Assay: In Vitro Activity Assay: The assay used to measure the in vitro activity of MGL is adapted from the assay used for another serine hydrolase (FAAH) described in Wilson et al., 2003 (A high-throughput-compatible assay for determining the activity of fatty acid amide hydrolase. Wilson S J, Lovenberg T W, Barbier A J. Anal Biochem. 2003 Jul. 15; 318(2):270-5). The assay consists of combining endogenously expressed MGL from HeLa cells with test compounds, adding [glycerol-1,3-3H]-oleoyl glycerol, incubating for one hour, and then measuring the amount of cleaved [1,3-3H]-glycerol that passes through an activated carbon filter. The amount of cleaved, tritiated glycerol passing through the carbon filter is proportional to the activity of the MGL enzyme in a particular well/test condition. Standard conditions for this assay combine 300 nM [Glycerol-1,3-3H]-oleoyl glycerol with human MGL from HeLa cells and test compounds for one hour, after which the reaction is filtered through activated carbon and tritium is measured in the flow through. The test compound concentration in screening mode is 10 uM, while the highest compound concentration in IC50 assays is determined empirically.

Assay: Biochemical HTRF Assay Protocol: The ability of compounds to inhibit the activity of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and Tyk2 was measured using a recombinant purified GST-tagged catalytic domain for each enzyme (Invitrogen JAK1 #M4290, JAK2 #M4290, JAK3 #M4290, Tyk2 #M4290) in an HTRF format biochemical assay. The reactions employed a common peptide substrate, LCB-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLW-NH2 (in-house). The basic assay protocol is as follows: First, 250 nL of diluted compounds in DMSO were dispensed into the wells of a dry 384-well Black plate (Greiner #781076) using a Labcyte Echo 555 acoustic dispenser. Subsequent reagent additions employed an Agilent Bravo. Next, 18 μL of 1.11× enzyme and 1.11× substrate in 1× assay buffer (Invitrogen kinase buffer #PV3189, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% BSA) were added to the wells and shaken and then preincubated for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow compound binding to equilibrate. After equilibration, 2 μL of 10×ATP in 1× assay buffer was added to initiate the kinase reaction and the plates were shaken and then incubated at room temperature for 120 minutes. At the end of the incubation, 20 μL of 2× stop buffer (streptavidin-Dylight 650 (Thermo #84547B/100 mL), Eu-tagged pY20 antibody (Perkin Elmer #AD0067), EDTA, HEPES, and Triton) was added to quench the reaction. Plates were shaken and centrifuged and then incubated 60 minutes at room temperature and then read on a Perkin Elmer Envision (λex=337 nm, λem=665 and 615 nm, TRF delay time=20 μs). HTRF signal=10,000*665 nm reading/615 nm reading. After normalization to untreated controls, the percent inhibition of the HTRF signal at each compound concentration was calculated.

