Assay: Biochemical Inhibition Assay: The NAMPT enzymatic reactions were carried out in Buffer A (50 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, and 1 mM THP) in 96-well V-bottom plates. The compound titrations were performed in a separate dilution plate by serially diluting the compounds in DMSO to make a 100× stock. Buffer A (89 μL) containing 33 nM of NAMPT protein was added to 1 μL of 100× compound plate containing controls (e.g. DMSO or blank). The compound and enzyme mix was incubated for 15 minutes at room temperature, then 10 μL of 10× substrate and co-factors in Buffer A were added to the test well to make a final concentration of 1 μM NAM, 100 μM 5-Phospho-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (PRPP), and 2.5 mM Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP). The reaction was allowed to proceed for 30 minutes at room temperature, then was quenched with the addition of 11 μL of a solution of formic acid and L-Cystathionine to make a final concentration of 1% formic acid and 10 μM L-Cystathionine. Background and signal strength was determined by addition (or non-addition) of a serial dilution of NMN to a pre-quenched enzyme and cofactor mix.

Assay: ThermoFluor Assay: 1,8-ANS (Invitrogen) was used as a fluorescent dye. Protein and compound solutions are dispensed into black 384-well polypropylene PCR microplates (Abgene) and overlayed with silicone oil (1 μL, Fluka, type DC 200) to prevent evaporation.Bar-coded assay plates are robotically loaded onto a thermostatically controlled PCR-type thermal block and then heated at a typical ramp-rate of 1° C./min for all experiments. Fluorescence was measured by continuous illumination with UV light (Hamamatsu LC6) supplied via fiber optic and filtered through a band-pass filter (380-400 nm; >6 OD cutoff). Fluorescence emission of the entire 384-well plate was detected by measuring light intensity using a CCD camera (Sensys, Roper Scientific) filtered to detect 500±25 nm, resulting in simultaneous and independent readings of all 384 wells. Images were collected at each temperature, and the sum of the pixel intensity in a given area of the assay plate was recorded versus temperature. Reference wells contained RORγt without compounds, and the assay conditions were as follows:    0.065 mg/mL RORγt    60 μM 1,8-ANS    100 mM Hepes, pH 7.0    10 mM NaCl    2.5 mM GSH    0.002% Tween-20

Assay: Enzyme Assay: AXL enzyme inhibition (% inhibition, Kiapp and Ki values) by small molecule inhibitors was evaluated using a fluorescence-based microfluidic mobility shift assay. AXL catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the substrate peptide FL-Peptide-30 (5-FAM-KKKKEEIYFFF-CONH2, CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.). 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. Human wild-type receptor tyrosine kinase protein Axl comprising residues 505-811 was produced in-house using the baculoviral expression vector system that incorporated a hexahistidine affinity tag into the protein (LJIC-1916B1.1). The enzyme was preactivated by auto-phosphorylation of 34 uM non-activated enzyme in the presence of 2 mM ATP, 4 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl and 1 mM TCEP in 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.3 at 4° C. for 30 minutes. Typical reaction solutions (50 μL final reaction volume) contained 2% DMSO (±inhibitor), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 120 μM ATP (ATP Km=70.4 μM), 0.01% Tween-20, 3 μM FL-Peptide-30, and 0.5 nM phosphorylated AXL enzyme in 100 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.3. 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 30 minutes at 25° C. by the addition of 50 μL of 200 mM EDTA, pH 7.5. The Ki values were determined from the fit of the data to the Morrison tight-binding competitive inhibition equation with the enzyme concentration as a variable. (See, Morrison, J. F. (1969) Kinetics of the reversible inhibition of enzyme-catalysed reactions by tight-binding inhibitors, Biochimica et biophysica acta 185, 269-286; and Murphy, D. J.

