Target: Cyclin-dependent kinase 2/cyclin E1 (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P24864
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.

Target: High affinity nerve growth factor receptor (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P04629
Assay: Biological Assay: TrkA functional activity was measured using a DiscoverX PathHunter assay. In this assay, U2OS cells express the human TrkA receptor as a fusion with the weakly complementing fragment of B-galactosidase, which DiscoverX calls Prolink (PK); additionally, Shc1 is fused with a larger fragment, which is called Enzyme Acceptor (EA). Activation of the TrkA receptor, upon NGF addition, results in the kinase domain being phosphorylated, resulting in subsequent recruitment of Shc1-EA protein. That recruitment results in an active B-galactosidase enzyme that is detected by addition of a chemiluminescent substrate. The human p75NTR protein was also expressed as a co-receptor for NGF.

The test compound was diluted with 25% DMSO in H2O to yield a final 0.5% DMSO concentration. which also served as a respective vehicle control. The assay was started by adding wheat germ agglutinin coated SPA beads (GE Healthcare UK Ltd. Buckinghamshire. UK) which had been preloaded with hMOP receptor membranes (PerkinElmer Life Sciences. Inc. Boston. Mass. USA). After incubation for 60 minutes at RT and centrifugation for 20 minutes at 500 rpm the signal rate was measured by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux β-counter (PerkinElmer Life Sciences/Wallac. Turku. Finland). Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values reflecting 50% displacement of [3H]nociceptin-specific receptor binding were calculated by nonlinear regression analysis and Ki values were calculated by using the Cheng-Prusoff equation. (Cheng and Prusoff. 1973).

Target: Toll-like receptor 7 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q9NYK1
Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assays: HEK-Blue-cells (Invivogen) overexpressing human TLR7, TLR8 or TLR9 receptors were used for screening inhibitors of these receptors using an inducible SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. Briefly, cells are seeded into Greiner 384 well plates (15000 cells per well for TLR7, 20,000 for TLR8 and 25,000 for TLR9) and then treated with test compounds in DMSO to yield a final dose response concentration range of 0.05 nM-50 μM. After a 30 minute compound pre-treatment at room temperature, the cells are then stimulated with a TLR7 ligand (gardiquimod at a final concentration of 7.5 μM), TLR8 ligand (R848 at a final concentration of 15.9 μM) or TLR9 ligand (ODN2006 at a final concentration of 5 nM) to activate NF-κB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP. After a 22 hour incubation at 37° C., 5% CO2, SEAP levels are determined with the addition of HEK-Blue Detection reagent (Invivogen), a cell culture medium that allows for detection of SEAP, according to manufacturer's specifications. The percent inhibition is determined as the % reduction in the HEK-Blue signal present in wells treated with agonist plus DMSO alone compared to wells treated with a known inhibitor.

Assay: Opioid Receptor Binding Assay: The Ki (binding affinity) for opioid receptors was determined using a competitive displacement assay as previously described in Neumeyer (Journal of Med. Chem. 2012, p 3878), which is incorporated herein in its entirety. Briefly, membrane protein from CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovarian) cells that stably expressed the cloned human opioid receptor were incubated with 12 different concentrations of the compound set forth herein in the presence of 0.25 nM [3H]DAMGO (see Tiberi et al., Can. J. Physiol. Pharmacol. 1988, Vol. 66, p 1368, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety) 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 (see Gulati et al., Life Sci. 1990, Vol. 47, p 159, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). Nonspecific binding was measured by inclusion of 10 M 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. IC50 values were calculated by least squares fit to a logarithm-probit analysis. Ki values of unlabelled compounds were calculated from the equation Ki=(IC50)/1+S where S=(concentration of radioligand)/(Kd of radioligand) (Cheng and Prusoff, 1973).

