Assay: PHD enzymatic assay: The PHD enzymatic assay was performed in 0.5 ml of reaction mixture containing the following: purified PHD2181-417 polypeptide (3 μg), synthetic HIF-1α peptide comprising residues [KNPFSTGDTDLDLEMLAPYIPMDDDFQLRSFDQLS] (10 μM, California Peptide Research Inc., Napa, Calif.), and [5-14C]-2-oxoglutaric acid (50 mCi/mmol, Moravek Chemicals, Brea, Calif.) in reaction buffer (40 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.4 mg/ml catalase, 0.5 mM DTT, 1 mM ascorbate) for 10 minutes. Compounds were pre-incubated for 30 min before starting the reaction (all test compounds were dissolved at 10 mM in 100% DMSO (w/v) and were tested with final compound concentrations at 100 μM in 1% DMSO (w/v)). The reaction was stopped by addition of 50 μl of 70 mM H3PO4 and 50 μl of 500 mM NaH2PO4, pH 3.2. Detection of [14C]-succinic acid was achieved by separating from [5-14C]-2-oxoglutaric acid by incubating the reaction mixture with 100 μl of 0.16 M DNP prepared in 30% perchloric acid. Next, 50 μl of unlabeled 20 mM 2-oxoglutaric acid/20 mM succinic acid, serving as carrier for the radioactivity, was added to the mixture, and was allowed to proceed for 30 minutes at room temperature. The reaction was then incubated with 50 μl of 1 M 2-oxoglutaric acid for 30 additional minutes at room temperature to precipitate the excess DNP. The reaction was then centrifuged at 2800×g for 10 minutes at room temperature to separate [14C]-succinic acid in the supernatant from the precipitated [14C]-dinitrophenylhydrazone. Fractions of the supernatant (400 μI) were counted using a beta counter (Beckman Coulter, Fullerton, Calif.). Inhibition of PHD2181-417 activity was measured as a decrease in succinic acid production. The IC50 values were estimated by fitting the data to a three-parameter logistic function using GraphPad Prism, version 4.02 (Graph Pad Software, San Diego, Calif.).

Assay: Measurement of Inhibitory Activity Against RET (In Vitro): Regarding the conditions for measurement of in vitro inhibitory activity of compounds against RET kinase activity, the website of AnaSpec states that Srctide (GEEPLYWSFPAKKK) corresponds to the substrate peptide for reaction to measure RET kinase activity. Thus, the amino acid sequence was partly modified and biotinylated to prepare biotinylated peptides (biotin-EEPLYWSFPAKKK). The purified recombinant human RET protein used in the test was purchased from Carna Biosciences, Inc.To measure the inhibitory activity, first, the compounds of the present invention were individually diluted with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) stepwise. Subsequently, RET protein, the substrate peptide (the final concentration: 250 nM), magnesium chloride (the final concentration: 10 mM), ATP (the final concentration: 10 μM), and a solution of the compound of the present invention in DMSO (the final concentration of DMSO: 2.5%) were added to a buffer for kinase reaction (13.5 mM Tris, pH of 7.5, 2 mM dithiothreitol, 0.009% Tween-20). Each of the mixtures was incubated at 25° C. for 100 minutes to perform a kinase reaction. EDTA was then added thereto to give a final concentration of 24 mM so that the reaction was terminated. A detection solution containing Eu-labeled antiphosphotyrosine antibody PT66 (PerkinElmer) and SureLight APC-SA (PerkinElmer) was added thereto, and each mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 2 hours or more. Finally, the intensity of fluorescence under the excitation light with a wavelength of 337 nm was measured with a PHERAstar FS (BMG Labtech) at the two wavelengths of 620 nm and 665 nm. The phosphorylation level was calculated from the ratio of the fluorescence intensity at the two wavelengths, and the compound concentration at which phosphorylation was inhibited by 50% was defined as the IC50 value (nM).

Assay: TR-FRET Binding Assay: A Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) assay that measures the displacement of the 10mer-Thr-FAM probe in response to compound treatment was performed for compounds wherein the IC50 from FPA assay using 10mer-Thr-FAM was below the lower assay IC50 limit 1 nM. Excess 10mer-Thr-FAM probe was utilized with His-tagged WDR5 in conjunction with a commercial anti-His antibody containing a Terbium label. The LanthaScreen Elite Tb-anti-HIS Antibody from ThermoFisher Scientific was used for this purpose. This Tb-anti-HIS has an excitation/emission of 340 nm and 490 nm, respectively. The 10mer-Thr-FAM probe when bound to WDR5 will undergo a FRET interaction with the Tb-anti-HIS and emit at 520 nm. The ratio of the 520 and 495 signals are then utilized to generate a dose-response curve to calculate an IC50 value. By virtue of FRET there is little to no background fluorescence interference from 10mer-Thr-FAM probe allowing an excess of the probe to be used permitting an increase in the lower limit of the calculated Ki when testing against highly potent inhibitors with Ki<<1 nM. WDR5-His Tag (423, residues 24-334) is expressed and purified in our lab in sufficient quantities for screening. 10mer-Thr-FAM peptide is used anywhere from 15 to 150 nM depending on the window of sensitivity required. WDR5-His tag protein is used at 2 nM. A source plate is prepared using an Echo Liquid Handler, which distributes the compounds to the assay plate (white, flat-bottom; OptiPlate) in a 10-point, 3-fold dilution schemes with a top concentration of either 5 or 20 μM depending on the anticipated potency of the compounds, in a final volume of 20 μL. A final target (WDR5)/Tb-Ab concentration of 2 nM/1 nM is dispensed from appropriate stock solutions, respectively. The final DMSO concentration in each well of the assay plate is 1% or lower. As before the plate is covered, shielded from light, and incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature with rocking. Anisotropy is then measured on a Biotek Cytation 3 at excitation wavelength of 340 nm, and emission wavelengths of 495 nm and 520 nm. Working buffer conditions (pH 7.0) are similar to that in FPA above. TR-FRET signal is plotted and IC50 and Ki values are calculated in the same manner as the fluorescence polarization anisotropy based competition assays.

To each well of a white Greiner 1536 Lumitrac 1536 well-plate, 50 nL of compound (100 fold dilution in final assay volume of 5 μL) was dispensed, followed by the addition of 4 μL of 1× assay buffer (50 mM Hepes 7.3, 0.5 mM TCEP, 0.005% Brij-35, 0.02% BSA, 50 μM Na-L-Ascorbate and 2 μM AmFe(II)Sulfate) containing 5 nM of Full-length KDM5B enzyme (recombinant protein from baculovirus-transfected Sf21 cells: full-length KDM5B; MW=176.825 kDa). Following a 30 minutes compound and enzyme incubation in a humidified chamber, each reaction was initiated by the addition of 1 μL 1× assay buffer containing 50 nM biotinylated H3K4Me3 peptide, and 500 nM α-ketoglutarate. The final reaction in each well of 5 μL consists of 5 nM KDM5B, 500 nM biotinylated-peptide, and 500 nM α-ketoglutarate. De-methylation reactions were allowed to proceed for 60 minutes. Reactions were immediately quenched by the addition of 5 uL of 2× Lance Detection Buffer (PerkinElmer) with 0.5 mM EDTA and 2 nM of Eu-anti-H3K4Me1-2 antibody, and 30 nM of Streptavidin-conjugated Dylight 650 detection reagents. 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-H3K4Me1-2-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).

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 test compound with the PRISM 5.0 software.

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.

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: n Vitro Enzymatic BACE1 and BACE2 FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) Assay: 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 luL 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).

Assay: Biological Assay: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., a 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).