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: PDE3A Enzyme Inhibition: The commercially available 3H-cAMP Scintillation Proximity Assay (SPA, Perkin Elmer) system was used for enzyme inhibition studies. For the determination of the in vitro effect of example compounds on the PDE3A reactions 2 μl of the respective example compound solution in DMSO (serial dilutions) were placed in wells of microtiter plates (Isoplate-96/200W; Perkin Elmer). 50 μl of a dilution of PDE3A cell extract from Sf9 cells overexpressing human full length PDE3A (SB Drug Discovery, UK) in buffer A (50 mM Tris/HCl pH 7.5, 8.3 mM MgCl2, 1.7 mM EDTA, 0.2% BSA) was added. The dilution of the PDE3A cell extract was chosen such that the reaction kinetics was linear and less than 70% of the substrate was consumed (typical dilution 1:5000). The reaction was started by addition of 50 μl (0.025 μCi) of 1:2000 in buffer A w/o BSA diluted substrate [8-3H]adenosine 3′, 5′-cyclic phosphate (1 μCi/μl; Perkin Elmer). After incubation at room temperature for 60 min, the reaction was stopped by addition of 25 μl of a suspension containing 18 mg/ml yttrium scintillation proximity beads (Perkin Elmer) in water. The microtiter plates were sealed and measured in a Microbeta scintillation counter (PerkinElmer Wallac). IC50 values were determined from sigmoidal curves by plotting percentage PDE3A activity vs log compound concentration.

Assay: Radioligand Binding Assay : HEK-293 cells stably expressing mouse 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 0.7 nM, resulting in the binding of approximately 0.5% of the radioligand and a specific binding representing approximately 70% of the total binding.

Assay: Intracellular cAMP Accumulation Assay: HEK293 cells stably expressing human APJ receptor were used to assess the activity of compounds. Cultured cells were detached and resuspended in the cAMP Homogeneous Time-Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF) assay buffer (Cisbio cat; #62AM4PEJ). The assay was performed in 384-well assay plates (Perkin-Elmer; cat #6008289) according to assay protocol provided by the manufacturer. Serial dilutions of a compound together with assay buffer containing 0.2 nM IBMX and 2 μM forskolin were added to each well containing 5,000 cells and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Subsequently, cAMP D2 reagent was added in the lysis buffer followed by the EuK antibody (Cisbio; cat #62AM4PEJ) and incubated for 60 min. The fluorescence emission ratio was measured using fluorometer. The intracellular cAMP concentrations (compound-stimulated inhibition of forskolin-mediated cAMP production) were calculated by extrapolation from a standard curve using known cAMP concentrations. The EC50 values were obtained by fitting the data to a sigmoidal concentration-response curve with variable slope. The maximal achievable inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP levels (Ymax) for each compound was expressed as relative percentage of inhibition attained using pyroglutamated apelin-13 ((Pyrl)apelin-13) peptide, which was set to 100%.

The reaction is initiated by the addition of the MgATP mix. After incubation for 40 minutes at room temperature, the reaction is stopped by the addition of 5 μL of a 3% phosphoric acid solution. 10 μL of the reaction mixture is then spotted onto a P30 filtermat and washed three times for 5 minutes in 75 mM phosphoric acid and once in methanol prior to drying and scintillation counting.(b) Evaluation of Brain and Plasma Concentrations in an In Vivo Cassette Mouse ModelThe compounds of this invention were evaluated in an in vivo cassette mouse model to determine brain and plasma concentrations following oral dosing. This is an industry-standard and recognised means to assess brain penetration of small molecules (for recent literature article, refer to: in vitro permeability analysis, pharmacokinetic and brain distribution study in mice of imperatorin, isoimperatorin and cnidilin in Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, Fitoterapia, Volume 85, March 2013, Pages 144-153). It is also recognised that higher brain concentrations (and higher ratios of brain:plasma concentration) lead to greater exposure in the brainthis is clearly advantageous if the brain is the site of action.Experimental Method:For a single cassette study, male CD-1 mice were used (n=3 per timepoint, three timepoints: 1.0 hr, 3.0 hr and 8.0 hr).5 compounds were dosed PO per cassette (dose level 2.5 mg/kg per compound, dose conc. 0.25 mg/ml, dose volume 10.0 ml/kg).Formulation used to solubilize compounds: 10% DMSO/90% hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (20% w/v aqueous)Sampling was terminal and plasma and brain matrices were generated. To prepare plasma samples, protein was precipitated using acetonitrile. To prepare brain samples, homogenisation and protein precipitation was performed with acetonitrile. Samples were analysed using HPLC-TOF MS using electrospray ionisation.

