UniProt: P24941
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: Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Assay: Surface plasmon resonance data was collected on a Biacore T200 or 3000 system (GE Healthcare) at 25° C. Streptavidin was immobilized on a CMS (GE Healthcare) or CMD500d sensor chip (XanTec Bioanalytics) using standard amine-coupling chemistry at 25° C. with HBS-N (10 mM HEPES, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.4) as the running buffer. Briefly, the carboxymethyl dextran surface was activated with a 12 min injection of a 1:1 ratio of 0.4 M 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/0.1 M N-hydroxy succinimide (NHS) at a flow rate of 10 μL/min. For capture of streptavidin, protein was diluted to 0.2 mg/mL in 10 mM sodium acetate (pH 4.5) and captured by injecting 100 μL onto the activated chip surface. Residual activated groups were blocked with a 7 min injection of 1 M ethanolamine (pH 8.5). Avi-tagged PCSK9 protein was captured on the streptavidin surface by injection of 150 μL of protein diluted to 16 μg/mL in HBS-N, 0.05% tween-20, 0.1 mM CaCl2. Typical surface densities obtained were 8000-10000 RU. SPR binding data were obtained using an appropriate dilution series of each compound at a flow rate of 30 μL/ min, with a capture time of 100 s and dissociation times of 300 s. Running buffer for compound binding studies was HBS-N, 0.05% tween-20, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 4% DMSO. Data were corrected for DMSO excluded volume effects. All data were double-referenced for blank injections and reference surface using standard processing procedures and data processing and kinetic fitting were performed using Scrubber software, version 2.0c (BioLogic Software).

Assay: Biological Assay: The kinase IC50 was determined by a commercialized CISBIO kinase detection kit, HTRF KinEASE-STK S2 kit (62ST2PEC). ROCK2 (01-119) employed in the reaction was purchased from Carna Biosciences.Before the assay, the following working solutions as needed were formulated with corresponding reagents according to the instruction of the kinase detection kit: 1×kinase buffer, 5×STK-52 substrate working solution (1.5 μM) and 5×ATP working solution (1.5 μM), 5×ROCK2 kinase working solution, 4×Streptavidin-XL665 working solution, and 4×STK-Ab-Cryptate 2 detection solution. Then the assay was performed according to the following procedure.A solution of a compound at a concentration of 10000 nM was prepared with the 1×kinase buffer containing 2.5% DMSO. Gradient dilution of the solution of the compound was performed with the kinase buffer containing DMSO, so as to obtain solutions of a test compound at 9 different concentrations. In addition to wells of test compounds, a positive well (containing all the reagents except the compound) and a negative well (containing all the reagents except the test compound and kinase) were set. Except for the control wells (positive and negative wells), a solution of a test compound (4 μL) was added to each of the reaction wells, and a solution of 2.5% DMSO was added to the control wells. Then the substrate (2 μM, i.e., 2 μL. 5×STK-S2 substrate working solution) was added to each of the reaction wells. The 5×ROCK2 kinase working solution (2 μL, containing 1.4 ng ROCK2 kinase) was added to each of the reaction wells except for the negative well, the volume of which was made up with the 1×kinase buffer (2 μL). The 5×ATP working solution (2 μL) was added to each of the reaction wells, and the mixtures were incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After the kinase reaction was complete, the 4×Streptavidin-XL665 working solution was added to each of the reaction wells, the solutions were mixed, followed by immediate addition of the 4×STK-Ab-Cryptate 2 detection solution (5 μL), and the mixtures were incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. The fluorescence signal was read on ENVISION (Perkinelmer) (excitation wavelength: 320 nm, and emission wavelength: 665 nm and 615 nm). The inhibitory rate in each well was calculated based on the fluorescence intensity value: ER (Emission Ratio)=(fluorescence intensity at 665 nm/fluorescence intensity at 615 nm); inhibitory rate=(ERpositive−ERtest compound)/(ERpositive−ERnegative)*100%. Curves were plotted and fitted to obtain the median inhibitory concentration (IC50) of each teat compound with the PRISM 5.0 software.

