Target: Complement factor D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P00746
Assay: Factor D Esterolytic Assay: An established esterolytic assay for the measurement of Factor D activity and inhibition of Factor D activity was used (Kam, C. M.; McRae, B. J.; Harper, J. W.; Niemann, M. A.; Volanakis, J. E.; Powers, J. C. Human complement proteins D, C2, and B Active site mapping with peptide thioester substrates. J Biol. Chem. 1987, 262, 3444-3451). For this assay Z-Lys-SBzl, 1.29 mM (Kim, S.; Narayana, S. V. L; Volanakis, J. E. Mutational analysis of the substrate binding site of human complement Factor D. Biochemistry. 1994, 33, 14393-14399.) was used as the substrate for Factor D (104 mM). Hydrolysis of this compound by Factor D liberated a free sulfhydryl group which is then reacted with 5,5′-dithiobis(2nitrobenzoic acid) producing an intense yellow color (Habeeb, A. F. S. A. Reaction of protein sulfhydryl groups with Ellman's Reagent. Methods in Enzymol. 1976, 25, 457-464). The assays were performed in 96 well microtiter plates and rates of hydrolysis were monitored at 405 nm on a Biotek Synergy H1 plate reader. Hydrolysis rates were reported as change in mOD/min. The assay was conducted in 100 mM HEPES, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 containing 10% DMSO in a final volume of 50 μL per well.

UniProt: P56373
Assay: Human P2X3 Receptor Inhibition Assay: Stably expressing cell line (C6BU-1 transfected with human P2X3 receptor gene (GenBank accession number Y07683) was used. 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.).

Target: Period circadian protein homolog 2 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O15055
Assay: Per2 Assay: Compounds were screened by using a high-throughput circadian assay system as previously described in Zhang, E. E. et al. Cell, 2009, 139, 199-210. In brief, stable U20S reporter cells harboring Per2-dLuc were plated at a density of 30,000 cells/well in Corning 96-well, solid white, flat bottom, TC-treated microplates (Corning), and incubated for 48 hours at 37° C. in the presence of 5% CO2 in a medium of Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin (100 units/mL)-streptomycin (100 μg/mL). Compounds of formula I are solubilized in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), typically at a concentration of 2 mg/mL. DMSO stocks are then serially diluted in DMSO, typically diluting 3-fold for each dilution step. Following the 48 h period, cell culture medium is removed from plated cells and cells are synchronized with 200 μL/well of complete cell culture medium (described above), supplemented with 5 μM forskolin (Tocris) and 1 mM beetle luciferin (Promega). Immediately following synchronization, 1 μL of compound dilution is added to each well. Plates are sealed, shaken briefly, and gene expression was monitored by measuring luminescence (Tecan Infinite M200 or Tecan Infinite M200 Pro) continuously for a minimum of 3 days at 35° C. Raw luminescence data (counts) are first analyzed using Multicycle software (Actimetrics, Inc.) to determine the amplitude (amp), period, and phase (phz) for each compound concentration. The period length for control wells (i.e. no compound, DMSO only) should be 26-30 h. Amp data are then plotted against the logarithm compound concentration (M) and analyzed by nonlinear regression analysis to determine the EC50.

Assay: General RORgamma Gal4 Reporter Assay: Inverse agonist activity of potential ligands to RORγ was measured by inhibition of luminescence in a Gal4-luciferase reporter assay in Jurkat cells.Jurkat cells stably over-expressing the RORγ receptor, Jurkat pEx/Gal/hRORγ CLBD/HYG pG5luc/blast, were plated at a concentration of 10,000 cells/well in a 384-well solid white cell culture plate (Perkin Elmer #6007899) in assay buffer RPMI 1640 (Gibco 11875-085 1L) containing 0.1% BSA, 100×HEPES (Gibco 15360-080), 100 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco 11360-040), 50 mg/mL Hygromycin B (Invitrogen 10687-010) and 10 mg/mL blasticidin (Invitrogen R210-01). 100 nL of test compound in a 3-fold serial dilution, with final concentrations ranging from 40 μM to 0.67 nM, were added to the cells which were then incubated overnight.The following day, cells were lysed with 10 μL of Steady-Glo Luciferase Assay System (Promega Cat. No. EZ550), and analyzed immediately. IC50 values were determined. The IC50 value is defined as the concentration of test compound needed to reduce luciferase activity by 50% and is calculated using the four parameter logistic equation to fit the normalized data.

