Assay: Inhibition by Candidate Inhibitors (Low): Fluorescently-labeled inhibitor probe was synthesized and tagged with BODIPY FL (Example 46). Cbl-b displacement assays were performed in a 384-well plate at room temperature in a 10 μL reaction volume by pre-incubating 0.125 nM Cbl-b in an assay buffer containing 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Triton X-100, 0.01% BSA, and 0.5 mM TCEP in the presence of a candidate compound in 1% DMSO (final concentration) for 1 hour. After incubation in the presence of the candidate compound, the plate was incubated for an additional 1 hour in the presence of an approximate EC40 binding saturation consisting of 150 nM fluorescently-labeled inhibitor probe and 2 nM Streptavidin-Terbium (Cisbio) (final concentrations). Following the 1 hour incubation, the plates were read for TR-FRET signal at 520/620 nM using an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer). The presence of a TR-FRET signal indicated that the probe was not displaced from Cbl-b by the compound candidate. The absence of a FRET signal indicated that the probe was displaced from Cbl-b by the compound candidate.

Assay: Protein Kinase Assay: Assay platform was used to measure kinase/inhibitor interactions as described previously (Anastassiadis et al., 2011). In brief, for each reaction, kinase and substrate were mixed in a buffer containing 20 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.02% Brij35, 0.02 mg/mL BSA, 0.1 mM Na3VO4, 2 mM DTT, and 1% DMSO. All compounds were solubilized in DMSO. Compounds were then added to each reaction mixture via acoustic dispense using an ECHO 550 nanoliter dispenser. For human RAF1 testing, human MEK1 (K97R) was used as a substrate at a concentration of 3 micromolar, with a final ATP concentration of 10 micromolar. For human BRAF testing, human MEK1 (K97R) was used as a substrate at 1 micromolar concentration, with a final ATP concentration of 25 micromolar. Compounds were tested in 10-dose IC50 mode with a 3-fold serial dilution starting at 10 micromolar. After a 20-min incubation, ATP (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, Mo. 63178) and [g33P] ATP (specific activity 10 microCi/microliter) purchased at PerkinElmer (Boston, Mass., 02118 Cat #BLU 003H250UC) were added at a final total concentration of 10 mM. Reactions were carried out at room temperature for 2 hr and spotted onto P81 ion exchange cellulose chromatography paper (Reaction Biology). Filter paper was washed in 0.75% phosphoric acid to remove unincorporated ATP. The percent remaining kinase activity relative to a vehicle-containing (DMSO) kinase reaction was calculated for each kinase/inhibitor pair. IC50 values were calculated using Prism 5 (GraphPad).

Assay: ThermoFluor Assay: ThermoFluor is a fluorescence based assay that estimates ligand binding affinities by measuring the effect of a ligand on protein thermal stability (Pantoliano, M. W., Petrella, E. C., Kwasnoski, J. D., Lobanov, V. S., Myslik, J., Graf, E., Carver, T., Asel, E., Springer, B. A., Lane, P., and Salemme, F. R. (2001) High-density miniaturized thermal shift assays as a general strategy for drug discovery. J Biomol Screen 6, 429-40, and Matulis, D., Kranz, J. K., Salemme, F. R., and Todd, M. J. (2005) Thermodynamic stability of carbonic anhydrase: measurements of binding affinity and stoichiometry using ThermoFluor. Biochemistry 44, 5258-66). This approach is applicable to a wide variety of systems, and rigorous in theoretical interpretation through quantitation of equilibrium binding constants (KD).In a ThermoFluor experiment where protein stability is monitored as the temperature is steadily increased, an equilibrium binding ligand causes the midpoint of an unfolding transition (Tm) to occur at a higher temperature. The shift in the melting point described as a ΔTm is proportional to the concentration and affinity of the ligand. The compound potency may be compared as a rank order of either ΔTm values at a single compound concentration or in terms of KD values, estimated from concentration response curves.

Assay: TR-FRET Binding Assay : A Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) assay that measures the displacement of the 10mer-Thr-FAM probe in response to compound treatment was performed for compounds wherein the IC50 from FPA assay using 10mer-Thr-FAM was below the lower assay IC50 limit 1 nM. Excess 10mer-Thr-FAM probe was utilized with His-tagged WDR5 in conjunction with a commercial anti-His antibody containing a Terbium label. The LanthaScreen Elite Tb-anti-HIS Antibody from ThermoFisher Scientific was used for this purpose. This Th-anti-HIS has an excitation/emission of 340 nm and 490 nm, respectively. The 10mer-Thr-FAM probe when bound to WDR5 will undergo a FRET interaction with the Tb-anti-HIS and emit at 520 nm. The ratio of the 520 and 495 signals are then utilized to generate a dose-response curve to calculate an IC50 value. By virtue of FRET there is little to no background fluorescence interference from 10mer-Thr-FAM probe allowing an excess of the probe to be used permitting an increase in the lower limit of the calculated Ki when testing against highly potent inhibitors with Ki<<1 nM. WDR5-His Tag (A23, residues 24-334) is expressed and purified in our lab in sufficient quantities for screening. 10mer-Thr-FAM peptide is used anywhere from 15 to 150 nM depending on the window of sensitivity required. WDR5-His tag protein is used at 2 nM. A source plate is prepared using an Echo Liquid Handler, which distributes the compounds to the assay plate (white, flat-bottom; OptiPlate) in a 10-point, 3-fold dilution schemes with a top concentration of either 5 or 20 μM depending on the anticipated potency of the compounds, in a final volume of 20 μL. A final target (WDR5)/Tb-Ab concentration of 2 nM/1 nM is dispensed from appropriate stock solutions, respectively. The final DMSO concentration in each well of the assay plate is 1% or lower. As before the plate is covered, shielded from light, and incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature with rocking. Anisotropy is then measured on a Biotek Cytation 3 at excitation wavelength of 340 nm, and emission wavelengths of 495 nm and 520 nm. Working buffer conditions (pH 7.0) are similar to that in FPA above. TR-FRET signal is plotted and IC50 and Ki values are calculated in the same manner as the fluorescence polarization anisotropy based competition assays.