Assay: IDH2 Enzymatic Assay: Compounds were assayed for IDH2 R140Q inhibitory activity through a cofactor depletion assay. Compounds were preincubated with enzyme, then the reaction was started by the addition of NADPH and α-KG, and allowed to proceed for 60 minutes under conditions previously demonstrated to be linear with respect for time for consumption of both cofactor and substrate. The reaction was terminated by the addition of a second enzyme, diaphorase, and a corresponding substrate, resazurin. Diaphorase reduces resazurin to the highly fluorescent resorufin with the concomitant oxidation of NADPH to NADP, both halting the IDH2 reaction by depleting the available cofactor pool and facilitating quantitation of the amount of cofactor remaining after a specific time period through quantitative production of an easily detected fluorophore.Specifically, into each of 12 wells of a 384-well plate, 1 μl of compound dilution series was placed, followed by the addition of 40 μl of buffer (50 mM potassium phosphate, pH 7.5; 150 mM NaCl; 10 mM MgCl2, 10% glycerol, 0.05% bovine serum albumin, 2 mM beta-mercaptoethanol) containing 1.25 μg/ml IDH2 R140Q. The compound was then incubated for one hour at room temperature with the enzyme; before starting the IDH2 reaction with the addition of 10 μl of substrate mix containing 50 μM NADPH and 6.3 mM α-KG in the buffer described above. After a further one hour of incubation at room temperature, the reaction was halted and the remaining NADPH measured through conversion of resazurin to resorufin by the addition of 25 μl Stop Mix (36 μg/ml diaphorase enzyme and 60 μM resazurin; in buffer). After one minute of incubation the plate was read on a plate reader at Ex544/Em590.

UniProt: O60885
Assay: Alphascreen Binding Assay: Binding of compounds of formula (I) with bromodomain 2, 3 4 was assessed using Alphascreen binding assay. The inhibition of the interaction between bromodomain and its acetylated target protein (Filippakopoulos P et al. 2012) was measured quantitatively using recombinant BRD proteins, an acetylated Histone 4 peptide and AlphaScreen technology. In absence of inhibition the BRD protein bound to AlphaScreen nickel chelate acceptor beads can interact with the acetylated Histone 4 peptide which is immobilized by the AlphaScreen Streptavidin coated beads. This interaction brings donor and acceptor beads in proximity. The close proximity allows the singlet oxygen produced by laser excitation of the donor beads to reach the acceptor beads and generate a luminescence signal. BRD inhibitors result in a decrease in the proximity signal through an inhibition of the BRD-acetylated peptide interaction.Recombinant human bromodomains containing the N-terminal bromodomain (BRD2-BD1 (71-194), BRD3-BD1 (24-144) and BRD4-BD1 (44-164)) or dual bromodomains (BRD4-BD12 (1-477), BRD4-BD12 (1-472)) were prepared and purified as described in protein expression and purification session.

Compounds were dissolved in DMSO so that the final concentration of DMSO was <2%, and the reaction was initiated with Rho kinase variants. After incubation, the reaction was terminated by the addition of EDTA and the phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated peptides separated using a LABCHIP® 3000 Reader (Caliper Life Sciences). Controls consisted of assays that did not contain compound, and backgrounds consisted of assays that contained enzyme and substrate but had EDTA from the beginning of the reaction to inhibit kinase activity. Compounds were tested in dose-response format, and the inhibition of kinase activity was calculated at each concentration of compound. The inhibition data were fit using a curve-fitting program to determine the IC50; i.e., the concentration of compound required to inhibit 50% of kinase activity.