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).

Target: Tyrosine-protein kinase BTK (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q06187
Assay: Human BTK LanthaScreen Assay: TR-FRET LanthaScreen assays were performed by incubating a dilution series of inhibitor concentrations with 50 μM ATP, 100 nM FAM-Srctide peptide substrate (5FAM-GEEPLYWSFPAKKK-NH2, SEQ ID NO: 1, Molecular Devices, RP7595) and 70 μM of human full-length BTK Kinase (expressed in Sf9 insect cells and purified in-house). The assays were performed with and without pre-incubating the inhibitors with the enzyme for 60 minutes before starting the kinase reaction by adding ATP and the peptide substrate. Samples containing enzyme but no inhibitor were included to determine the maximal extent of reaction. Samples containing no enzyme served as the negative control. The kinase reaction mixtures were incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes before stopping the kinase activity by the addition of 15 mM EDTA. The extent of peptide phosphorylation by BTK was detected using a Terbium-conjugated anti-phospho-Tyrosine antibody (Tb-PT66 antibody, invitrogen # PV3557). Phosphorylation of peptide substrate was measured by determining the ratio of 520/495 nm on an Envision Multi-label Reader (Perkin Elmer) and IC50 values were calculated by fitting the data to a four-parameter equation using XLFit4 (IDBS).

Assay: Fluorescence Direct Binding Asaay: Determination of the affinities of compounds to protein containing one or more tryptophan is measurable by monitoring the fluorescence emission in direct mode. The measurements, depending on the protein available amounts, were performed either manually in a cuvette on ISS-PCI photon counting spectrofluorometer or automatically in well plates on a fluorescence plate reader device. Fluorescence titrations were performed at 20° C. in the chosen binding assay buffer by using a defined constant protein concentration against ligand concentration variations. Small aliquots of known ligand concentration solubilized in DMSO were added and the fluorescence, excited at 280 nm, was recorded at 340 nm. The fluorescence intensity was corrected for protein dilution and for the filter effect (Birdsall, B., King, R. W., Wheeler, M. R., Lewis, C. A. Jr, Goode, S. R., Dunlap, R. B. & Roberts, G. C. (1983). Anal. Biochem.132, 353-361). The corrected fluorescence intensity was plotted against the ligand concentration and fitted using a four-parameter sigmoidal function from which the equilibrium dissociation constant Kd was computed using the law of mass action assuming a 1:1 proteinligand complex (Eftink, Methods Enzymol. 1997; 278:221-57). The process includes:Optimization of measurement parameters to minimize protein consumption and to minimize the dilution effect and the DMSO content. Titration measurements of the protein against ligand by at least 12 titration steps to obtain an s-curve fit. Repeat the same titration measurements with the ligand alone to enable correction. Check the stability of the protein once by titration against DMSO alone. Determination of the molar extinction coefficients of the ligand at 280 and 340 nm with help of an UV-spectrophotometer. Use Excel template for the correction of the measured raw data. Use GraphPad Prism software for the quadratic binding fit and the KD evaluation.

Assay: cAMP HRTF® Assay: The test compound or water (control) is mixed with the human recombinant PDE4B1 enzyme (4.8 U) in a buffer consisting of 44.4 mM tris-HCl, 5.28 mM MgCl2, 2.64 mM DTT and 0.044% Tween 20 (pH 7.8). After adding the cAMP enzyme substrate (final concentration 40 nM) the mixture is incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then a fluorescence acceptor (Dye2 marked with cAMP), a fluorescence donor (anti-cAMP antibody marked with a europium cryptate) and the non-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine; final concentration 1 mM) are added. After 60 minutes the fluorescence transfer, which correlates with the amount of remaining cAMP, is measured with a microplate reader (Rubystar, BMG) at λex=337 nm, λem=620 nm and λem=665 nm. The enzyme activity is calculated from the quotient formed from the measured signal at 665 nm and that at 620 nm.

