Assay: Enzymatic Assay: Each test compound (10 mM stock in DMSO) is diluted in DMSO to make a 10-point, 3-fold dilution series. 125 nL of each dilution or DMSO alone is dispensed to a 384-well Greiner Lumitrac 200 assay plate using an Echo® Liquid Handler. To each well of the plate is added 20 uL of enzyme in assay buffer or assay buffer alone. Assay buffer consists of 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0, 50 mM magnesium chloride, 50 mM sodium chloride, and 0.01% (w/v) bovine serum albumin. When present, the R132H mutant IDH1 enzyme is at a working concentration of 1.875 nM (final concentration in assay of 1.5 nM). The assay plate is allowed to incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature and 5 uL of 5× substrate mixture (2.5 uM nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 100 uM adenosine diphosphate, 7.5 mM glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, 7.5 ug/mL of spinach glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, 25 nM phosphoglycerate kinase, and 5 mM alpha-ketoglutarate in assay buffer) is added to all wells. The reaction plate is incubated for 60 minutes followed by addition of 25 uL of Promega Kinase-GLO reagent to all wells and 10-minute incubation.Luminescence is measured using a PerkinElmer Envision plate reader. The percent activity of each dilution is determined as the ratio of background corrected signal to the background corrected signal of wells receiving only DMSO. IC50 values are determined by fitting percent activity data to a four-parameter logistic dose response equation.

Assay: Syk Kinase Assay: Recombinant human Syk (amino acids 342-635) was expressed as a fusion protein with an N-terminal GST tag, affinity-purified and deep-frozen at a concentration of approx. 50-100 μM in storage buffer (25 mM HEPES pH7.5; 25 mM MgCl2; 5 mM MnCl2; 50 mM KCl; 0.2% BSA; 0.01% CHAPS; 100 μM Na3VO4; 0.5 mM DTT, 10% glycerol) at −80° C. until use.The catalytic activity of the GST-Syk kinase fusion protein was determined using the Kinase Glo® Luminescence Kinase test (Promega; V6712). In this homogeneous test the amount of ATP remaining after the kinase reaction is quantified by a luciferin-luciferase reaction using luminescence. The luminescence signal obtained correlates with the amount of ATP still present and thus correlates inversely with the activity of the kinase.

Assay: FGFR Enzymatic Assay: The inhibitor potency of the exemplified compounds was measured in an enzyme assay that measures peptide phosphorylation using FRET measurements to detect product formation. Inhibitors were serially diluted in DMSO and a volume of 0.5 μL was transferred to the wells of a 384-well plate. For FGFR3, a 10 μL volume of FGFR3 enzyme (Millipore) diluted in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% Tween-20, 5 mM DTT, pH 7.5) was added to the plate and pre-incubated for 5-10 minutes. Appropriate controls (enzyme blank and enzyme with no inhibitor) were included on the plate. The assay was initiated by the addition of a 10 μL solution containing biotinylated EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE peptide substrate (SEQ ID NO: 1) and ATP (final concentrations of 500 nM and 140 μM respectively) in assay buffer to the wells. The plate was incubated at 25° C. for 1 hr. The reactions were ended with the addition of 10 μL/well of quench solution (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mg/mL BSA, pH 7.8; 30 mM EDTA with Perkin Elmer Lance Reagents at 3.75 nM Eu-antibody PY20 and 180 nM APC-Streptavidin). The plate was allowed to equilibrate for ¿1 hr before scanning the wells on a PheraStar plate reader (BMG Labtech).FGFR1 and FGFR2 were measured under equivalent conditions with the following changes in enzyme and ATP concentrations: FGFR1, 0.02 nM and 210 μM, respectively and FGFR2, 0.01 nM and 100 μM, respectively. The enzymes were purchased from Millipore or Invitrogen.GraphPad prism3 was used to analyze the data. The IC50 values were derived by fitting the data to the equation for a sigmoidal dose-response with a variable slope. Y=Bottom+(Top−Bottom)/(1+10^((Log IC50−X)*HillSlope)) where X is the logarithm of concentration and Y is the response. Compounds having an IC50 of 1 μM or less are considered active.The compounds of the invention were found to be inhibitors of one or more of FGFR1, FGFR2, and FGFR3 according to the above-described assay.

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.).