Assay: TAM Kinase Assay: The kinase assay buffer contained 50 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% NP-40 and 2 mM DTT. 0.1 ul test compounds dissolved in DMSO were transferred from compound plates to white 384-well assay plates (Greiner LUMITRAC plates). The final concentration of DMSO was 1.25%. Enzyme solutions of 5.1 nM phosphor-Axl (see Axl autophosphorylation assay above), or 0.0625 nM c-Mer (Carna Biosciences, 08-108), or 0.366 nM Tyro3 (Life Technologies, PR7480A) were prepared in assay buffer. A 1 mM stock solution of peptide substrate Biotin-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-amide SEQ ID NO: 1 (Quality Controlled Biochemicals, MA) dissolved in DMSO was diluted to 1 uM in assay buffer containing 2000 uM ATP. 4 ul enzyme solution (or assay buffer for the enzyme blank) was added to the appropriate wells in each plate, and then 4 ul/well substrate solution was added to initiate the reaction. The plate was protected from light and incubated at room temperature for 60 min. The reaction was stopped by adding 4 ul detection solution containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.8, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% BSA, 45 mM EDTA, 180 nM SA-APC (Perkin Elmer, CR130-100) and 3 nM Eu-W1024 anti-phosphotyrosine PY20 (Perkin Elmer, AD0067). The plate was incubated for 1 h at room temperature, and HTRF (homogenous time resolved fluorescence) signal was measured on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG labtech). Percentage of inhibition was calculated for each concentration and IC50 value was generated from curve fitting with GraphPad Prism software.

Assay: ThermoFluor Assay: ThermoFluor is a fluorescence based assay that estimates ligand binding affinities by measuring the effect of a ligand on protein thermal stability (Pantoliano, M. W., Petrella, E. C., Kwasnoski, J. D., Lobanov, V. S., Myslik, J., Graf, E., Carver, T., Asel, E., Springer, B. A., Lane, P., and Salemme, F. R. (2001) High-density miniaturized thermal shift assays as a general strategy for drug discovery. J Biomol Screen 6, 429-40, and Matulis, D., Kranz, J. K., Salemme, F. R., and Todd, M. J. (2005) Thermodynamic stability of carbonic anhydrase: measurements of binding affinity and stoichiometry using ThermoFluor. Biochemistry 44, 5258-66). This approach is applicable to a wide variety of systems, and rigorous in theoretical interpretation through quantitation of equilibrium binding constants (KD).In a ThermoFluor experiment where protein stability is monitored as the temperature is steadily increased, an equilibrium binding ligand causes the midpoint of an unfolding transition (Tm) to occur at a higher temperature. The shift in the melting point described as a ΔTm is proportional to the concentration and affinity of the ligand. The compound potency may be compared as a rank order of either ΔTm values at a single compound concentration or in terms of KD values, estimated from concentration response curves.

Assay: PI 3-Kinase HTRF Assay: Briefly, the assay is a time resolved FRET assay that indirectly measures PIP3 product formed by the activity of a PI3-K. The kinase reaction is performed in a microtitre plate (e.g., a 384 well microtitre plate). The total reaction volume is approximately 20 ul per well. In the first step, each well receives 2 ul of test compound in 20% dimethylsulphoxide resulting in a 2% DMSO final concentration. Next, approximately 14.5 ul of a kinase/PIP2 mixture (diluted in 1x reaction buffer) is added per well for a final concentration of 0.25-0.3 ug/ml kinase and 10 uM PIP2. The plate is sealed and incubated for 15 minutes at room temperature. To start the reaction, 3.5 ul of ATP (diluted in 1x reaction buffer) is added per well for a final concentration of 10 uM ATP. The plate is sealed and incubated for 1 hour at room temperature. The reaction is stopped by adding 5 ul of Stop Solution per well and then 5 ul of Detection Mix is added per well. The plate is sealed, incubated for 1 hour at room temperature, and then read on an appropriate plate reader.