Assay: Binding Assay: D1 binding assays were performed using over-expressing LTK human cell lines. To determine basic assay parameters, ligand concentrations were determined from saturation binding studies where the Kd for [3H]-SCH23390 was found to be 1.3 nM. From tissue concentration curve studies, the optimal amount of tissue was determined to be 1.75 mg/mL per 96 well plate using 0.5 nM of [3H]-SCH23390. These ligand and tissue concentrations were used in time course studies to determine linearity and equilibrium conditions for binding. Binding was at equilibrium with the specified amount of tissue in 30 minutes at 37° C. From these parameters, Ki values were determined by homogenizing the specified amount of tissue for each species in 50 mM Tris (pH 7.4 at 4° C.) containing 2.0 mM MgCl2 using a Polytron and spun in a centrifuge at 40,000×g for 10 minutes. The pellet was resuspended in assay buffer [50 mM Tris (pH 7.4@ RT) containing 4 mM MgSO4 and 0.5 mM EDTA]. Incubations were initiated by the addition of 200 μL of tissue to 96-well plates containing test drugs (2.5 μL) and 0.5 nM [3H]-SCH23390 (50 μL) in a final volume of 250 μL. Non-specific binding was determined by radioligand binding in the presence of a saturating concentration of (+)-Butaclamol (10 μM), a D1 antagonist. After a 30 minute incubation period at 37° C., assay samples were rapidly filtered through Unifilter-96 GF/B PEI-coated filter plates and rinsed with 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 7.4 at 4° C.). Membrane bound [3H]-SCH23390 levels were determined by liquid scintillation counting of the filterplates in Ecolume.

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: Kinase Assay: For the assay, 11 different concentrations in the range from 20 μM to 0.073 nM were prepared from a 2 mM solution of the test substance in DMSO. For the assay, 50 nl of the respective solution were pipetted into a black low-volume 384-well microtitre plate (Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μl of a solution of Irak4 in assay buffer [50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 1.0 mM dithiothreitol, 30 μM activated sodium orthovanadate, 0.1% (w/v) of bovine gamma-globulin (BGG) 0.04% (v/v) nonidet-P40 (Sigma)] were added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min to allow prebinding of the substances to the enzyme prior to the kinase reaction. The kinase reaction was then started by addition of 3 μl of a solution of adenosine triphosphate (ATP, 1.67 mM=final concentration in 5 μl of assay volume: 1 μM) and peptide substrate (0.83 μM=final concentration in 5 μl assay volume: 0.5 μM) in assay buffer, and the resulting mixture was incubated at 22° C. for the reaction time of 45 min. The concentration of the Irak4 was adjusted to the respective activity of the enzyme and set such that the assay was carried out in the linear range. Typical concentrations were in the order of about 0.2 nM. The reaction was stopped by addition of 5 μl of a solution of TR-FRET detection reagents [0.1 μM streptavidin-XL665 (Cisbio Bioassays; France, catalogue No. 610SAXLG) and 1.5 nM anti-phosphoserin antibody [Merck Millipore, STK Antibody, catalogue No. 35-002] and 0.6 nM LANCE EU-W1024-labelled anti-mouse-IgG antibody (Perkin-Elmer, product No. AD0077, alternatively it is possible to use a terbium cryptate-labelled anti-mouse-IgG antibody from Cisbio Bioassays) in aqueous EDTA solution (100 mM EDTA, 0.4% [w/v] bovine serum albumin [BSA] in 25 mM HEPES pH 7.5).

