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.

UniProt: Q13224
Assay: Effects of Test Articles on Cloned Human NR1/GuN2B Ion Channels Expressed in Mammalian Cells: NMDA receptors are ion channels that are highly permeable to Ca2+ ions, rendering it possible to monitor NMDA receptor function using cell-based calcium flux assay. In this assay, co-agonists glutamate and glycine are added to cells heterologously expressing human GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors to initiate cellular Ca2+ influx. The time course of the changes in intracellular calcium is measured using a fluorescent dye and a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader) device.Twenty-four hours before measurements, the expression of the NMDA receptors in the stable cell line is induced with Tet-On inducible system in the presence of a non-selective NMDA receptor blocker. On the day of the experiment, cell culture media is carefully washed, and the cells are loaded with Calcium 5 Dye Kit (Molecular Devices) in dye loading buffer containing 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2 (standard assay) or 1.5 mM MgCl2 (HTS assay), 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4. After 1 h incubation at the room temperature, the dye is washed away with the assay buffer (137 mM NaCl (standard assay) or 150 mM (HTS assay), 4 mM KCl (standard assay) or 3 mM (HTS assay), 2 mM CaCl2), 0.01 mM EDTA, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4) In the FLIPR TETRA reader, various concentrations of the test compounds are added to the cells for 5 min while fluorescence is monitored to detect potential agonist activity. Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to EC40 (standard assay) or EC40 (HTS assay) is used to maximize the assay's signal window and ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators. A saturating concentration (10 μM) of glycine is also present in the assay. A non-selective NMDA receptor antagonist, (+)MK-801 is used as a positive control for antagonist activity. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Assay: Biological Activity Assay: Kinase enzymatic reactions were performed in 384-well microplates using a 12-channel Caliper LabChip instrument as a detection device. The enzymatic phosphorylation of a peptide results in a change in net charge, enabling electrophoretic separation of product from substrate. As substrate and product are separated, two peaks of fluorescence are observed. Change in the relative fluorescence intensity of the substrate and product peaks is the parameter measured, reflecting enzyme activity. In the presence of an inhibitor, the ratio between product and substrate is altered. The signal of the product decreases, while the signal of the substrate increases.For the measurement of CDK2/cyclinE activity, enzyme (0.22 nM) was incubated with 100 mM ATP and the phosphoacceptor substrate peptide (1 mM) for one hour. For the measurement of CDK4/CyclinD activity, enzyme (0.85 nM) was incubated with 200 mM ATP and the phosphoacceptor substrate peptide (1 mM) for three hours. Potential inhibitor compounds (as HCl salts) were tested using 12-point dose response curves in single point at the Km for ATP.

Assay: Biochemical Assay: The ability of compounds to inhibit CDK7 kinase activity was tested in a TR-FRET assay using 5 nM of CDK7/CycH/MNAT1 obtained from Invitrogen, USA. Test compounds were pre-incubated with the kinase at room temperature for 60 min. After the incubation, substrate mix [100 nM Ultra-light MBP (Perkin Elmer, USA) and 1 mM ATP (Sigma)] was added. The above reaction was stopped by the addition of 40 mM EDTA after 60 minutes of kinase reaction. 1 nM Eu-labelled antiphospho-MBP antibody [Perkin Elmer, USA] was added, mixed well and the fluorescence emission at 615 nm and 665 nm [excitation at 340 nm] was measured. The final DMSO concentration in the assay was 1%. For IC50 determination, appropriate concentrations were made by ⅓rd serial dilutions of 10 mM DMSO stock solution of test compound. All the fluorescence measurements were made in a Victor 3 Multilabel Counter [Perkin Elmer, USA]. The IC50 was determined by fitting the dose response data to sigmoidal curve fitting equation using GraphPad Prism software V5. To identify compounds that inhibit CDK7 irreversibly, time depended inhibition studies were carried by pre-incubating compound with the enzyme at three time points (20, 60 and 180 min) and carrying out assay as described above.

Assay: Biological Assay (standard): NMDA receptors are ion channels that are highly permeable to Ca2+ ions, rendering it possible to monitor NMDA receptor function using cell-based calcium flux assay. In this assay, co-agonists glutamate and glycine are added to cells heterologously expressing human GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors to initiate cellular Ca2+ influx. The time course of the changes in intracellular calcium is measured using a fluorescent dye and a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader) device.Twenty four hours before measurements, the expression of the NMDA receptors in the stable cell line is induced with Tet-On inducible system in the presence of a non-selective NMDA receptor blocker. On the day of the experiment, cell culture media is carefully washed and the cells are loaded with Calcium 5 Dye Kit (Molecular Devices) in dye loading buffer containing 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 0.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4. After 1 h incubation at the room temperature, the dye is washed away with the assay buffer (137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 0.01 mM EDTA, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4) In the FLIPR TETRA reader, various concentrations of the test compounds are added to the cells for 5 min while fluorescence is monitored to detect potential agonist activity. Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to ~EC40 used to maximize the assay's signal window and ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators. A saturating concentration (10 μM) of glycine is also present in the assay. A non-selective NMDA receptor antagonist, (+)MK-801 is used as a positive control for antagonist activity. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Assay: Kinase Enzymatic Assay: Kinase enzymatic reactions were performed in 384-well microplates using a 12-channel Caliper LabChip instrument as a detection device. The enzymatic phosphorylation of a peptide results in a change in net charge, enabling electrophoretic separation of product from substrate. As substrate and product are separated, two peaks of fluorescence are observed. Change in the relative fluorescence intensity of the substrate and product peaks is the parameter measured, reflecting enzyme activity. In the presence of an inhibitor, the ratio between product and substrate is altered. The signal of the product decreases, while the signal of the substrate increases.For the measurement of CDK2/cyclinE activity, enzyme (0.22 nM) was incubated with 100 mM ATP and the phosphoacceptor substrate peptide (1 mM) for one hour. For the measurement of CDK4/CyclinD activity, enzyme (0.85 nM) was incubated with 200 mM ATP and the phosphoacceptor substrate peptide (1 mM) for three hours. Potential inhibitor compounds (as HCl salts) were tested using 12-point dose response curves in single point at the Km for ATP.
