Assay: Protease Fluorescence Assay (FRET): Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 3CL-protease was expressed and purified. TAMIRA-SITSAVLQSGFRKMK-Dabcyl-OH peptide 3CLpro substrate was synthesized. Black, low volume, round-bottom, 384 well microplates were used. In a typical assay, 0.85 μL of test compound was dissolved in DMSO then incubated with SARS-CoV-2 3CL-protease (10 nM) in 10 μL assay buffer (50 mM HEPES [pH 7.5], 1 mM DTT, 0.0100 BSA, 0.01% Triton-X 100) for 30 min at RT. Next, 10 μL of 3CL-protease substrate (40 μM) in assay buffer was added and the assays were monitored continuously for 1 h in an Envision multimode plate reader operating in fluorescence kinetics mode with excitation at 540 nm and emission at 580 nm at RT. No compound (DMSO only) and no enzyme controls were routinely included in each plate. All experiments were run in duplicate. Data Analysis: SARS-CoV-2 3CL-protease enzyme activity was measured as initial velocity of the linear phase (RFU/s) and normalized to controlled samples DMSO (10000 activity) and no enzyme (000 activity) to determine percent residual activity at various concentrations of test compounds (0-10 μM).

Assay: Inhibition Assay: The IC50 values for the PHD2 enzyme (residues 181-417) were determined by mixing increasing amounts of inhibitor with a fixed amount of enzyme (5 nM, final concentration) and Biotin labeled peptide (Biotin-Asp-Leu-Glu-Met-Leu-Ala-Pro-Tyr-Ile-Pro-Met-Asp-Asp-Asp-Phe-Gln-Leu, 1 uM final concentration) and 2-Oxyglutarate (2 uM final concentration) in 50 mM HEPES, 50 mM KCl, 0.5 mM TCEP, 2 uM FeCl2, 0.1 mg/ml BSA, at pH 7.3. The reaction was conducted by pre-incubating the enzyme in the presence of inhibitor for 60 min at room temperature. The activity of the free enzyme was measured by adding the peptide, the 2-Oxoglutarate (see above for final concentrations), and Ascorbic Acid (1 mM final concentration). The enzymatic activity was quenched after 60 min by adding an excess of a tight binding inhibitor to the assay mixture. The amount of product released was measured by using a LC/MS system (Agilent HPLC with Applied Biosystems API3000 Mass Spectrometer).

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.

Assay: Time-Resolved Fluorescence Energy Transfer (TR-FRET Tracer A): To determine of binding activity of the test compounds, full-length human ATR protein was expressed and purified together with ATRIP as described above. Furthermore, a fluorescently labelled compound (tracer A) was used as a tracer molecule. Detection of the binding event of the tracer was achieved by time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET). We used an anti-GST-Terbium antibody (CisBio) that binds to the GST-tag at the N-terminus of ATR-kinase. Excitation of Terbium with 337 nm light results in emission of fluorescent light with 545 nm. In case a tetrameric complex has formed (antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+Strp2-ATRIP+tracer), part of the energy will be transferred from the Terbium to the fluorophore that itself emits light of 570 nm. Displacement of the fluorescent tracer by a test compound leads to a reduction of the TR-FRET-signal.For the assay 50 nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384well microtiter plate (MTP, Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany). To prepare the ATR-working solution, ATR/ATRIP stock solution was diluted in assay buffer [50 mM HEPES (pH 7.0), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% (w/v) Igepal, 0.01% (w/v) BSA] to 4.2 nM protein concentration (concentration may vary from lot to lot of protein preparation). AntiGST-Tb antibody was diluted to 4.2 nM. The ATR-working solution was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. prior to dispensing to pre-form the complex of antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+ATRIP. Then, 3 μl of the ATR-working solution were added to the test compound and the mixture was incubated for 10 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to ATR/ATRIP. Then, 2 μl of a 100 nM solution of either tracer A or B in assay buffer were added to the ATR-working solution. The resulting mixture was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. The measurement of the TR-FRET signal was performed in a standard HTRF-compatible MTP reader instrument (e.g. BMG Pherastar) by recording the fluorescence emissions at 545 nm and 570 nm after excitation at 337-350 nm. The ratio between emission at 570 nm divided by emission at 545 nm was calculated to give the well ratio. The experimental data (well ratios) were normalised by the following way: positive control contained ATR-working solution plus either tracer A or B solution (=0% inhibition), the negative control contained all components except GST-ATR/ATRIP (=100% inhibition).

Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assays: 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: ROR gamma SPA Binding Assay: The binding of potential ligands to RORγ is measured by competition with [3H]25-hydroxycholesterol (Perkin Elmer NET674250UC) using a scintillation proximity assay (SPA) binding assay. The ligand binding domain of human RORγ (A262-S507) with an N-terminal His tag is expressed in E. coli and purified using nickel affinity chromatography. 15 ug/well RORγ (A262-S507) is incubated with test compound at varying concentrations in 3-fold serial dilution, with final concentrations ranging from 16.6 μM to 0.28 nM for 10 min at room temperature in PBS buffer (Invitrogen #14190-144) containing 0.5% fatty acid free BSA (Gemini Bio-Products, Cat. #700-107P) and 0.1% Glycerol (Sigma Cat# G5516). 10 nM of [3H] 25-hydroxycholesterol is then added, and the reaction is incubated for 10 min. 10 mg/mL of Copper-His Tag-PVT beads (Perkin Elmer cat # RPNQ0095) are added, and the mixture is incubated for 60 min. The reaction is read on a TopCount Microplate scintillation plate reader (Perkin Elmer). The competition data of the test compound over a range of concentrations was plotted as percentage inhibition of radioligand specifically bound in the absence of test compound (percent of total signal). After correcting for non-specific binding, IC50 values were determined. The IC50 value is defined as the concentration of test compound needed to reduce [3H] 25-hydroxycholesterol specific binding by 50% and is calculated using the four parameter logistic equation to fit the normalized data.

Assay: Biological Assays: The utility of the compounds of the invention as antagonists of metabotropic glutamate receptor activity, in particular mGluR2 activity, may be demonstrated by methodology known in the art. Antagonist constants are determined as follows. The compounds of the invention were tested in a fluorescence laser imaging plate reader based assay. This assay is a common functional assay to monitor Ca2+ mobilization in whole cells expressing recombinant receptor coupled with a promiscuous G-protein. CHO dhfr-cells stably expressing recombinant human mGluR2 and Gα16 loaded with Fluo-4 AM (Invitrogen, Carlsbad Calif.) were treated with various concentrations of antagonists of compounds and the Ca2+ response was monitored on a FLIPR384 (Molecular Devices, Sunnydale Calif.) for agonist activity. Then 2,500 nM glutamate was added and the antagonist response was monitored. The maximum calcium response at each concentration of compound for agonist or antagonist were plotted as dose responses and the curves were fitted with a four parameter logistic equation giving IC50 and Hill coefficient using the iterative non linear curve fitting software ADA (Merck & Co).

Assay: Biochemical Assay of FASN: The biochemical FASN activity testing was performed as 384 well two-time-point kinetic fluorescence intensity assay format in Greiner low volume medium binding 384-well black microtiter plates in a total assay volume of 8 μl and was used for high throughput screen. In each well 3 μl 40 nM human recombinant full-length fatty acid synthase (produced in-house in SF9 cells) were dispensed in the following assay buffer: 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer pH 7.0, 0.005% (w/v) BSA, 2 mM Glutathione, 0.02% Tween-20. Then 2 μl of 200 μM NADPH in assay buffer were added, followed by the addition of the test compounds in 10 dilution concentrations starting with 30 μM (final concentration) to get a final DMSO content of 1% (v/v). The mixture was incubated for at least 15 min at room temperature. After the pre-incubation the enzymatic reaction was started by the addition of 2 μl substrate solution (80 μM acetyl-CoA, 240 μM malonyl-CoA). A first fluorescence intensity measurement (time point one) was performed with an Envision multimode reader (Perkin Elmer LAS Germany GmbH) at excitation wavelength 340 nm (lamp mode) and emission wavelength 460 nm. The reaction was incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. After this the fluorescence intensity was measured again in the Envision using the same parameters as described above (second time point measurement). The data were analysed by subtracting the first time point measurement value from the second time point measurement value (after the enzymatic reaction). The differences of the emission signals were determined. These reflect directly the conversion rate of NADPH. The full value used was the inhibitor-free reaction. A pharmacological zero value was used like GSK837149A (Sigma-Aldrich) in a final concentration of 5-10 μM. The inhibitory values (IC50) were determined using either the program Symyx Assay Explorer® or Condosseo® from GeneData.

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).

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.