Assay: HTRF-Based Assay : V79 cell lines stably expressing the either the human CYP11B2 or the human CYP11B1 enzyme were generated using a standard transfection protocol. V79 cells were transfected with plasmids pTriEx3-Hygro-hCyp11B2 or pTriEx3-Hygro-hCyp11B1 using Lipofectamine2000 reagent. V79 cells that stably express the human CYP11B2 or human CYP11B1 enzyme were selected for and maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 400 μg/mL hygromycin for 2 weeks. Single cell clones were generated by infinite dilution in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 400 μg/mL hygromycin until single colonies were obtained. Clones V79-hCYP11B2-CLE9 and V79-hCYP11B1-CL8C7, were determined to produce the most aldosterone and cortisol, respectively, and were selected for inhibitor screening. For testing of inhibitors, cells were harvested at 80% confluency with 0.05% Trypsan-EDTA, washed once in PBS, and reconstituted in DMEM+0.1% BSA media at a cell concentration of 600,000 cells/mL for the CYP11B2 assay and 280,000 cells/mL for the CYP11B1 assay. 25 μL of cells were added to a 384 well tissue culture treated plate and mixed with 0.3 μL of inhibitor or DMSO (1% final DMSO concentration) for 1 hour at 37° C., 5% CO2. After pre-incubation with inhibitor, the reaction was initiated by adding 5 μL of substrate (final concentration of 125 nM 11-deoxycorticosterone for the CYP11B2 assay or 250 nM 11-deoxycortisol for the CYP11B1 assay). The reaction was carried out for 3 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2 and was stopped by harvesting the supernatants. The amount of product in the supernatant (aldosterone for CYP11B2 assay and cortisol for the CYP11B1 assay) was measured using HTRF-based assay kit (Aldosterone HTRF-CisBio#64ALDPEB, Cortisol HTRF-CisBio #63IDC002-CORT).

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).

Assay: Prolabel Quantification of IKZF1, IKZF2, or GSPT1 Protein Levels in 293GT Cells: The Prolabel system from DiscoverX was used to develop high-throughput and quantitative assays to measure changes in IKZF1, IKZF2, and GSPT1 protein levels in response to compounds. The prolabel tag is derived from the alpha fragment of beta galactosidase and has the following protein sequence: mssnslavvlqrrdwenpgvtqlnrlaahppfaswrnseeartdrpsqqlrslnge. The complementary fragment of beta-galactosidase (from DiscoverX), is added to the prolabel tag to form an active beta galactosidase enzyme whose activity can be precisely measured. In this way, the levels of a fusion protein with the prolabel tag can be quantified in cell lysates.Lentiviral vectors, based on the Invitrogen pLenti6.2/V5 DEST backbone, were constructed that placed the prolabel tag upstream of IKZF1, IKZF2, or GSPT1 and expressed the fusion protein from a CMV promoter.To ensure moderate and consistent expression of the prolabel fusion proteins across all cells in the population, stable cell lines were constructed from cells expressing a single copy of the construct. Lentivirus packaged with the constructs was made using the Virapower kit from Invitrogen. Strongly adherent 293GT cell, GripTite 293 MSR cells from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Catalog number: R79507), were infected with the virus at low multiplicity of infection and selected by 5 μg/mL blasticidin for 2 weeks.

Assay: BACE1 HTRF FRET Assay: A homogeneous time-resolved FRET assay can be used to determine IC50 values for inhibitors of the soluble human BACE1 catalytic domain. This assay monitors the increase of 620 nm fluorescence that resulted from BACE1 cleavage of an APPswedish APPswe mutant peptide FRET substrate (QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Europium-amide). This substrate contains an N-terminal QSY7 moiety that serves as a quencher of the C-terminal Europium fluorophore (620 nm Em). In the absence of enzyme activity, 620 nm fluorescence is low in the assay and increased linearly over 3 hours in the presence of uninhibited BACE1 enzyme. Inhibition of BACE1 cleavage of the QSY7-APPswe-Eu substrate by inhibitors is manifested as a suppression of 620 nm fluorescence.Varying concentrations of inhibitors at 3Ã¿ the final desired concentration in a volume of 10 ul are preincubated with purified human BACE1 catalytic domain (3 nM in 10 ul) for 30 minutes at 30° C. in reaction buffer containing 20 mM Na-Acetate pH 5.0, 10% glycerol, 0.1% Brij-35 and 7.5% DSMO. Reactions are initiated by addition of 10 ul of 600 nM QSY7-APPswe-Eu substrate (200 nM final) to give a final reaction volume of 30 ul in a 384 well Nunc HTRF plate. The reactions are incubated at 30° C. for 1.5 hours. The 620 nm fluorescence is then read on a Rubystar HTRF plate reader (BMG Labtechnologies) using a 50 millisecond delay followed by a 400 millisecond acquisition time window. Inhibitor IC50 values are derived from non-linear regression analysis of concentration response curves. Ki values are then calculated from IC50 values using the Cheng-Prusoff equation using a previously determined um value of 8 uM for the QSY7-APPswe-Eu substrate at BACE1. The compounds of Examples 1, 2, and 3 were measured in this assay and each exhibited a Ki value of less than about 5 nM.