Assay: TYK2 JH2 Domain Binding Assay: DiscoverX's KINOMEscan™ is a popular platform for kinase profiling, frequently used in academic and industry witnessed by publications, therefore we selected this platform as a primary cell-free screening assay to determine the relative binding potency and guide chemistry SAR.Developed by DiscoverX, KINOMEscan™ employs proprietary active-site dependent competition binding assays to determine how compounds bind to kinases. KINOMEscan™ is based on a competition binding assay that quantitatively measures the ability of a compound to compete with an immobilized, active site directed ligand. The assay is performed by combining three components: DNA-tagged kinase; immobilized ligand; and a test compound. The ability of the test compound to compete with the immobilized ligand is measured via quantitative PCR of the DNA tag.Streptavidin-coated magnetic beads were treated with biotinylated small molecule ligands for 30 minutes at room temperature to generate affinity resins for kinase assays. The liganded beads were blocked with excess biotin and washed with blocking buffer (SeaBlock (Pierce), 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween 20, 1 mM DTT) to remove unbound ligand and to reduce non-specific binding. Binding reactions were assembled by combining TYK2 (JH2domain-pseudokinase), liganded affinity beads, and test compounds in 1× binding buffer (20% SeaBlock, 0.17×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 6 mM DTT). Test compounds were prepared as 111× stocks in 100% DMSO. All test compounds were shipped to DiscoverX in DMSO with concentration of 10 mM. Kds were determined using an 11-point 3-fold compound dilution series with three DMSO control points. Each compound was tested in duplicate. All compounds for Kd measurements are distributed by acoustic transfer (non-contact dispensing) in 100% DMSO. The compounds were then diluted directly into the assays such that the final concentration of DMSO was 0.9%. All reactions performed in polypropylene 384-well plate. Each was a final volume of 0.02 ml. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 1 hour and the affinity beads were washed with wash buffer (1×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20). The beads were then re-suspended in elution buffer (1×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 0.5 μM non-biotinylated affinity ligand) and incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30 minutes. The kinase concentration in the eluates was measured by qPCR.The amount of kinase measured by qPCR (Signal; y-axis) is plotted against the corresponding compound concentration in nM in log 10 scale (x-axis). Binding constants (Kds) were calculated with a standard dose-response curve using the Hill equation:Response = Background + Signal - Background 1 + ( Kd Hill ⁢ ⁢ Slope / Dose Hill ⁢ ⁢ Slope ) The Hill Slope was set to −1.

Assay: Menin Binding Affinity: A fluorescence polarization (FP) competitive binding assay was used to determine the binding affinities of representative menin inhibitors. A FAM labeled fluorescent probe was designed and synthesized based on a MLL1 peptide (FAM-MM2). Equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) value of FAM-MM2 to menin protein was determined from protein saturation experiments by monitoring the total fluorescence polarization of mixtures composed with the fluorescent probe at a fixed concentration and the protein with increasing concentrations up to full saturation. Serial dilutions of the protein were mixed with FAM-MM2 to a final volume of 200 μl in the assay buffer (PBS with 0.02% Bovine γ-Globulin and 4% DMSO. 0.01% Triton X-100 was added right before assays). Final FAM-MM2 concentration was 2 nM. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes with gentle shaking to assure equilibrium. FP values in millipolarization units (mP) were measured using the Infinite M-1000 plate reader (Tecan U.S., Research Triangle Park, N.C.) in Microfluor 1 96-well, black, v-bottom plates (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Mass.) at an excitation wavelength of 485 nm and an emission wavelength of 530 nm. Kd value of FAM-MM2, which was calculated by fitting the sigmoidal dose-dependent FP increases as a function of protein concentrations using Graphpad Prism 6.0 software (Graphpad Software, San Diego, Calif.), was determined as 1.4 nM.

Assay: Enzyme Assay: AXL enzyme inhibition (% inhibition, Kiapp and Ki values) by small molecule inhibitors was evaluated using a fluorescence-based microfluidic mobility shift assay. AXL catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the substrate peptide FL-Peptide-30 (5-FAM-KKKKEEIYFFF-CONH2, CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.). 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. Human wild-type receptor tyrosine kinase protein Axl comprising residues 505-811 was produced in-house using the baculoviral expression vector system that incorporated a hexahistidine affinity tag into the protein (LJIC-1916B1.1). The enzyme was preactivated by auto-phosphorylation of 34 uM non-activated enzyme in the presence of 2 mM ATP, 4 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl and 1 mM TCEP in 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.3 at 4° C. for 30 minutes. Typical reaction solutions (50 μL final reaction volume) contained 2% DMSO (±inhibitor), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 120 μM ATP (ATP Km=70.4 μM), 0.01% Tween-20, 3 μM FL-Peptide-30, and 0.5 nM phosphorylated AXL enzyme in 100 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.3. 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 30 minutes at 25° C. by the addition of 50 μL of 200 mM EDTA, pH 7.5. The Ki values were determined from the fit of the data to the Morrison tight-binding competitive inhibition equation with the enzyme concentration as a variable. (See, Morrison, J. F.