Assay: transient human FXR/Gal4-luciferase reporter assay: A Gal4-hFXR fusion construct reporter system was used as the primary assay to characterize compound activity. A construct including 5 copies of the Gal4 promoter response element upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter cDNA was stably expressed in HEK293 cells. This reporter cell line was maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco) supplemented with 1% penicillin-streptomycin (P/S) solution, 500 μg/mL Zeocin and 10% charcoal/dextran-treated fetal bovine serum (cs-FBS) at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Another plasmid was constructed in which the human cytomegalovirus promoter in the pcDNA3.1 vector directs the expression of the cDNA encoding a fusion protein comprised of the DNA binding domain from the Gal4 transcription factor fused to the ligand binding domain from human FXR.The day prior to transfection, the reporter cells in culture are detached from the plate with trypsin and plated into a T75 flask at a sufficient density to achieve approximately 90% confluence the next morning. The transfection reagents are prepared by separately diluting 25 μg of the pcDNA3.1-Gal4-FXR plasmid into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM (Thermo-Fisher), and 40 μL of Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo-Fisher) into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM, and then adding the diluted DNA solution into the diluted Lipofectamine 2000 solution and incubating at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. The mixture is further diluted with 10 mL of a solution comprised of DMEM, 10% cs-FBS, and 1% P/S immediately prior to transferring to the cells. The maintenance culture media is aspirated from the cells and the final transfection mixture is added before the cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. This protocol can be scaled up, and the transiently transfected cells can be cryopreserved in an assay-ready format.For compound testing, 100 nL of the compounds (serial dilutions in DMSO) are dispensed with an Echo acoustic dispenser (Labcyte) into the wells of a Corning/Costar clear bottom 384-well white plate. The transfected cells are harvested, counted, and diluted such that 10-25,000 cells in 25 μL are plated into each well of the 384-well compound assay plate. The compound-treated cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. The next morning 25 μL of Steady-Glo (Promega) are added to each well of the plate, the mixture is incubated for 15 min. with shaking, and luminescence is measured on an Envision (Perkin Elmer) plate reader. Background counts from cells treated with DMSO alone are subtracted from all raw counts, and the corrected values are converted to a percentage of the control response attained with 8 μM GW-4064. These data are fit to a 4-parameter log agonist-response equation to calculate an EC50 value.

SH-SY5Y cells stably expressing human α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, grown to confluency in 175 cm2 flasks, were washed briefly with warm PBS containing (in mm): (150 NaCl, 8 K2HPO4, 2 KH2PO4, pH 7.4, 37° C.) and scraped into cold phosphate buffer. Cells were washed by centrifugation for 3 min at 500×g and resuspended in 10 mL of ice-cold phosphate buffer. The suspension was homogenized for 10 sec using an Ultraturax and centrifuged for 30 min at 45,000×g. The pellet was resuspended in phosphate buffer (0.5 mL per original flask). SH-SY5Y membranes (30 μg protein) were incubated in a total volume of 2 mL in 50 mM phosphate buffer with 0.05 nM [125I]-αBgt and serial dilutions of test compound. Nonspecific binding was determined in the presence of α-bungarotoxin (1 μM). Samples were incubated for 120 min at 37° C. The reaction was terminated by filtration through Whatman GFA/E filter paper (presoaked overnight in 0.3% polyethyleneimine in PBS), using a Brandel Cell Harvester. Each condition was measured in duplicate. Filters were counted for radioactivity using a scintillation counter. The results were expressed as a percent inhibition of control specific binding obtained in the presence of the test compounds where Inhibition (%)=100−[(measured specific binding/control specific binding)×100].