Assay: Intracellular cAMP Accumulation Assay: HEK293 cells stably expressing human APJ receptor were used to assess the activity of compounds. Cultured cells were detached and resuspended in the cAMP Homogeneous Time-Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF) assay buffer (Cisbio cat; #62AM4PEJ). The assay was performed in 384-well assay plates (Perkin-Elmer; cat #6008289) according to assay protocol provided by the manufacturer. Serial dilutions of a compound together with assay buffer containing 0.2 nM IBMX and 2 μM forskolin were added to each well containing 5,000 cells and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Subsequently, cAMP D2 reagent was added in the lysis buffer followed by the EuK antibody (Cisbio; cat #62AM4PEJ) and incubated for 60 min. The fluorescence emission ratio was measured using fluorometer. The intracellular cAMP concentrations (compound-stimulated inhibition of forskolin-mediated cAMP production) were calculated by extrapolation from a standard curve using known cAMP concentrations. The EC50 values were obtained by fitting the data to a sigmoidal concentration-response curve with variable slope. The maximal achievable inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP levels (Ymax) for each compound was expressed as relative percentage of inhibition attained using pyroglutamated apelin-13 ((Pyrl)apelin-13) peptide, which was set to 100%.

Assay: FLIPR Assay in PAR4-Expressing HEK293 Cells: FLIPR-based calcium mobilization assay in HEK293 cells was used to measure PAR4 antagonism, agonism, and selectivity against PAR1. The activity of the PAR4 antagonists of the present invention were tested in PAR4 expressing cells by monitoring H-Ala-Phe(4-F)-Pro-Gly-Trp-Leu-Val-Lys-Asn-Gly-NH2-induced intracellular calcium mobilization. Counter screens for agonist activity and PAR1 antagonist activity were also performed. Briefly, PAR1/PAR4-expressing HEK293 cells were grown in DMEM (Life Technology, Grand Island, N.Y.) containing 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin, 10 μg/mL blasticidin, and 100 μg/mL Zeocin at 37° C. with 5% CO2. Cells were plated overnight prior to the experiment in a black 384-well Purecoat Amine clear bottom plate (Becton Dickinson Biosciences, San Jose, Calif.) at 10,000 cells/well in 30 μL growth medium and incubated in a humidified chamber at 37° C. with 5% CO2 overnight. Prior to compound addition, the cell medium was replaced with 40 L of 1× calcium and magnesium-containing Hank's Balanced Saline Solution (HBSS) (with 20 mM HEPES) and 1:1000 diluted fluorescent calcium indicator (Codex Biosolutions, Gaithersburg, Md.). After a 30 minute incubation period at 37° C. and a further 30 minute incubation and equilibration period at room temperature, 20 μL test compound (diluted in 1× HBSS buffer) was added at various concentrations at 0.17% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) final concentration. Changes in fluorescence intensity were measured using a Functional Drug Screening System (FDSS, Hamamatsu, Japan) to determine agonist activities. The cells were then incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature followed by addition of 20 μL of agonist peptide for antagonist activity measurement. The PAR4 agonist peptide (H-Ala-Phe(4-F)-Pro-Gly-Trp-Leu-Val-Lys-Asn-Gly-NH2) and the PAR1 agonist peptide (SFFLRR) were routinely tested to ensure a proper response at the EC50 value in the assay (5 μM for PAR4 agonist peptide and 2 μM for PAR1 agonist peptide).

