Target: Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase regulatory subunit beta (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O00459
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.

Target: Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60885
Assay: Evaluation of BRD4 binding inhibition ability: The following experiment was performed to evaluate the ability of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline derivative of the present invention to inhibit the interaction between BRD4 (BD1+BD2) bromodomain, one of BET protein family, and tetraacetylated histone H4 peptide.The compound was serially diluted at the ratio of 1:5 in assay buffer from 10 mM stock in DMSO (initial concentration: 100 μM) on white OptiPlate-384 (PerkinElmer). A mixture comprising 100 nM GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) and 100 nM biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 (Lys5,8,12,16) peptide was prepared in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4; 25 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20; 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA); 10 mM dithiothreitol (DTT)). After adding 6 μl of the mixture to the diluent, 6 μl of the pre-mixed AlphaLISA Glutathione Acceptor Beads and AlphaScreen Streptavidin Donor Beads (PerkinElmer, 10 μg/ml in assay buffer, respectively) was added thereto. The samples were incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 minutes (shaking at 300 rpm). Then, the signals were measured with PerkinElmer Envision HTS Multilabel Reader using an alpha screen protocol of PerkinElmer. Each plate contained the negative control in which biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 peptide and GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) were replaced by assay buffer. In the case of using the software GraphPad Prism for calculation, the negative control point was input as a low standard value. The positive control (probe molecule l-BET762 containing protein/peptide mixture) proceeded to pipetting. IC50 value was determined by using GraphPad Prism 3.03 software (or an updated version thereof).

UniProt: Q9H7B4
Assay: SMYD3 Biochemical Assay: The assays were all performed in a buffer consisting of 25 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.0, 1 mM TCEP, 0.005% BSG, and 0.005% Tween 20, prepared on the day of use. Compounds in 100% DMSO (1 ul) were spotted into a 384-well white opaque OptiPlate using a Bravo automated liquid handling platform outfitted with a 384-channel head (Agilent Technologies). DMSO (1 ul) was added to Columns 11, 12, 23, 24, rows A-H for the maximum signal control and 1 ul of SAH, a known product and inhibitor of SMYD3, was added to columns 11, 12, 23, 24, rows I-P for the minimum signal control. A cocktail (40 ul) containing the SMYD3 enzyme was added by Multidrop Combi (Thermo-Fisher). The compounds were allowed to incubate with SMYD3 for 30 min at room temperature, then a cocktail (10 ul) containing SAM and MEKK2 was added to initiate the reaction (final volume=51 ul). The final concentrations of the components were as follows: SMYD3 was 0.4 nM, 3H-SAM was 8 nM, MEKK2 was 12 nM, SAH in the minimum signal control wells was 1 mM, and the DMSO concentration was 2%. The assays were stopped by the addition of non-radiolabeled SAM (10 ul) to a final concentration of 100 uM, which dilutes the 3H-SAM to a level where its incorporation into MEKK2 is no longer detectable. Radiolabeled MEKK2 was detected using a scintillation proximity assay (SPA). 10 uL of a 10 mg/mL solution of SPA beads in 0.5 M citric acid was added and the plates centrifuged at 600 rpm for 1 min to precipitate the radiolabeled MEKK2 onto the SPA beads. The plates were then read in a PerkinElmer TopCount plate reader to measure the quantity of 3H-labeled MEKK2 as disintegrations per minute (dpm) or alternatively, referred to as counts per minute (cpm).% Inhibition Calculation% ⁢ ⁢ inh = 100 - ( dpm cmpd - dpm min dpm max - dpm min ) × 100Where dpm=disintegrations per minute, cmpd=signal in assay well, and min and max are the respective minimum and maximum signal controls.Four-Parameter IC50 FitY = Bottom + ( Top - Bottom ) ( 1 + ( X IC 50 ) Hill ⁢ ⁢ CoefficientWhere top and bottom are the normally allowed to float, but may be fixed at 100 or 0 respectively in a 3-parameter fit.

UniProt: O00767
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: 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.

Assay: EED-H3K27Me3 Peptide Competition Binding Assay by AlphaScreen: To assess the compounds potency in the EED-H3K27Me3 competition binding assay, compounds were serially diluted 3-fold in DMSO to obtain a total of twelve concentrations. Then compounds at each concentration (75 nL of each) were transferred by Mosquito into a 384-well Perkin Elmer ProxiPlate 384 plus plates. 8 uL of solutions containing 30 nM EED (1-441)-His protein and 15 nM biotin-H3K27Me3 (19-33) peptide in the buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 8, 0.02% Tween-20, 0.5% BSA) were added to the wells and then incubated with compound for 20 min. AlphaScreen detection beads mix was prepared immediately before use by mixing nickel chelate acceptor beads and streptavidin donor beads in a 1:1 ratio (Perkin Elmer, Product No. 6760619C/M/R) into the buffer described above. Then 4 μL of detection beads mix was added to the plate and incubate in the dark at the rt for 1 h. The final concentration of donor and acceptor beads was 10 μg/mL for each. Plates were read on EnVision (PerkinElmer) using the AlphaScreen setting adapted for optimal signal detection with a 615 nm filter, after sample excitation at 680 nm. The emission signal at 615 nm was used to quantify compounds inhibition. AlphaScreen signals were normalized based on the reading coming from the positive (maximum signal control) and negative controls (minimum signal control) to give percentage of activities left. The data were then fit to a dose response equation using the program Helios (Novartis) to get the IC50 values. Helios is a Novartis in-house assay data analysis software using the methods described by Normolle, D. P., Statistics in Medicine, 12:2025-2042 (1993); Formenko, I. et al, Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 82, 31-37 (2006); Sebaugh, J.