Assay: TR-FRET Assay: The peptide AVPIAQKSEK-(ε-biotin)-OH (SEQ ID NO: 1) 1:2 TFA (Peptide A) was identified as a substrate for the TR-FRET assay by screening the 6× Histidine-tagged (SEQ ID NO: 2) BIR2 domain and BIR3 domain of XIAP against a set of 29 peptides synthesized based on sequences reported by Sweeny et al. (Biochemistry, 2006, 45, 14740 14748). The peptides were labeled with the fluorescent tags FITC or TAMRA and Kd values were determined by fluorescence polarization assay. The sequence AVPIAQKSEK (SEQ ID NO: 3) was identified as optimal for using in an assay. The peptide sequence was derivatized with biotin to provide AVPIAQKSEK-(ε-biotin)-OH (SEQ ID NO: 1) 1:2 TFA as the substrate for the TR-FRET assay.The XIAP protein sequence was obtained from the SWISS-PROT protein sequence database and the BIR2 and BIR3 domains were derived from that.

Assay: FRET Assay: An HDM2 FRET assay was developed to assess the compounds' inhibitory activity towards binding of p53 protein. A truncated version of HDM2 with residues 17 to 125 (containing p53 binding surface, Science (1994) 265, 346-355), with N-terminal His and Thioredoxin tag was generated in pET32a expression vector and expressed in E. coli strain BL21(DE3)Rosetta. Protein was purified using Ni-affinity chromatography, followed by size exclusion chromatography using Superdex 75 26/60 column. To assess inhibition of p53 binding to HDM2, a FITC labeled 8-mer peptide (sequence: Ac-Phe-Arg-Dpr-Ac6c-(6-Br)Trp-Glu-Glu-Leu-NH2; Anal Biochem. 2004 Aug. 1; 331(1):138-46) with strong affinity towards p53 binding pocket of HDM2 was used. The HDM2 assay buffer contained 1× Phosphate Buffered Saline (Invitrogen, Cat#14190), 0.01% BSA (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Cat#001-000-162), 0.01% Tween-20. In the 1× assay buffer recombinant HDM2 protein, peptide and Lumi4-Tb Cryptate-conjugate mouse anti-6×His antibody (cisbio, Cat# Tb61HISTLB) were added and transferred to ProxiPlate PLUS (PerkinElmer, Cat#6008269), containing compounds so that final DMSO concentration is 0.1%. Final concentrations of reagents in the assay wells are 0.5 nM HDM2, 0.25 nM anti HIS (Tb label) antibody and 3 nM peptide. After two hour incubation at room temperature in a humidified chamber plates were read on EnVision plate reader with the following settings: excitation: UV, 340 nM, two emission filters: 520 nm and 495 nm respectively. Ratio of em520/em495 was used to calculate % inhibition and to obtain IC50 with 4-parameter logistic equation.

Assay: Human P2X3 Receptor Inhibition Assay: Stably expressing cell line (C6BU-1 transfected with human P2X3 receptor gene (GenBank accession number Y07683) was used. The cells were seeded in a 96-well microtiter plate at a concentration of 8000 cells/well and cultured in the medium (8.3% fetal bovine serum, 8.3% horse serum, 1% antibiotic and antifungal in DMEM) for one day at 37° C. under 5% carbon dioxide atmosphere. The medium was replaced with 4 μM Fluo-3-AM solution (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, 10% BSA, and 0.08% Pluronic F-127, pH 7.5) and incubated at 37° C. under 5% dioxide carbon atmosphere for one hour. The plate was washed with washing buffer (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, pH 7.5), each well was added with 40 μL of this buffer. The plate was placed in High-Throughput Screening System FDSS 3000 (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.). Measurement of fluorescence intensity by FDSS 3000 was started, and 40 μl, of DMSO solutions containing different concentrations of the test, compound as prepared by dilution with dilution buffer (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, 0.1.% Pluronic F-127, pH 7.5) were dispensed to each well through the built-in automatic dispenser. Five minutes after, 50 nM ATP solution (50 μL) prepared by dilution with the dilution buffer was dispensed through the built-in automatic dispenser, and the measurement of fluorescence intensity was continued for 3 min. For each well, the specific maximum fluorescence intensity was calculated as the ratio of the maximum fluorescence intensity after addition of the ATP solution to the fluorescence intensity at the starting of the measurement. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated under the assumption that the specific maximum fluorescence intensity without test compound is 0% inhibition and that the specific maximum fluorescence intensity when the dilution buffer was added in place of ATP solution is 100% inhibition, to evaluate the inhibitory activity of the test compound. FDSS software (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.) was used for calculation of the specific maximum fluorescence intensity. IC50 was calculated using Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation) and Ltd.).

