecule. Detection of the binding event of the tracer was achieved by time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET). We used an anti-GST-Terbium antibody (CisBio) that binds to the GST-tag at the N-terminus of ATR-kinase. Excitation of Terbium with 337 nm light results in emission of fluorescent light with 545 nm. In case a tetrameric complex has formed (antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+Strp2-ATRIP+tracer), part of the energy will be transferred from the Terbium to the fluorophore that itself emits light of 570 nm. Displacement of the fluorescent tracer by a test compound leads to a reduction of the TR-FRET-signal.For the assay 50 nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384well microtiter plate (MTP, Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany). To prepare the ATR-working solution, ATR/ATRIP stock solution was diluted in assay buffer [50 mM HEPES (pH 7.0), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% (w/v) Igepal, 0.01% (w/v) BSA] to 4.2 nM protein concentration (concentration may vary from lot to lot of protein preparation). AntiGST-Tb antibody was diluted to 4.2 nM. The ATR-working solution was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. prior to dispensing to pre-form the complex of antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+ATRIP. Then, 3 μl of the ATR-working solution were added to the test compound and the mixture was incubated for 10 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to ATR/ATRIP. Then, 2 μl of a 100 nM solution of either tracer A or B in assay buffer were added to the ATR-working solution. The resulting mixture was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. The measurement of the TR-FRET signal was performed in a standard HTRF-compatible MTP reader instrument (e.g. BMG Pherastar) by recording the fluorescence emissions at 545 nm and 570 nm after excitation at 337-350 nm. The ratio between emission at 570 nm divided by emission at 545 nm was calculated to give the well ratio. The experimental data (well ratios) were normalised by the following way: positive control contained ATR-working solution plus either tracer A or B solution (=0% inhibition), the negative control contained all components except GST-ATR/ATRIP (=100% inhibition).

Assay: Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) Assay: The binding of compounds to bromodomain BRD4 (44-168), BRD4 (333-460), and BRD4 (1-477 or 44-460) was assessed using a time resolved fluorescent resonance energy transfer binding assay (1), that measures the binding of a fluorescently labeled probe molecule to the bromodomain protein. The bromodomain protein, fluorescent probe molecule (either a biotinylated histone peptide or a fluorescently labeled small molecule), and dose-responsed test compound are incubated together to reach thermodynamic equilibrium. In the absence of a test compound, the bromodomain and small molecule are bound, resulting in a high fluorescent signal. In the presence of a sufficient concentration of inhibitor, this intercation is disrupted resulting in a loss of fluorescent resonance energy transfer.

The growth medium was exchanged with Krebs Ringer Bicarbonate buffer with 1 mM IBMX and incubated at 30° C. for 30 min Compounds were added to a final assay volume of 100 μl and incubated for 30 min at 30° C. The assay was stopped by the addition of 50 μl lysis reagent (Tris, NaCl, 1.5% Triton X100, 2.5% NP40, 10% NaN3) and 50 detection solutions (20 μM mAb Alexa700-cAMP 1:1, and 48 μM Ruthenium-2-AHA-cAMP) and shaked for 2 h at room temperature. The time-resolved energy transfer is measured by a TRF reader (Evotec Technologies GmbH, Hamburg Germany), equipped with a ND:YAG laser as excitation source. The plate is measured twice with the excitation at 355 nm and at the emission with a delay of 100 ns and a gate of 100 ns, total exposure time 10 s at 730 (bandwidth 30 nm) or 645 nm (bandwidth 75 nm), respectively. The measured signal at 730 nm has to be corrected for the ruthenium background, the direct excitation of Alexa and the buffer control. The FRET signal is calculated as follows: FRET=T730−Alexa730−P(T645−B645) with P=Ru730−B730/Ru645−B645, where T730 is the test well measured at 730 nM, T645 is the test well measured at 645 nm, B730 and B645 are the buffer controls at 730 nm and 645 nm, respectively. cAMP content is determined from the function of a standard curve spanning from 10 μM to 0.13 nM cAMP.

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.

Assay: In Vitro Enzymatic BACE1 and BACE2 FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) Assays: The cDNAs for both human recombinant BACE1 and 2 with C-terminal 6-His Tags were cloned into transient protein expression vectors, which were subsequently transfected into mammalian cell lines. These recombinant proteins were further purified using Ni-NTA affinity chromatography (Qiagen). The assay buffer used in these screens was 0.05 M acetate, pH 4.5, 8% DMSO final, 100 μM genapol (which is a nonionic detergent, below its Critical Micelle Concentration). The β-secretase enzyme (0.02 nM for BACE1 and 0.64 nM for BACE2), which was pre-incubated for one hour with the test compound, typically in about 1 uL of DMSO according to a serial dilution, was added thereto. The assay was effectively started by the addition of FRET substrate (50 nM) and the combination was incubated for one hour. The FRET assay was terminated by the addition of tris buffer, which raised the pH to neutrality, and the fluorescence was determined. The FRET substrate was a peptide with commercially available fluorophore and quencher, on opposite sides of the BACE cleavage site. The specific FRET substrate used in this assay was made by Amgen in-house. Commercially available FRET substrates, for example, the FRET substrate offered with the BACE1 FRET Assay Kit sold by ThermoFisher Scientific (Catalog Number P2985), may be used in this assay with the appropriate modifications, which are within the purview of the ability of a person with ordinary skill in the art. Proteolytic cleavage of the FRET substrate released quenching of fluorescence (excitation 488 nm and emission 590 nm).