Assay: SHP2 Allosteric Inhibition Assay: SHP2 is allosterically activated through binding of bis-tyrosyl-phorphorylated peptides to its Src Homology 2 (SH2) domains. The latter activation step leads to the release of the auto-inhibitory interface of SHP2, which in turn renders the SHP2 protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) active and available for substrate recognition and reaction catalysis. The catalytic activity of SHP2 was monitored using the surrogate substrate DiFMUP in a prompt fluorescence assay format.More specifically, the phosphatase reactions were performed at room temperature in 384-well black polystyrene plate, flat bottom, low flange, non-binding surface (Corning, Cat#3575) using a final reaction volume of 25 μL and the following assay buffer conditions: 60 mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 75 mM NaCl, 75 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.05% P-20, 5 mM DTT.The inhibition of SHP2 by compounds of the invention (concentrations varying from 0.003-100 μM) was monitored using an assay in which 0.5 nM of SHP2 was incubated with of 0.5 μM of peptide IRS1_pY1172(dPEG8)pY1222 (sequence: H2N-LN(pY)IDLDLV(dPEG8)LST(pY)ASINFQK-amide) (SEQ ID NO:1). After 30-60 minutes incubation at 25° C., the surrogate substrate DiFMUP (Invitrogen, cat# D6567) was added to the reaction and incubated at 25° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of 5 μl of a 160 μM solution of bpV(Phen) (Enzo Life Sciences cat# ALX-270-204). The fluorescence signal was monitored using a microplate reader (Envision, Perki-Elmer) using excitation and emission wavelengths of 340 nm and 450 nm, respectively. The inhibitor dose response curves were analyzed using normalized IC50 regression curve fitting with control based normalization.

Assay: EGLN-1 Activity Assay : The EGLN-1 (or EGLN-3) enzyme activity is determined using mass spectrometry (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization, time-of-flight MS, MALDI-TOF MS for assay details, see reference (Greis et al., 2006). Recombinant human EGLN-1-179/426 is prepared as described above and in the Supplemental Data. Full-length recombinant human EGLN-3 is prepared in a similar way, however it is necessary to use the His-MBP-TVMV EGLN-3 fusion for the assay due to the instability of the cleaved protein. For both enzymes, the HIF-1C. peptide corresponding to residues 556-574 (DLDLEALAPYIPAD DDFQL) is used as substrate. The reaction is conducted in a total volume of 50 uL containing TrisCl (5 mM, pH 7.5), ascorbate (120 uM), 2-oxoglutarate (3.2 uM), HIF-1C. (8.6 uM), and bovine serum albumin (0.01%). The enzyme, quantity predetermined to hydroxylate 20% of substrate in 20 minutes, is added to start the reaction. Where inhibitors are used, compounds are prepared in dimethyl Sulfoxide at 10-fold final assay concentration. After 20 minutes at room temperature, the reaction is stopped by transferring 10 LIL of reaction mixture to 50 LL of a mass spectrometry matrix Solution (C-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, 5 mg/mL in 50% acetonitrile/0.1% TFA, 5 mM NHPO). Two micro liters of the mixture is spotted onto a MALDI-TOF MS target plate for analysis with an Applied Biosystems (Foster City, Calif.) 4700 Proteomics Analyzer MALDI-TOF MS equipped with a Nd:YAG laser (355 nm, 3 ns pulse width, 200 HZ repetition rate). Hydroxylated peptide product is identified from substrate by the gain of 16 Da. Data defined as percent conversion of Substrate to product is analyzed in GraphPad Prism 4 to calculate ICso values.