Assay: Calcium Influx Assay Based on Fluorescence: Ca2+ (calcium) influx assay is an experiment for measuring the activity of a positive allosteric modulator of mGluR5 receptor in which human mGluR5 receptor-overexpressed HEK293 cell line is used. The day before the experiment, cells were prepared in a cell culture medium (DMEM, 5% FBS) with the density of 80,000/well, and 100 μl of cells were dispensed into each well of a poly-D-lysine-coated 96-well plate. Cells were incubated in a 5% CO2, 37° C. incubator. The next day, the cell culture medium was removed from the plate, and 100 μl of 1× Fluo-4 calcium indicator diluted with a buffer (1× Hank's balanced salt solution, 20 mM HEPES, 2.5 mM probenecid) were added to each well and incubated at 37° C. for 1 hour. The compound stock solutions were prepared in 100% DMSO, and the compounds were serially diluted with a ¼ dilution to 6 or 7 concentrations (final concentration was 10 μM to 10 nM). The diluted compound solutions were added to the plate with 0.1 to 0.2% of final DMSO concentration. 1 hour after the addition of Fluo-4 calcium indicator, L-glutamate (EC20 concentration) and the test compound solutions were added to the plate, and Ca2+ reaction was then measured by FLIPR at room temperature. The activity of the compounds was standardized on the basis of the results of maximum value-minimum value of fluorescent reaction, and the activity value was calculated on the basis that no activity on glutamate EC20 is 0% and the reaction to glutamate maximum value is 100%.

Assay: FPR2 and FPR1 Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) Assays: A mixture of forskolin (5 μM final for FPR2 or 10 μM final for FPR1) and IBMX (200 μM final) were added to 384-well Proxiplates (Perkin-Elmer) pre-dotted with test compounds in DMSO (1% final) at final concentrations in the range of 1.7 nM to 100 μM. Chinese Hamster Ovary cells (CHO) overexpressing human FPR1 or human FPR2 receptors were cultured in F-12 (Ham's) medium supplemented with 10% qualified FBS, 250 μg/ml zeocin and 300 μg/ml hygromycin (Life Technologies). Reactions were initiated by adding 2,000 human FPR2 cells per well or 4,000 human FPR1 cells per well in Dulbecco's PBS (with calcium and magnesium) (Life Technologies) supplemented with 0.1% BSA (Perkin-Elmer). The reaction mixtures were incubated for 30 min at room temperature. The level of intracellular cAMP was determined using the HTRF HiRange cAMP assay reagent kit (Cisbio) according to manufacturer's instruction. Solutions of cryptate conjugated anti-cAMP and d2 flurorophore-labelled cAMP were made in a supplied lysis buffer separately. Upon completion of the reaction, the cells were lysed with equal volume of the d2-cAMP solution and anti-cAMP solution. After a 1-h room temperature incubation, time-resolved fluorescence intensity was measured using the Envision (Perkin-Elmer) at 400 nm excitation and dual emission at 590 nm and 665 nm. A calibration curve was constructed with an external cAMP standard at concentrations ranging from 1 μM to 0.1 pM by plotting the fluorescent intensity ratio from 665 nm emission to the intensity from the 590 nm emission against cAMP concentrations. The potency and activity of a compound to inhibit cAMP production was then determined by fitting to a 4-parametric logistic equation from a plot of cAMP level versus compound concentrations.

