Assay: Intracellular Calcium Measurement to Assess Antagonist Activity : A fluorescent imaging plate reader (FLEX/FLIPR station; Molecular Devices) was used to monitor intracellular calcium levels using the calcium-chelating dye Fluo-4 (Molecular Probes). The excitation and emission wavelengths used to monitor fluorescence were 470-495 nm and 515-575 nm, respectively. Cells expressing purinergic receptors P2X3 (human) or P2X2/3 (human) were plated at a density of 15,000 cells/well in collagen-coated 384-well plates approximately 20 hours before beginning the assay. On the day of the assay, 20 μl of loading buffer (Hank's balanced salt solution, 20 mM HEPES, 0.5 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1% BSA, 5 mM probenecid, 10 mM D-glucose monohydrate, 2 μM Fluo-4, and 5 units/mL, hexokinase, pH=7.4) was added and cells dye-loaded for 90 min at 37° C. The dye supernatant was removed and replaced with 45 μl probenecid buffer (Hank's balanced salt solution, 20 mM HEPES, 0.5 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1% BSA, 5 mM probenecid, 10 mM D-glucose monohydrate, pH=7.4). The test compound was added in a volume of 5 μl and allowed to incubate for 30 min at 37° C. The final assay DMSO concentration is 1%.The agonist, α,β-Me-ATP, was added in a volume of 20 μl at a concentration representing the EC80 value. The fluorescence was measured for an interval of 90 sec at 2 sec intervals and analyzed based on the increase in peak relative fluorescence units (RFU) compared to the basal fluorescence. Peak fluorescence was used to determine the response to agonist obtained at each concentration of test compound by the following equation: % Response=100*(RFU(test compound)−RFU(control))/(RFU(DMSO)−RFU(control)).

Target: Glutamate NMDA receptor; GRIN1/GRIN2B (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13224
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. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Assay: CDK2/CyclinA2 Enzymatic Activity Assay: The inhibitory activity of compounds was evaluated in vitro using TR-FRET assay with white 384-well low volume microplate (Greiner Bio-One). CDK2/Cyclin A2 catalyzed phosphorylation of peptide in the presence and absence of compounds was measured and used in IC50 determination. Recombinant protein complex CDK2/Cyclin A2, expressed from insect cell, was purchased from ProQinase. Testing compounds were dissolved in DMSO at 1 mM and tested in 9-dose IC50 mode. The reaction mixture was prepared by mixing CDK2/CyclinA2 (1 nM final), ULight-4E-BP1 (50 nM final, Perkinelmer, TRF0128-D), and ATP (1 mM final) in assay buffer (20 mM of HEPES pH 7.4, 1 mM of EGTA, 0.05% BSA, 0.005% Tween 20, and 1 mM TCEP). The compound of interest in DMSO was added to each well in 3-fold serial dilution by dispenser (TECAN D300E) to make a 9.9 μL of reaction mixture. After 20 minutes preincubation at room temperature, 0.1 μL MgCl2(10 mM final) was added to initiate the reaction. Following a 45 minutes incubation at 37° C., the reaction was stopped by addition of 2 μL of quenching buffer consisting of Lance detection buffer (Perkinelmer CR97-100C), LANCE Ultra Europium-anti-P-4E-BP1 (Perkinelmer, TRF0216-D), EDTA, and incubate at room temperature for additional 60 minutes in dark.

UniProt: P24941
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: Catenin beta-1/Protein Wnt-3a (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P35222
Assay: Evaluation of Biological Activity: Compounds that enhance the Wnt activity, or Activators, were assayed as follows. Reporter cell lines were generated by stably transducing cells of colon cancer cell lines (with a lentiviral construct that included a Wnt-responsive promoter driving expression of the firefly luciferase gene).Lentiviral constructs were made in which the SP5 promoter, a promoter having eight TCF/LEF binding sites derived from the SP5 promoter, was linked upstream of the firefly luciferase gene. The lentiviral constructs also included a hygromycin resistance gene as a selectable marker. The SP5 promoter construct was used to transduce SW480 cells, a colon cancer cell line having a mutated APC gene that generates a truncated APC protein, leading to de-regulated accumulation of β-catenin.Cultured SW480 cells bearing a reporter construct were distributed at approximately 10,000 cells per well into 384- or 96-well multiwell plates. Compounds from a small molecule compound library were then added to the wells in half-log dilutions using a maximum concentration of three or ten micromolar. A series of control wells for each cell type received only buffer and compound solvent DMSO. Twenty-four hours after the addition of compound, reporter activity for luciferase was assayed, for example, by addition of the BrightGlo luminescence reagent (Promega) and the Victor3 plate reader (Perkin Elmer). Readings were normalized to DMSO only treated cells, and any activities above DMSO were considered activation. Compounds were considered activators if reporter activities were 2× fold or greater than DMSO. EC50 is the concentration at half maximal activation.

