Assay: Inhibitory Activity on Human ACC1 and the ACC2: Recombinant human ACC1 and recombinant human ACC2, which were prepared by the method mentioned above, were preincubated with assay buffer solution (50 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.4), 10 mM magnesium chloride, 6-10 mM potassium citrate, 4 mM reduced form of glutathione, 1.5 mg/ml bovine serum albumin) for one hour. Then, 0.2 μL of each this invention compound solution (in DMSO) were dispensed to 384-well microplate, 5 μL of the preincubated enzyme solution and 5 μL of substrate solution (50 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.4), 1 mM ATP, 0.8 mM acetyl CoA and 25-50 mM potassium bicarbonate) were added to microplate. After centrifugation and shaking, the reaction mixtures were incubated in a humidified box at room temperature for 1 to 3 hours. After the incubation, the enzyme reactions were stopped by the addition of EDTA. Then, after the samples were cocrystallized with CHCA (α-cyano-4-hydroxy cinnamic acid) matrices on MALDI target plate, by using the matrix assist laser deionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF MS), samples were measured in reflector negative mode. Deprotonated ions of acetyl CoA (AcCoA) of substrate and malonyl CoA (MalCoA) of the reaction product were detected, then, the conversion rates of acetyl CoA to malonyl CoA was calculated by the intensity of [MalCoA-H]−/(Intensity of [MalCoA-H]−+Intensity of [AcCoA-H]−) using each signal strength. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated from the inhibition rate of the enzymatic reaction at each concentration of the compounds. In addition, potassium citrate concentrations in assay buffer solution, potassium hydrogen carbonate concentrations in substrate solution and incubation time were adjusted by each lot of enzyme.

Assay: HER2 Degradation Assay with BT-474 Cell Line: HER2 has emerged as a key target for anticancer drugs due to its intrinsic involvement in the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-Akt/protein kinase B (PI3 K-Akt) and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, both of which suppress apoptosis and promote tumor cell survival, gene transcription, angiogenesis, cellular proliferation, migration, mitosis, and differentiation. The degradation of HER2 is a measure of efficacy of anticancer therapeutics that target Hsp90. Accordingly, the SDC-TRAP molecules of the invention that comprise a binding moiety that binds Hsp90 were tested in the following HER2 degradation assay.BT-474 cells (human breast cancer cell line ATCC HTB-20) were obtained from ATCC and seeded into 12-well tissue culture plates at 0.2x106/1.8 mL/well. The cells were incubated for more than 6 hours at 37° C. in DMEM+10% FBS, +1% P/S, +1.5 g/L sodium bicarbonate. Each test compound was titrated in 4-fold dilutions from 5 μM to 78 nM with DMSO and 200 μL of the titration was added to each well of the cell plate. The DMSO final concentration was 0.2%. Cells were incubated overnight at 37° C. in 5% CO2.Media was decanted from the plate, cells were washed 1x in PBS. 400 μL trypsin (EDTA) per well was added, and the cells were incubated for 2 to 3 minutes. Cells were collected into FACS tubes containing 1 ml culture medium to neutralize the trypsin and were centrifuged for 5 minutes at 1200 rpm. Supernatant was decanted and the cells were resuspended in 5 μL FITC (anti HER2/nu)/200 μL staining buffer (1×PBS+1% FBS+0.05% Sodium Azide)/tube. Controls were 5 μL IgG isotype control and staining buffer only. Tubes were incubated for 30 minutes in the dark at room temperature. 1 mL staining buffer was added to each tube and the tubes were centrifuged for 6 minutes at 1200 rpm. The supernatant was decanted and 300 μL staining buffer was added to each tube, which was stored at 4° C. for FACS (cytometer) analysis. The cytometer readout was normalized and the potency of each compound was evaluated with IC50 calculated with XLfit software.

Pfluegers Archives 391:85-100 (1981)) using the IonWorks Quattro automated electrophysiology platform (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.). Chinese hamster ovary cells stably expressing Kir1.1 channels were maintained in T-75 flasks in cell culture media in a humidified 10% CO2 incubator at 37° C. Prior to an experiment, Kir1.1 expression was induced by overnight incubation with 1 mM sodium butyrate. On the day of the experiment, cells were dissociated with 2.5 mL of Versene (Invitrogen 15040-066) for approximately 6 min at 37° C. and suspended in 10 mL of bath solution containing (in mM): 150 NaCl, 10 KCl, 2.7 CaCl2, 0.5 MgCl2, 5 HEPES, pH 7.4. After centrifugation, the cell pellet was resuspended in approximately 4.0 mL of bath solution and placed in the IonWorks instrument. The intracellular solution consisted of (in mM): 80 K gluconate, 40 KCl, 20 KF, 3.2 MgCl2, 3 EGTA, 5 Hepes, pH 7.4. Electrical access to the cytoplasm was achieved by perforation in 0.13 mg/mL amphotericin B for 4 min. Amphotericin B (Sigma A-4888) was prepared as a 40 mg/mL solution in DMSO. Voltage protocols and current recordings were performed using the IonWorks HT software/hardware system. Currents were sampled at 1 kHz. No correction for liquid junction potentials was used. The test pulse, consisting of a 100 ms step to 0 mV from a holding potential of −70 mV, followed by a 100 ms voltage ramp from −70 mV to +70 mV, was applied before and after a 6 min compound incubation period. Test compounds were prepared by diluting DMSO stock solutions into the bath solution at 3× the final concentration and placed in the instrument in 96-well polypropylene plates.