UniProt: P51449
Assay: TR-FRET Screening: The compounds of the present application can regulate (inhibit) the biological activity of the nuclear receptor RORγ, and the intensity of such a regulation (inhibition) can be evaluated by TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) screening system. Nuclear receptor cofactors (co-activators and co-repressors) can regulate the transcription of target genes through interactions with nuclear receptors. If a ligand (test compound) interferes with the interaction between a nuclear receptor and a cofactor, such a ligand (test compound) can regulate the transcription of the corresponding gene.The method employs LanthaScreen TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) technique of Life Technologies Co. to test the compounds for their abilities to regulate (agonize or inversely agonize) the interaction between RORγ and its co-activator. RORγ-LBD is indirectly labeled by binding a terbium(Tb)-labeled anti-GST antibody (Life Technologies #PV3550) onto the GST tag of RORγ-LBD (Life Technologies #PV5887). When no ligand is present, RORγ can continuously bind to a fluorescein-labeled co-activator, and the binding of an agonist to RORγ can enhance the interaction between RORγ and the fluorescein-labeled co-activator; while the binding of an inverse agonist to RORγ can inhibit the interaction between RORγ and the fluorescein-labeled co-activator. When the fluorescein-labeled co-activator and the terbium-labeled anti-GST antibody-RORγ-LBD composite are close to each other to a certain distance, an energy transfer can occur, generating a TR-FRET signal. The co-activators employed in the method are not limited to D22 (Life Technologies #PV4386).(1) The final concentrations in the reaction system and the reaction conditions in the method are shown in the table below:TABLE 2 Concentration of Total Concentration of Fluorescein-labeled Concentration of Tb-labeled volume Reaction ROR γ-LBD co-activator activator peptide anti-GST antibody (μL) conditions 2 nM D22 150 nM 2 nM 20 22° C., 5 hr Fluorescein-D22

Assay: Phosphodiersterase Evaluation Assay: IMAP TR-FRET Phosphodiersterase Evaluation Assay Kit (Molecular Device) was used for the measurement. Ten μL of a diluted test compound having each concentration and 5 μL of the enzyme PDE10 (BPA Bioscience) that had been diluted to 2 ng/mL with 1×IMAP Reaction Buffer (prepared with 5×included with the kit, 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH=7.2, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.05% NaN3, and 0.1% BSA) containing 0.1% BSA were added to a 384-well plate (Corning). The obtained mixture was then pre-incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes. Thereafter, 5 μL of cAMP substrate solution which was included with the kit and diluted to 400 nM with 1×IMAP Reaction Buffer containing 0.1% BSA, was added to the reaction solution, and the obtained mixture was reacted at room temperature for 60 minutes. Thereafter, 60 μL of an IMAP TR-FRET Binding solution included with the kit was further added to the reaction solution, and the obtained mixture was then left for 3 hours or more. Subsequently, using ARVO SX (PerkinElmer), the fluorescent intensity of Terbium (Emission=490 nm) and TR-FRET (Emission=520 nm) in the reaction solution were measured at an excitation wavelength of 340 nm, so as to calculate the amount of the generated 5′-AMP. The count of a well to which a solvent had been added instead of the test compound was set at 0%, and the count of a well to which the enzyme PDE10 had not been added was set at 100%. Thus, the inhibitory activity of each test compound was calculated.

Assay: transient human FXR/Gal4-luciferase reporter assay: A Gal4-hFXR fusion construct reporter system was used as the primary assay to characterize compound activity. A construct including 5 copies of the Gal4 promoter response element upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter cDNA was stably expressed in HEK293 cells. This reporter cell line was maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco) supplemented with 1% penicillin-streptomycin (P/S) solution, 500 μg/mL Zeocin and 10% charcoal/dextran-treated fetal bovine serum (cs-FBS) at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Another plasmid was constructed in which the human cytomegalovirus promoter in the pcDNA3.1 vector directs the expression of the cDNA encoding a fusion protein comprised of the DNA binding domain from the Gal4 transcription factor fused to the ligand binding domain from human FXR.The day prior to transfection, the reporter cells in culture are detached from the plate with trypsin and plated into a T75 flask at a sufficient density to achieve approximately 90% confluence the next morning. The transfection reagents are prepared by separately diluting 25 μg of the pcDNA3.1-Gal4-FXR plasmid into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM (Thermo-Fisher), and 40 μL of Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo-Fisher) into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM, and then adding the diluted DNA solution into the diluted Lipofectamine 2000 solution and incubating at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. The mixture is further diluted with 10 mL of a solution comprised of DMEM, 10% cs-FBS, and 1% P/S immediately prior to transferring to the cells. The maintenance culture media is aspirated from the cells and the final transfection mixture is added before the cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. This protocol can be scaled up, and the transiently transfected cells can be cryopreserved in an assay-ready format.For compound testing, 100 nL of the compounds (serial dilutions in DMSO) are dispensed with an Echo acoustic dispenser (Labcyte) into the wells of a Corning/Costar clear bottom 384-well white plate. The transfected cells are harvested, counted, and diluted such that 10-25,000 cells in 25 μL are plated into each well of the 384-well compound assay plate. The compound-treated cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. The next morning 25 μL of Steady-Glo (Promega) are added to each well of the plate, the mixture is incubated for 15 min. with shaking, and luminescence is measured on an Envision (Perkin Elmer) plate reader. Background counts from cells treated with DMSO alone are subtracted from all raw counts, and the corrected values are converted to a percentage of the control response attained with 8 μM GW-4064. These data are fit to a 4-parameter log agonist-response equation to calculate an EC50 value.