Assay: Biochemical Assay for CDK7: The ability of compounds to inhibit CDK7 kinase activity was tested in a TR-FRET assay using 5 nM of CDK7/CycH/MNAT1 obtained from Invitrogen, USA. Test compounds were pre-incubated with the kinase at room temperature for 60 min. After incubation, substrate mix [100 nM Ultra-light MBP (Perkin Elmer, USA) and 1 mM ATP (Sigma)] was added. The above reaction was stopped by the addition of 40 mM EDTA after 60 minutes of kinase reaction. 1 nM Eu-labelled antiphospho-MBP antibody [Perkin Elmer, USA] was added, mixed well and the fluorescence emission at 615 nm and 665 nm [excitation at 340 nm] was measured. The final DMSO concentration in the assay was 1%. For IC50 determination, appropriate concentrations were made by ⅓rd serial dilutions of 10 mM DMSO stock solution of test compound. All the fluorescence measurements were made in a Victor 3 Multilabel Counter [Perkin Elmer, USA]. The IC50 was determined by fitting the dose response data to sigmoidal curve fitting equation using GraphPad Prism software V5. To identify compounds that inhibit CDK7 irreversibly, time depended inhibition studies were carried by pre-incubating compound with the enzyme at three time points (20, 60 and 180 min) and carrying out assay as described above.

Assay: Binding Assay: The biochemical potency of compounds was determined using a proximity-based assay (ALPHASCREEN®, Perkin Elmer, Waltham, Mass.) as described previously (Ullman E F et al., Luminescent oxygen channeling immunoassay: Measurement of particle binding kinetics by chemiluminescence. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, Vol. 91, pp. 5426-5430, June 1994). To gauge the potency of inhibitors of binding to human integrin αvβ6, inhibitor compounds and integrin were incubated together with TGF-b1 LAP and biotinylated anti-LAP antibody plus acceptor and donor beads, following the manufacture's recommendations. The donor beads were coated with streptavidin. The acceptor beads had a nitrilotriacetic acid Ni chelator, for binding to a 6×His Tag on human integrin αvβ6. All incubations occurred at room temperatures in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.1% BSA supplemented with 1 mM each CaCl2 and MgCl2.The order of reagent addition was as follows:1. Alpha-v-beta-6 integrin, test inhibitor compound, LAP, biotinylated anti-LAP antibody and acceptor beads were all added together.2. After 2 hours, donor beads were added. After another 30 minute incubation, samples were then read.Integrin binding was evaluated by exciting donor beads at 680 nm, and measuring the fluorescent signal produced, between 520-620 nm, using a Biotek Instruments (Winooski, Vt., USA) SynergyNeo2 multimode plate reader.

UniProt: P35222
Assay: Evaluation of Biological Activity: Compounds that enhance the Wnt activity, or Activators, were assayed as follows. Reporter cell lines were generated by stably transducing cells of colon cancer cell lines (with a lentiviral construct that included a Wnt-responsive promoter driving expression of the firefly luciferase gene).Lentiviral constructs were made in which the SP5 promoter, a promoter having eight TCF/LEF binding sites derived from the SP5 promoter, was linked upstream of the firefly luciferase gene. The lentiviral constructs also included a hygromycin resistance gene as a selectable marker. The SP5 promoter construct was used to transduce SW480 cells, a colon cancer cell line having a mutated APC gene that generates a truncated APC protein, leading to de-regulated accumulation of β-catenin.Cultured SW480 cells bearing a reporter construct were distributed at approximately 10,000 cells per well into 384- or 96-well multiwell plates. Compounds from a small molecule compound library were then added to the wells in half-log dilutions using a maximum concentration of three or ten micromolar. A series of control wells for each cell type received only buffer and compound solvent DMSO. Twenty-four hours after the addition of compound, reporter activity for luciferase was assayed, for example, by addition of the BrightGlo luminescence reagent (Promega) and the Victor3 plate reader (Perkin Elmer). Readings were normalized to DMSO only treated cells, and any activities above DMSO were considered activation. Compounds were considered activators if reporter activities were 2× fold or greater than DMSO. EC50 is the concentration at half maximal activation.

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.

Assay: NMDA receptor FLIPR assay: 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 149 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, and 1.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4.

Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to EC80 (standard assay) or EC40 (HTS assay) is used to maximize the assay's signal window or the ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators, respectively. 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. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

All the fluorescence measurements were made in a Victor 3 Multilabel Counter [Perkin Elmer, USA]. The IC50 was determined by fitting the dose response data to sigmoidal curve fitting equation using GraphPad Prism software V5. To identify compounds that inhibit CDK7 irreversibly, time depended inhibition studies were carried by pre-incubating compound with the enzyme at three time points (20, 60 and 180 min) and carrying out assay as described above.