Assay: High-Throughput Competitive Fluorescence Polarization (FP) Screening Assay: A high-throughput competitive fluorescence polarization (FP) screening assay (Z-factor, 0.62) was developed based on the direct binding interaction between FITC-MCL-1 SAHBA and MCL-1ΔNΔC (EC50, 14 nM) (FIGS. 1A, 2A, and 3A). A compilation of 71,296 small molecules was screened for the capacity to displace FITC-MCL-1 SAHBA from recombinant MCL-1ΔNΔC (aa 172-327) (FIG. 4). To enrich for MCL-1-selective molecules by detecting binding activity for the BCL-XL subclass of anti-apoptotic proteins, the library was also counterscreened using a competitive FP assay (Z-factor, 0.71) developed based on the direct and selective interaction between FITC-BAD BH3 and BCL-XLΔC (EC50, 26 nM) (FIGS. 1B, 2B, and 3B). Small molecules with an apparent preference for MCL-1ΔNΔC (208 compounds, 0.3% hit rate), as defined both by >50% displacement of the FITC-MCL-1 SAHBA/MCL-1ΔNΔC interaction and a >45% difference in peptide displacement from MCL-1ΔNΔC vs. BCL-XLΔC, were advanced to increasingly stringent confirmatory in vitro binding assays including: (1) repeat single-dose testing of 208 molecules in the differential competitive FP screen; (2) alternative single-dose selectivity screen for 130 confirmed MCL-1-directed antagonists comparing relative displacement of FITC-BID BH3, a dual binder,35 from MCL-1 ΔNΔC vs. BCL-XLΔC; and then (3) dose-responsive competitive binding of the 64 most selective molecules against the FITC-MCL-1 SAHBA/MCL-1 ΔNΔC complex (FIG. 4).

Assay: FLIPR Ca2+ Flux Assay: In a typical experiment the OX1 and OX2 receptor antagonistic activity of the compounds of the present invention was determined in accordance with the following experimental method. For intracellular calcium measurements, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the rat orexin-1 receptor or the human orexin-2 receptor, are grown in Iscove's modified DMEM containing 2 mM L-glutamine, 0.5 g/ml G418, 1% hypoxanthine-thymidine supplement, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS). The cells are seeded at 20,000 cells/well into Becton-Dickinson black 384-well clear bottom sterile plates coated with poly-D-lysine. 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 70 pM. 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.

Assay: Inhibition of Tautomerase Activity of Human MIF: Inhibition of the tautomerase activity of MIF was measured using 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvic acid (HPP) as substrate, largely following previously reported protocols (Taylor et al., Biochemistry, 1999, 38, 7444-7452). HPP was dissolved in 0.5 M acetate buffer, pH 6.0 to a final concentration of 10 mM and incubated overnight at room temperature to allow equilibration of the keto and enol forms. MIF (6 μL) was premixed in 500 mM boric acid, pH 6.2 (142 μL) and transferred to a transparent U bottom 96-well plate to a final concentration of 50 nM MIF. At this concentration high signal-to-noise and linearity were observed after analysis of progress curves for enol production at different protein concentrations. Inhibitors were dissolved in DMSO to 10 mM and an initial screen was performed. For compounds that showed ca. 25% or greater inhibition at 10 μM, an inhibition constant, was measured.Compounds were placed into wells (2 μL) at 6 different concentrations and incubated for 30 minutes until the assay was started by addition of HPP (504) at two concentrations (1.0 and 2.5 mM). The negative control was MIF incubated with DMSO vehicle, which in all assays was 1% and did not influence tautomerase activity. MIF activity was monitored at 305 nm for formation of the borate-enol complex using an Infinite F500 plate reader (TECAN, Morrisville, N.C.) for 175 seconds. Calculation of initial velocities and the nonlinear regression analyses for the enzyme kinetics were repeated three times with the program Prism6 (GraphPad, La Jolla, Calif.).Data obtained for the Example compounds, obtained using the methods described in Example B, are provided in Table 3. Results are also included for a reference compound ISO-1 (Chang, K. F.; Al-Abed, Y. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2006, 16, 3376-3379; Balachandran, S. et al. Bioorg. Med. Chem.