UniProt: O43614
Assay: FLIPR Ca2+ Flux Assay: All reagents were from GIBCO-Invitrogen Corp. The seeded plates are incubated overnight at 37° C. and 5% CO2. Ala-6,12 human orexin-A as the agonist is prepared as a 1 mM stock solution in 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and diluted in assay buffer (HBSS containing 20 mM HEPES, 0.1% BSA and 2.5 mM probenecid, pH7.4) for use in the assay at a final concentration of 70pM. Test compounds are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates, first in DMSO, then assay buffer. On the day of the assay, cells are washed 3 times with 100 μl assay buffer and then incubated for 60 min (37° C., 5% CO2) in 60 μl assay buffer containing 1 μM Fluo-4AM ester, 0.02% pluronic acid, and 1% BSA. The dye loading solution is then aspirated and cells are washed 3 times with 100 μl assay buffer. 30 μl of that same buffer is left in each well. Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR, Molecular Devices), test compounds are added to the plate in a volume of 25 μl, incubated for 5 min and finally 25 μl of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals for 5 minutes and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 70 pM Ala-6,12 orexin-A with buffer in place of antagonist. For each antagonist, IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonist response) is determined. Alternatively, compound potency can be assessed by a radioligand binding assay (described in Bergman et. al. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2008, 18, 1425-1430) in which the inhibition constant (Ki) is determined in membranes prepared from CHO cells expressing either the OX1 or OX2 receptor. The intrinsic orexin receptor antagonist activity of a compound which may be used in the present invention may be determined by these assays.

Assay: In Vitro Assay: MALT1 protease activity was assessed in an in vitro assay using a tetrapeptide as substrate and full-length MALT1 protein (Strep-MALT1(1-824)-His) purified from baculovirus-infected insect cells. The tetrapeptide LRSR is coupled to AMC (7-amino-4-methylcoumarin) and provides a quenched, fluorescent substrate for the MALT1 protease (SM Biochemicals). Cleavage of AMC from the Arginine residue results in an increase in coumarin fluorescence measured at 460 nm (excitation 355 nm). The final assay buffer consisted of 10 nM FL MALT1 protein, 200 μM Ac-LRSR-AMC, 50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 0.6 M Citrate, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA, 0.05% BSA and 1.5% DMSO. Test compounds were spotted at 50 nL in 100% DMSO per well of a black 384-Proxiplate (Perkin Elmer). Test compound concentrations ranged from 30 μM to 0.5 nM using 11 dilution steps (1:3). Background signal was measured from control wells containing assay buffer without enzyme which functions as low control (LC). High control (HC) values were generated using the reaction with enzyme but no compound treatment. Compounds were pre-incubated with MALT1 enzyme for 50 minutes at RT.

Assay: Btk Enzyme Activity Assay A: Btk enzyme activity is measured using the IMAP (immobilized metal ion affinity-based fluorescence polarization) assay as outlined below. Btk enzyme (His-Btk (Millipore catalog #14-552), is diluted to 0.4 U/mL in KR buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Tween-20, 0.05% NaN3, 1 mM DTT, 2 mM MnCl2, pH 7.2).Serial dilution log 10 from 2 mM to 63.2 nM of test compounds are made in 100% DMSO. The dilutions in DMSO are then diluted 50-fold in KR-buffer. Final compound concentration range in the assay from 10 μM to 0.316 nM. 5 μL/well of test compound in KR buffer (final DMSO concentration in the assay is 1%) is mixed with 5 μl/well of 0.4 U/mL Btk enzyme (final concentration in the assay is 0.1 U/mL). Test compounds and Btk enzyme are pre-incubated 60 minutes at room temperature, before adding 5 μL/well of 200 nM Fluorescin labeled substrate peptide (Blk/Lyntide substrate, e.g. #R7188/#R7233, Molecular Devices) in KR-buffer. Final peptide substrate concentration in assay is 50 nM. The kinase assay is started by adding 5 μL/well of 20 μM ATP in KR-buffer (final ATP concentration is 5 μM ATP, Km ATP in Btk IMAP assay). Following incubation for 2 h at room temperature the enzyme reaction is stopped by adding 40 μL/well IMAP Progressive Binding Solution (according to suppliers (Molecular Devices) protocol using 75% 1× buffer A and 25% 1x buffer B with 1:600 Progressive Binding Solution). After 60 min incubation at room temperature in the dark the FP signal is read. Fluorescence at 535 nm is measured using parallel and perpendicular filters to determine differences in rotation due to binding of the phosphorylated substrate peptide to the beads. Values are calculated as percentage of the difference in readout (ΔmPi) of the controls with and without ATP. EC50 values are determined by curve fitting of the experimental results using Activity Base.

Assay: In Vitro ROCK Assays: The effectiveness of compounds of the present invention as ROCK inhibitors can be determined in a 30 μL assay containing 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 20 mM MgCl2, 0.015% Brij-35, 4 mM DTT, 5 μM ATP and 1.5 μM peptide substrate (FITC-AHA-AKRRRLSSLRA-OH). 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: 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.