Assay: Biochemical TR-FRET assay: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., a 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 recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by Ni2+-affinity resin. Purified protein was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT, 100 μg/mL bovine serum albumin, delipidated) to obtain a RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM. Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody was also added to this solution (1.25 nM). Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed (32,000 cells per μl in 25 mM Tris, 50 mM NaCl) and the previously frozen lysate was added to the diluted RORγ-LBD solution at a ratio of 0.75 μl SF9 lysate per 15 μl of diluted RORγ-LBD.

Assay: Cytokine Assays: Cytokine inhibitory activity is determined by measuring the effect of test agent on the release of the cytokines IL-4, IL-13 and IFNγ from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated with the T-cell mitogen phytohemagglutinin-L (PHA-L). At the time of assay, human PBMCs (Astarte Biologics) are removed from cryopreservation, thawed quickly at 37° C., diluted in assay medium (RPMI-Gibco 1640 medium, 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum (HIFBS), 2 mM glutamine and 10 mM HEPES pH 7.4) and then centrifuged at 250×g for 5 minutes. The resulting cell pellet is re-suspended in assay medium to a concentration of approximately 5×106 cells/mL and 50 μL of this cell suspension (approximately 250,000 cells) is added to each well of a 384-well cell culture microtiter plate (Perkin Elmer). Varying concentrations of test compound are then diluted in assay medium and added to the assay plate wells in a volume of 25 μL. After −10 minutes at room temperature (21° C.) the cells are stimulated by the addition of 25 μL of PHA-L (14 μg/mL; Millipore) and the assay plate is placed in an incubator at 37° C. in a humidified environment in 5% carbon dioxide. The final assay conditions are approximately 250,000 human PBMCs per well in assay medium containing 3.5 μg/mL PHA-L and the indicated final concentration of test compound (approximately 10 μM to 9.5 μM by 4-fold dilution). The final concentration of DMSO in the assay is approximately 0.25%. After 48 hours, the assay plate is removed from the incubator and centrifuged at 250×g for 5 minutes. A portion of the resulting cell supernatant is then used to determine the amount of IL-4, IL-13 and IFNγ in each well. Cytokine measurements are made using human IL-4, IL-13 or IFNγ HTRF assay kits (CisBio) following the manufacturer's assay protocol. The concentrations and resulting effect values for tested compounds are plotted and the concentration of compound required for 50% effect (IC50) is determined with a four-parameter logistic dose response equation (E-WorkBook, ID Business Solutions Ltd.).

Assay: PDK1 kinase assay: PDK1 (amino acids 51-359) and AKT2 (amino acids 140-467 fused to PIFtide, amino acids EEQEMFRDFDYIADW) were expressed as N-terminally tagged GST fusion proteins in insect cells and purified to homogeneity. Enzyme activity was determined in a coupled PDK1/AKT/FAM-crosstide assay and phosphorylation of FAM-crosstide was determined by standard IMAP protocol (Molecular Devices). For inhibition studies, compounds were titrated 4-fold in DMSO and diluted 40-fold into assay buffer (10 mM Tris HCl pH7.2; 10 mM MgCl2; 0.01% Triton X-100; 1 mM DTT) containing PDK1, AKT2, and FAM-crosstide (final concentrations: 0.75 nM PDK1, 10 nM unphosphorylated AKT2, and 100 nM crosstide substrate). The kinase reaction was initiated by adding ATP to a final concentration of 40 μM of PDK1 and incubated at 25° C. for 30 min. To detect assay product, the kinase reaction was combined with Progressive Binding Solution (1:600 Progressive Binding Reagent, 50% Buffer A, 50% Buffer B, Molecular Devices) in a 1:3 ratio. The mixture was incubated for 2 hours at 25° C. and the plate was scanned on an Analyst AD with excitation at 485 nm and emission at 530 nm. The fluorescence polarization value P is defined by the equation below. The value mP is generated by multiplying the P value for each reaction well by a factor of 1000. The value ΔmP for each well is the mP value for that well minus the mP value for the average negative control. P=(Fpar−Fperp)/(Fpar+Fperp)  Eq.:Where par is fluorescence intensity parallel to the excitation plane; and perp is fluorescence intensity perpendicular to the excitation plane. ΔmP values were plotted as a function of compound concentration and the data were analyzed with a 4-parameter fit using GraphPad Prism software.