Assay: Compound Profiling Methods: Strains expressing SCD1 or SCD5 as the sole desaturase, the human SCD1 and SCD5 genes were used to evaluate inhibition of SCD1/SCD5 using reduced growth as a surrogate for SCD inhibition. These yeast strains express human SCD1 or SCD5 from a plasmid harbored in a strain in which the yeast OLE1 gene is deleted.All compound profiling experiments were performed using the same basic protocol. Yeast were cultured using standard techniques in complete synthetic media lacking uracil and containing yeast nitrogen base supplemented with 2% (w/v) glucose (SD-Ura) Starter cultures were inoculated in 3 mL SD-Ura media containing 0.01% tween and 0.2 mM palmitoleic and oleic acid. Cultures were incubated overnight in a 30° C. shaker incubator (225 rpm). Saturated morning cultures were centrifuged, washed in SD-Ura media lacking TWEEN-20 and fatty acids, and then diluted 1:20 in fresh SD-Ura media also lacking TWEEN-20 and fatty acids. Cells were grown for 6 h to an  (optical density) of 0.4-0.8 at 30° C. with shaking.Compound stocks (10 mM in 100% DMSO) were arrayed into 384-round well, v-bottom polypropylene plates and diluted according to indicated dilution factors. Compound administration was performed in two separate steps. First, 15 μL of SD-Ura was dispensed into clear 384-well assay plates using a MULTIDROP Combi reagent dispenser. The diluted compound stock plates were then applied to the assay plates using an automated workstation (Perkin Elmer JANUS) outfitted with a 384-pin tool containing slotted pins that deliver 100 nL of compound. The cultures described above were centrifuged and washed with media lacking TWEEN-20 or oleic and palmitoleic acids. Cultures were then resuspended at a 2-fold concentrated  of 0.02 (final  of 0.0.01) in SD-Ura. 15 μL of diluted culture was then dispensed into the pinned assay plate to achieve 30 μL of the 1× culture (0.01) and a top drug concentration of 33.3 μM.After yeast delivery, assay plates were incubated under humidified conditions at 30° C. for 40 h. Yeast growth was monitored by reading the  of each well using a microplate reader (Perkin Elmer EnVision). Data were analyzed as follows. Raw data were processed by background subtracting and converting values to a percent of the nontreated condition for that strain [(EXP-0.035)/(DMSO-0.035)×100%].

Assay: h-SERT Binding Assay: The [3H] citalopram binding was measured according to the method disclosed in Owens M. J. et al., J. Pharm. Exp. Ther., 283, 1305-1322 (1997). In specific, a solution of 200 μL in total was prepared by mixing 50 μL of [3H] citalopram (manufactured by GE Healthcare) diluted with a SERT buffer (final concentration: about 2 nmol/L), 149 μL of the h-SERT/CHO membrane preparation (protein amount: 40 μg/well), and 1 μL of the test drug dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide. The solution was reacted at room temperature for 60 minutes, and then quickly suction-filtered under reduced pressure through a glass fiber filter coated with 0.05% aq. polyethyleneimine. The glass fiber filter was washed twice with 250 HL of the SERT buffer, placed in a plastic vial containing 4 mL of liquid scintillator (ACS-II, manufactured by Amersham) or Ecoscint A (manufactured by National Diagnostics), and the remaining radioactivity on the filter paper was assayed with a liquid scintillation counter. The non-specific binding of [3H] citalopram was defined as a binding amount in the presence of 1 μmol/L clomipramine (manufactured by Sigma Aldrich) The IC50 value was calculated according to Hill analysis [see, Hill A. V., J. Physiol., 40, 190-200 (1910)], and the binding inhibition constant (Ki) was calculated according to the following formula:Binding inhibition constant (Ki)=IC50/(1+S/Kd)wherein S is a concentration of the added [3H] citalopram, and Kd is a binding dissociation constant of [3H] citalopram which was calculated from a saturated binding assay using the same cell membrane. A lower Ki value (i.e. a lower h-SERT binding inhibition constant) means that the test drug has a stronger human serotonin reuptake inhibitory action.