Assay: transient human FXR/Gal4-luciferase reporter assay: A Gal4-hFXR fusion construct reporter system was used as the primary assay to characterize compound activity. A construct including 5 copies of the Gal4 promoter response element upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter cDNA was stably expressed in HEK293 cells. This reporter cell line was maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco) supplemented with 1% penicillin-streptomycin (P/S) solution, 500 μg/ml Zeocin and 10% charcoal/dextran-treated fetal bovine serum (cs-FBS) at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Another plasmid was constructed in which the human cytomegalovirus promoter in the pcDNA3.1 vector directs the expression of the cDNA encoding a fusion protein comprised of the DNA binding domain from the Gal4 transcription factor fused to the ligand binding domain from human FXR.The day prior to transfection, the reporter cells in culture are detached from the plate with trypsin and plated into a T75 flask at a sufficient density to achieve approximately 90% confluence the next morning. The transfection reagents are prepared by separately diluting 25 μg of the pcDNA3.1-Gal4-FXR plasmid into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM (Thermo-Fisher), and 40 μL of Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo-Fisher) into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM, and then adding the diluted DNA solution into the diluted Lipofectamine 2000 solution and incubating at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. The mixture is further diluted with 10 mL of a solution comprised of DMEM, 10% cs-FBS, and 1% P/S immediately prior to transferring to the cells. The maintenance culture media is aspirated from the cells and the final transfection mixture is added before the cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. This protocol can be scaled up, and the transiently transfected cells can be cryopreserved in an assay-ready format.For compound testing, 100 nL of the compounds (serial dilutions in DMSO) are dispensed with an Echo acoustic dispenser (Labcyte) into the wells of a Corning/Costar clear bottom 384-well white plate. The transfected cells are harvested, counted, and diluted such that 10-25,000 cells in 25 μL are plated into each well of the 384-well compound assay plate. The compound-treated cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. The next morning 25 μL of Steady-Glo (Promega) are added to each well of the plate, the mixture is incubated for 15 min. with shaking, and luminescence is measured on an Envision (Perkin Elmer) plate reader. Background counts from cells treated with DMSO alone are subtracted from all raw counts, and the corrected values are converted to a percentage of the control response attained with 8 μM GW-4064. These data are fit to a 4-parameter log agonist-response equation to calculate an EC50 value.

Assay: HTRF Assay: Assays were conducted in black low volume 384-well polystyrene plates (Greiner 784076-25) in a final volume of 10 μL. Test compounds were first serially diluted in DMSO and 100 nl added to the plate wells before the addition of other reaction components. The final concentration of DMSO was 1%. Tag-lite® Adenosine A2A labeled cells (CisBio C1TT1A2A) were diluted 1:5 into Tag-lite buffer (CisBio LABMED) and spun 1200 g for 5 mins. The pellet was resuspended at a volume 10.4× the initial cell suspension volume in Tag-lite buffer, and Adenosine A2A Receptor Red antagonist fluorescent ligand (CisBio L0058RED) added at 12.5 nM final concentration. 10 ul of the cell and ligand mix was added to the assay wells and incubated at room temperature for 45 minutes before reading on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG Labtech) with HTRF 337/620/665 optical module. Percent binding of the fluorescent ligand was calculated; where 100 nM of A2A antagonist control ZM 241385 (Tocris 1036) displaces the ligand 100% and 1% DMSO has 0% displacement. The % binding data versus the log of the inhibitor concentration was fitted to a one-site competitive binding model (GraphPad Prism version 7.02) where the ligand constant=12.5 nM and the ligand Kd=1.85 nM.

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.