Assay: VEGFR2 Binding Assay: A competition binding assay (DISCOVERX KINOMESCAN) was used to measure the ability of a compound to compete for binding of an immobilized adenosine triphosphosphate (ATP) site directed ligand using a DNA-tagged vascular endothelial growth receptor 2 (VEGFR2) as the target. The ability of the test compound to compete with the immobilized ligand was measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) of the DNA tag (Fabian, M. A. et al., 23 Nature Biotechnology 329-336 (2005); Karaman, M. W. et al., 26 Nature Biotechnology 127-132 (2008)).A VEGFR2 tagged T7 phage strain was prepared in an Escherichia coli (E. coli) derived from the BL21 strain. The E. coli were grown to log-phase, infected with VEGFR2 tagged T7 phage and then incubated with shaking at 32° C. until lysis. The lysate containing the kinase was then centrifuged and filtered to remove cell debris. Affinity resin for the VEGFR2 assay was prepared by treating Streptavidin-coated magnetic beads with a biotinylated small molecule ligand for 30 minutes at room temperature. The beads were blocked with excess biotin and then washed with blocking buffer (SEABLOCK (PIERCE), 1% bovine serum albumin, 0.17% phosphate buffered saline, 0.05% TWEEN 20, 6 mM dithiothreitol). The binding reaction was initiated by combining in a well of a polystyrene 96-well plate, DNA tagged VEGFR2, liganded affinity beads and the serial diluted test compound in 1× binding buffer (20% SEABLOCK, 0.17× phosphate buffered saline, 0.05% TWEEN 20, 6 mM dithiothreitol) in a final volume of 0.135 ml. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 1 hour and then the beads were washed with wash buffer (1× phosphate buffered saline, 0.05% TWEEN 20). The beads were re-suspended in elution buffer (1× phosphate buffered saline, 0.05% TWEEN 20, 0.05 μM non-biotinylated affinity ligand) and incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30 minutes. The VEGFR2 concentration in the eluate was measured using qPCR.An 11-point dose response curve of 3-fold serial diluted test compound starting at 1 μM was used to determine the VEGFR2 binding constant (Kd). The compounds were prepared in 100% DMSO at 100× the final test concentration and the diluted to 1× in the assay for final DMSO concentration of 1%. Binding constants were calculated with standard dose-response curve using the Hill equation with Hill slope set to −1. Curves were fit using a non-linear least square fit with the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.

Assay: Biological Activity: Endothelial lipase (EL) and hepatic lipase (HL) activities were measured using a fluorescent substrate, A10070, (Invitrogen, CA) doped into an artificial vesicle containing DMPG (Avanti Polar Lipids) as the excipient. Vesicles were prepared by combining 571 μL of 29 mM DMPG in a 1:1 mixture of MeOH and CHCl3 with 2000 μL of 1 mM A10070 in a 1:1 mixture of MeOH and CHCl3. The mixture was dried under nitrogen in multiple vials then resuspended in 20 mL total volume of 50 mM HEPES pH 8.0 buffer containing 50 mM NaCl and 0.2 mM EDTA. The sample was allowed to sit at room temperature for 15 min and then was sonicated 3×4 mins on ice with a Branson Sonicator using duty cycle 1. This preparation provides vesicles with a mole fraction of 0.11 for the FRET substrate.The enzymatic assay was measured using 384-well white Optiplates. Each well contained 20 μL of assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 8.0, 50 mM NaCl and 1 mM CaCl2) and 0.25 μL of a DMSO solution containing a compound of interest. EL or HL (10 μL) was added and allowed to incubate with the compound for 30 min at 37° C. The source of EL was conditioned media obtained from HT-1080 cells that were transformed using RAGE technology (Athersys) to overexpress endogenous EL, and HL was partially purified from conditioned media obtained from COS cells overexpressing HL. The reaction was started by the addition of 10 μL of a 1:10 dilution of vesicles. The final total reaction volume was 20.25 μL. The reaction rates were measured on a Gemini plate reader with an excitation wavelength of 490 nm and an emission wavelength of 530 nm. Readings were taken over a period of 60 minutes, and the slope between 300 and 900 secs of the readout was used to calculate the rate of the reaction.