UniProt: P35372
Assay: Competitive Displacement Assay: Membrane protein from CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovarian) cells that stably expressed one type of the cloned human opioid receptor were incubated with 12 different concentrations of the compound in the presence of 0.25 nM [3H]DAMGO, 0.2 nM [3H]naltrindole or 1 nM [3H]U69,593 in a final volume of 1 mL of 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5 at 25° C. Incubation times of 60 min were used for [3H]DAMGO and [3H]U69,593. Because of a slower association of [3H]naltrindole with the receptor, a 3 h incubation was used with this radioligand. Samples incubated with [3H]naltrindole also contained 10 mM MgCl2 and 0.5 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. Nonspecific binding was measured by inclusion of 10 μM naloxone. The binding was terminated by filtering the samples through Schleicher & Schuell No. 32 glass fiber filters using a Brandel 48-well cell harvester. The filters were subsequently washed three times with 3 mL of cold 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, and were counted in 2 mL Ecoscint A scintillation fluid. For [3H]naltrindole and [3H]U69,593 binding, the filters were soaked in 0.1% polyethylenimine for at least 60 min before use.

Target: Catenin beta-1/Protein Wnt-3a (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P56704
Assay: Evaluation of Biological Activity: Compounds that enhance the Wnt activity, or Activators, were assayed as follows. Reporter cell lines were generated by stably transducing cells of colon cancer cell lines (with a lentiviral construct that included a Wnt-responsive promoter driving expression of the firefly luciferase gene).Lentiviral constructs were made in which the SP5 promoter, a promoter having eight TCF/LEF binding sites derived from the SP5 promoter, was linked upstream of the firefly luciferase gene. The lentiviral constructs also included a hygromycin resistance gene as a selectable marker. The SP5 promoter construct was used to transduce SW480 cells, a colon cancer cell line having a mutated APC gene that generates a truncated APC protein, leading to de-regulated accumulation of β-catenin.Cultured SW480 cells bearing a reporter construct were distributed at approximately 10,000 cells per well into 384- or 96-well multiwell plates. Compounds from a small molecule compound library were then added to the wells in half-log dilutions using a maximum concentration of three or ten micromolar. A series of control wells for each cell type received only buffer and compound solvent DMSO. Twenty-four hours after the addition of compound, reporter activity for luciferase was assayed, for example, by addition of the BrightGlo luminescence reagent (Promega) and the Victor3 plate reader (Perkin Elmer). Readings were normalized to DMSO only treated cells, and any activities above DMSO were considered activation. Compounds were considered activators if reporter activities were 2× fold or greater than DMSO. EC50 is the concentration at half maximal activation.

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 (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 recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by Ni2+-affinity resin. Purified protein was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT, 100 mg/ml bovine serum albumin, delipidated) to obtain a RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM. Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody was also added to this solution (1.25 nM). Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed (32,000 cells per ml in 25 mM Tris, 50 mM NaCl) and the previously frozen lysate was added to the diluted RORγ-LBD solution at a ratio of 0.75 ml SF9 lysate per 15 ml of diluted RORγ-LBD.Compounds to be tested were injected to the 384-well assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, CA).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-SPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSP) (SEQ ID NO:1) and APC-conjugated streptavidin (final concentrations 100 nM and 8 nM respectively) were also added to each well.

In the assay, the final concentration of enzyme was 1 pM, 2 pM and 30 pM for NDM-1, IMP-1 and VIM-1, respectively, and the final concentration of CCF2-FA was 1.25 μM. The test inhibitor was dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and diluted 1:50 in the assay, resulting in a final concentration range of 20 μM to 0.00063 μM. In a 384-well microplate, the test inhibitor was incubated with the metallo-β-lactamase enzyme and the substrate for 2 hours at 25° C. Fluorescence at 460 nm following excitation at 405 nm was measured. The IC50 value was determined from semi-logarithmic plots of enzyme inhibition versus inhibitor concentration, with a curve generated using a 4-parameter fit.