Assay: In Vitro Assay: Human orexin-A as an agonist is prepared as 1 mM stock solution in MeOH: water (1:1), diluted in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L and 20 mM HEPES for use in the assay at a final concentration of 3 nM.Antagonists are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates using DMSO followed by a transfer of the dilutions into in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L and 20 mM HEPES. On the day of the assay, 50 uL of staining buffer (HBSS containing 1% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L, 5 mM probenecid (Sigma) and 3 uM of the fluorescent calcium indicator fluo-4 AM (1 mM stock solution in DMSO, containing 10% pluronic) is added to each well. The 384-well cell-plates are incubated for 50 min at 37° C. in 5% CO2 followed by equilibration at rt for 30 min before measurement.Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR Tetra, Molecular Devices), antagonists are added to the plate in a volume of 10 uL/well, incubated for 120 min and finally 10 uL/well of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals, and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 3 nM orexin-A with vehicle in place of antagonist. The IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonistic response) is determined and may be normalized using the obtained IC50 value of an on-plate reference compound. Optimized conditions were achieved by adjustment of pipetting speed and cell splitting regime. The calculated IC50 values may fluctuate depending on the daily cellular assay performance. Fluctuations of this kind are known to those skilled in the art. In the case where IC50 values have been determined several times for the same compound, the geometric mean has been given.

Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assay: 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: Factor XIIa (FXIIa) Inhibitory Activity: In a 96-well clear bottom plate, 80 μl of assay buffer was added to each well. Assay buffer consists of 0.5× Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (Invitrogen), buffered with 25 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Invitrogen) and 0.5× Tris-buffered saline with Tween-20 0.05% (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Test compounds were first dissolved in DMSO (Sigma) and then 4 μl were added to test wells containing assay buffer. Serial dilutions using an automated multi-channel pipette were used to generate a concentration range of approximately 1-100 μM. Human FXIIa (Enzyme Research Labs) was diluted in assay buffer to a final concentration of 12.5 nM. 80 μl of this enzyme solution was added to the assay wells. The enzyme/compound mixtures were incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature. Chromogenic substrate (Pefachrome XIIa; Enzyme Research Labs) was added to assay wells at a final concentration of 400 μM. The assay plate was spun for 1 minute at 1500 g and then read at 37° C. in a SpectraMax M2 plate reader (λ=405 nm). Activity was quantified as the rate of change in absorbance, which corresponds to the rate of substrate cleavage. IC50 values were determined as the concentration of inhibitor that produced 50% of the rate of change of control wells without any inhibitor. For compounds with activity <1 μM, the assay was repeated with a lower concentration range, typically from 10-1000 nM.

Assay: HPK1 Biochemical Enzyme Assay: HPK1 enzyme inhibition was measured using a microfluidic mobility shift assay (MSA). The reactions were conducted in 50 μL volumes in 96-well plates, and contained 0.5 nM human full-length recombinant HPK1, 3 μM phosphoacceptor peptide, 5FAM-AKRRRLSSLRA-COOH (CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.), test compound (11-dose 3-fold serial dilutions, 2% DMSO final) or DMSO only, 0.002% Tween-20, 1 mM DTT and 2.5 mM MgCl2 in 50 mM MOPS (3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid), pH 7.8, buffer and were initiated by addition of 75 μM ATP, following a 20-min preincubation. The reactions were conducted for 60 min at 37° C., stopped by the addition of 50 μL of 0.015 M EDTA, pH 8, and the extent of reactions (15-20% conversion with no inhibitor) was determined after electrophoretic separation of the fluorescently labeled peptide substrate and phosphorylated product on an LabChip EZ Reader II (PerkinElmer, Inc., Waltham, Mass.).Inhibition of HPK1 was also measured using the fluorescence based chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) method (1), using a proprietary fluorescent peptide substrate, in which a cysteine residue is alkylated with a sulfonamido-oxine based derivative to afford an amino acid termed C-Sox (CSx). The assay was conducted similarly as described for the MSA method above, but using 3 μM Ac-[CSx]HSLPRFNR-amide peptide substrate (also known as AQT0178 when purchased from AssayQuant Technologies Inc., Hopkinton, Mass.) and 45 μM ATP. Initial reaction velocities were determined by following the peptide fluorescence (λex=360 nm, λem=500 nm) at 30° C. for 15 min in a Tecan M1000 plate reader (Tecan Group Ltd., Männedorf, Zürich, Switzerland). The inhibition constant (Ki) values were calculated by fitting the % conversion based (MSA method) or fluorescence based initial velocities (CHEF method) to the Morrison equation (2) for tight-binding competitive inhibition using non-linear regression method and an experimentally measured ATP Km (29 μM by MSA and 19 μM by CHEF, respectively). The inhibitors were shown to be ATP-competitive from kinetic and crystallographic studies. HPK1 protein was produced in-house and preactivated by autophosphorylation of enzyme with MgATP as described in the section Production of recombinant autophosphorylated full-length HPK1.