On the day of the assay, 50 uL of staining buffer (HBSS containing 1% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L, 5 mM probenecid (Sigma) and 3 uM of the fluorescent calcium indicator fluo-4 AM (1 mM stock solution in DMSO, containing 10% pluronic) is added to each well. The 384-well cell-plates are incubated for 50 min at 37° C. in 5% CO2 followed by equilibration at rt for 30 min before measurement.Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR Tetra, Molecular Devices), antagonists are added to the plate in a volume of 10 uL/well, incubated for 120 min and finally 10 uL/well of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals, and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 3 nM orexin-A with vehicle in place of antagonist. The IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonistic response) is determined and may be normalized using the obtained IC50 value of an on-plate reference compound. Optimized conditions were achieved by adjustment of pipetting speed and cell splitting regime. The calculated IC50 values may fluctuate depending on the daily cellular assay performance. Fluctuations of this kind are known to those skilled in the art. In the case where IC50 values have been determined several times for the same compound, the geometric mean has been given.

Assay: Omnia Assay: The protocol below describes continuous-read kinase assays to measure potency of compounds against activated ERK1 enzyme. The mechanics of the assay platform are best described by the vendor (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) on their website at the following URL: invitrogen.com/site/us/en/home.html.Briefly, a 1.25× stock of ERK1 enzyme (14-439-K) from Millipore (Billerica, Mass.), 5×ATP (AS001A) and ST17-Sox conjugated peptide substrate (KNZ1171C) were prepared in 1× kinase reaction buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 5 mM β-glycerophosphate, 5% glycerol (10× stock, KB002A) and 0.2 mM DTT. 10 μL of ATP/ST17-sox peptide substrate mix was combined with 0.5 μL volume of 100% DMSO and serially diluted compounds were prepared in 100% DMSO in a Corning (#3574) 384-well, white, non-binding surface microtiter plate (Corning, N.Y.). Kinase reactions were started with the addition of 40 μL of ERK1 solution and monitored every 71 seconds for 30-240 minutes at λex360/λem485 in a Synergy 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 determined from the slope of a plot of relative fluorescence units vs time (minutes or seconds) and then plotted against inhibitor concentration to estimate AppIC50 from log [Inhibitor] vs Response, Variable Slope model in GraphPad Prism from GraphPad Software (San Diego, Calif.).

Assay: Biochemical HTRF Assay : The ability of compounds to inhibit the activity of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and Tyk2 was measured using a recombinant purified GST-tagged catalytic domain for each enzyme (Invitrogen JAK1 #M4290, JAK2 #M4290, JAK3 #M4290, Tyk2 #M4290) in an HTRF format biochemical assay. The reactions employed a common peptide substrate, LCB-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLW-NH2 (in-house). The basic assay protocol is as follows: First, 250 nL of diluted compounds in DMSO were dispensed into the wells of a dry 384-well Black plate (Greiner #781076) using a Labcyte Echo 555 acoustic dispenser. Subsequent reagent additions employed an Agilent Bravo. Next, 18 μL of 1.11× enzyme and 1.11× substrate in 1× assay buffer (Invitrogen kinase buffer #PV3189, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% BSA) were added to the wells and shaken and then preincubated for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow compound binding to equilibrate. After equilibration, 2 μL of 10×ATP in 1× assay buffer was added to initiate the kinase reaction and the plates were shaken and then incubated at room temperature for 120 minutes. At the end of the incubation, 20 μL of 2× stop buffer (streptavidin-Dylight 650 (Thermo #84547B/100 mL), Eu-tagged pY20 antibody (Perkin Elmer #AD0067), EDTA, HEPES, and Triton) was added to quench the reaction. Plates were shaken and centrifuged and then incubated 60 minutes at room temperature and then read on a Perkin Elmer Envision (λex=337 nm, λem=665 and 615 nm, TRF delay time=20 μs). HTRF signal=10,000*665 nm reading/615 nm reading.