Compounds were diluted as described in the preceding section, and the assay was performed by adding 12 μL of 10 nM biotin-miniPEG-His6 peptide in the above buffer and incubating for 20 min at rt prior to addition of the beads to 10 μg/mL each. The plates were then incubated for 1 h at rt in dark before being read on EnVison.

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: Enzymatic Inhibition Assay: Enzymatic inhibition of PARP14 was measured using a dissociation-enhanced lanthanide fluorescence immunoassay (DELFIA) monitoring the auto-modification of PARP14 by biotinylated nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (biotin-NAD). 1 μL of a dose response curve of each test compound was spotted in 384-well nickel-coated white microplates (Thermo) using a Mosquito (TTP Labtech). Reactions were performed in a 50 μL volume by adding 40 μL of PARP14 in assay buffer (20 mM HEPES pH==8, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 2 mM DTT and 0.002%0 Tween20), incubating with test compound at 25° C. for 30 min, then adding 10 μL of biotin-NAD (Biolog). The final concentrations of PARP14 and biotin-NAD are 50 nM and 3 μM, respectively. Reactions proceeded at 25° C. for 3 h, then were quenched with 5 μL of 10 mM unmodified nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (Sigma-Aldrich). The quenched reactions were washed 3 times with 100 μL of TBST wash buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl and 0.1% Tween20). Next, to the washed and dried plate was added 25 μL of DELFIA Europium-N1 streptavidin (Perkin Elmer) diluted in DELFIA assay buffer (Perkin Elmer). After a 30 min incubation at 25° C., the plate was washed 5 times with TBST wash buffer. Finally, 25 μL of DELFIA enhancement solution was added. After a 5 min incubation the plate was read on an Envision platereader equipped with a LANCE/DELFIA top mirror (Perkin Elmer) using excitation of 340 nm and emission of 615 nm to measure the amount of Europium present in each well, informing on the amount of biotin-NAD that was transferred in the automodification reaction.

These chemical compounds were from the LOPAC 1280 collection, the Prestwick chemical library, the Pharmakon collection, the MicroSource Spectrum collection, the Life Chemicals library, the Greenpharma natural compound library, the Enamine library, the ChemBridge library, the Chem-X-Infinity library, and the BioFocus DPI library. Purified fascin protein (15 μL of 0.5 μM) in buffer (100 mM KCl, 20 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.5, 2 mM MgCl2) was added into each well of a clear 384-well flat-bottom plate (Corning) using Thermo Multidrop Combi (Fisher). Compound (180 mL) solutions (5 mM stock) from various chemical libraries were pin transferred from stock 384-well plates into the 384-well assay plates and incubated for 30 min. Then 15 μL of 0.5 μM polymerized actin (in 100 mM KCl, 20 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.5, 2 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM ATP) (Cytoskeleton Inc.) was added, resulting in 30 μM final concentration for chemical compounds. After another 30 min, 10 μL of Alexa Fluoro 488 Phalloidin (25 times dilution from stocks in 100% methanol, Invitrogen) was added to stain F-actin and was incubated in the dark for one hour. Mixed solution (25 μL) was then transferred to one well in a black 384-well plate coated with poly-D-lysine, and stained actin bundles or F-actin would stick onto the poly-D-lysine plates. After the plates were thoroughly washed with 1×PBS for 3 times, the plate was imaged using an ImageXpress Micro High Content Screening System (Molecular devices). The images were processed and analyzed using MetaMorph software. The raw image data for each well was background-corrected by subtraction of the median intensities across all wells on the plate. The background-corrected data was used to compute the bundle length for each well. The negative control wells were employed for quality control: multiple DMSO-only control wells (16 wells/plate) were present on each assay plate. The top ten compounds with the shortest bundle length on each plate were chosen for subsequent confirmative screens. In the confirmative screens, 700 compounds were tested in duplicate. One hundred and forty-five compounds with confirmed responses were picked and preceded to the IC50 studies.In confirmative screening of selected compounds, a control with another actin-bundling protein, fimbrin, was used to eliminate compounds that are not specific to fascin. Also in confirmative screening, each compound was tested in duplicate on the same plate.

Assay: Biochemical Assay: Dilution plates were prepared at 21 times the final concentration (2100 μM for a final concentration of 100 μM) in 50% DMSO in a 96-well polypropylene V-bottom plate (Greiner #651201). A typical 8-point dilution series to be 100, 30, 10, 3, 1, 0.3, 0.1, 0.03 μM final. Reactions were performed in duplicate in black 384 well plates (small volume, Greiner 784076) in a final reaction volume of 21 μl. Either 1 μl of 50% DMSO or diluted compound was added to the plate. USP30 was diluted in reaction buffer (40 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 0.005% Tween 20, 0.5 mg/ml BSA, 5 mM beta-mercaptoethanol) to the equivalent of 0.05 μl/well and 10 μl of diluted USP30 was added to the compound. Enzyme and compound were incubated for 30 min at room temp. Reactions were initiated by the addition of 50 nM of TAMRA labelled peptide linked to ubiquitin via an iso-peptide bond as fluorescence polarisation substrate. Reactions were read immediately after addition of substrate and following a 2 hr incubation at room temperature. Readings were performed on a Pherastar Plus (BMG Labtech). λ Excitation 540 nm; λ Emission 590 nm.