Assay: Cell-Based Assay of NHE-3 Activity (Pre-Incubation Inhibition): Rat and human NHE-3-mediated Na+-dependent H+ antiport was measured using a modification of the pH sensitive dye method originally reported by Paradiso (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. (1984) 81(23): 7436-7440). PS120 fibroblasts stably expressing human NHE3 and NHERF2 were obtained from Mark Donowitz (Baltimore, Md.). Opossum kidney (OK) cells were obtained from the ATCC and propagated per their instructions. The rat NHE-3 gene (GenBank M85300) was introduced into OK cells via electroporation, and cells were seeded into 96 well plates and grown overnight. Medium was aspirated from the wells then incubated for 30 min at 37° C. with NH4Cl-HEPES buffer (20 mM NH4Cl, 80 mM NaCl, 50 mM HEPES, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, pH 7.4) containing 5 μM BCECF-AM. Cells were washed once with Ammonium free, Na+-free HEPES (100 mM choline, 50 mM HEPES, 10 mM glucose, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, pH 7.4) and incubated in the same buffer for 10 minutes at room temperature to lower intracellular pH with 0-30 μM test compound. After incubation, NHE-3-mediated recovery of neutral intracellular pH was initiated by addition of Na-HEPES buffer containing 0.4 μM ethyl isopropyl amiloride (EIPA, a selective antagonist of NHE-1 activity that does not inhibit NHE-3). Changes in intracellular pH were monitored using a FLIPR Tetra® (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.) by excitation at λex 439 to 505 nm, and measuring BCECF fluorescence at λem 538 nm. The initial rate of the fluorescence ratio change was used as a measure of NHE-mediated Na+/H+ activity, and reported as the change in fluorescence ratio per minute. Initial rates were plotted as the average of 2 or more replicates, and pIC50 values were estimated using GraphPad Prism.

Target: Nuclear receptor ROR-gamma (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biological Assays: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., biochemical TR-FRET assay. In such an assay, interaction of cofactor-derived peptides with human RORgammaT-Ligand Binding Domain (LBD) can be measured. The TR-FRET technique is a sensitive biochemical proximity assay that will give information concerning the interaction of a ligand with the LBD, in the presence of cofactor-derived peptides (Zhou et al., Methods 25:54-61, 2001).To identify novel antagonists of RORgammaT, an assay was developed which employs the interaction of RORgammaT with its co-activator peptide SRC1_2. This peptide mimics the recruitment of co-activators to RORgammaT through its interaction with the LXXLL (SEQ ID NO:1) (e.g., NR box) motifs (Xie et al., J. Immunol. 175: 3800-09, 2005; Kurebayashi et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 315: 919-27, 2004; Jin et al., Mol. Endocrinology 24:923-29, 2010). The RORγ-Ligand Binding Domain TR-FRET Assay was run according to the following protocol.HIS-tagged RORγ-LBD protein was expressed in SF9 cells using a baculovirus expression system. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by glutathione sepharose chromatography. Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed and the lysate was added to the purified RORγ-LBD at 0.25 μl lysate (from 10,000 SF9 cells)/nM purified protein. The mixture was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT) to obtain RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM in 384-well assay plate.Compounds to be tested were injected to the assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, Calif.).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-CPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSPS) (SEQ ID NO:2) was prepared in assay buffer and added to each well (100 nM final concentration). A solution of Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody (1.25 nM final concentration) and APC conjugated streptavidin (8 nM final concentration) were also added to each well.The final assay mixture was incubated overnight at 4° C., and the fluorescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader: (Excitation filter=340 nm; APC emission=665 nm; Europium emission=615 nm; dichroic mirror=D400/D630; delay time=100 μs, integration time=200 μs). IC50 values for test compounds were calculated from the quotient of the fluorescence signal at 665 nm divided by the fluorescence signal at 615 nm.

UniProt: Q05586
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.
