Assay: LRRK2 Assay: LRRK2 kinase activity was measured using Lantha Screen technology from Invitrogen. GST-tagged truncated LRRK2 from Invitrogen (Cat #PV4874) was incubated with a fluorescein-labeled peptide substrate based upon ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM), also known as LRRKtide (Invitrogen cat #PR8976A), in the presence of a dose response of compound. Upon completion, the assay was stopped and detected with a terbium labeled anti-phospho-ERM antibody (Invitrogen, cat #PR8975A). The assay was carried out under the following protocol: The compound dose response was prepared by diluting compound to a top concentration of 0.3 mM in 100% DMSO and serial diluted by half-log in DMSO to give an 11 point curve, 100× final assay concentration. Using Echo acoustic dispensing, 60 nL of compound was transferred to a low volume Corning 384-well assay plate. 3 μL of a working solution of substrate (200 nM LRRKtide, 2 mM ATP) prepared in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, with 2 mM DTT and 0.01% Brij35 added fresh) was added to the 60 nL compound assay plate. The kinase reaction was started with 3 μL of a working solution of LRRK2 enzyme at a concentration of 4 μg/m L. The final reaction concentrations were 100 nM LRRKtide, 1 mM ATP, 2 μg/mL LRRK2 enzyme and a compound dose response with a top dose of 3 μM. The reaction was allowed to progress at room temperature for 30 minutes and then stopped with the addition of 6 μL of detection buffer (20 mM Tris pH 7.6, 0.01% NP-40, 6 mM EDTA with 2 nM terbium labeled antiphospho-ERM). After an incubation of 1 hour at room temperature, the plate was read on an Envision with an excitation wavelength of 340 nm and a reading emission at both 520 nm and 495 nm. The ratio of the 520 nm and 495 nm emission was used to analyze the data. Inhibition of mutant G2019S LRRK2 (Invitrogen cat #PV4881) was measured in the exact same method. All final concentrations of substrate ATP and enzyme were the same.

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: 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.

We used discrete wavelength, precise, kinetic reads of 15 cycles with a 60 sec cycle time.Determination of IC50 valuesFor the determination of IC50 values, the assays were performed at room temperature in 96-well plates with a total assay volume of 85 μL per well. The test compound was dissolved in 100% DMSO. The compounds were serially diluted in DMSO in a 7 point dose response. For the assays, 66.5 μL of protease solution (protease in assay buffer) was added per well followed by the addition of 8.5 μL of compound in 100% DMSO. The final assay concentration of the human plasma kallikrein was 250 μM. After 30 min. incubation at room temperature on an orbital shaker, the reactions were started by the addition of 10 μL substrate solution (in assay buffer, final assay concentration was 600 uM). After the addition of the substrate solution the final DMSO concentration was 10%. The plate was placed again on the shaker for 5 sec, spun at 2000 rpm for 5 sec and read on the spectrophotometer. The effect of the compound on the enzymatic activity was obtained from the linear part of the progress curves and determined after 15 minutes.

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: Electrophysiology Assay: Block of Kir1.1 (ROMK1) currents was examined by whole cell voltage clamp (Hamill et. al. 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.

UniProt: P24864
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: Enzymatic IDO Assay: The IC50 values for each compound were determined by testing the activity of IDO in a mixture containing 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer at pH 6.5; 70 nM purified human IDO protein, 200 μM L-tryptophan, 20 mM ascorbate, 20 μM methylene blue, 0.1% DMSO. The inhibitors were initially diluted in DMSO at 100 mM and were diluted in potassium phosphate 50 mM, added to the reaction mixture at final concentrations raging from 1 mM to 5 nM and preincubated with the enzyme for 5 min at 25° C. The reaction was started by addition of L-tryptophan to 200 μM and incubated 15 min at 37° C. The reaction was stopped by addition of 0.5 vol of 30% trichloroacetic acid and incubated 30 min at 60° C. to hydrolyze N-formylkynurenine to kynurenine. The reaction was centrifuged at 3400 g for 5 min to remove precipitated protein and the supernatant was reacted with 2% (w/v) of p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in acetic acid. The reaction was incubated 10 min at 25° C. and read at 480 nm in a spectrophotometer. Control samples with no IDO inhibitor, or with no IDO enzyme or with the reference inhibitors 1-methyl-tryptophan (200 μM) and menadione (1.2 μM) were used as controls to set the parameters for the non-linear regressions necessary for determination of the IC50 for each compound. Nonlinear regressions and determination of the IC50 values were performed using the GraphPad Prism 4 software. Compounds with an IC50 of less than 500 μM were considered as active inhibitors in this assay.

Target: Nuclear receptor ROR-gamma (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biological Assay: 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 (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 mg/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 ml 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 ml SF9 lysate per 15 ml of diluted RORγ-LBD.Compounds to be tested were injected to the 384-well assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, CA).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-SPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSP) (SEQ ID NO:1) and APC-conjugated streptavidin (final concentrations 100 nM and 8 nM respectively) were also added to each well.

Streptavidin was immobilized on a CMS (GE Healthcare) or CMD500d sensor chip (XanTec Bioanalytics) using standard amine-coupling chemistry at 25° C. with HBS-N (10 mM HEPES, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.4) as the running buffer. Briefly, the carboxymethyl dextran surface was activated with a 12 min injection of a 1:1 ratio of 0.4 M 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/0.1 M N-hydroxy succinimide (NHS) at a flow rate of 10 μL/min. For capture of streptavidin, protein was diluted to 0.2 mg/mL in 10 mM sodium acetate (pH 4.5) and captured by injecting 100 μL onto the activated chip surface. Residual activated groups were blocked with a 7 min injection of 1 M ethanolamine (pH 8.5). Avi-tagged PCSK9 protein was captured on the streptavidin surface by injection of 150 μL of protein diluted to 16 μg/mL in HBS-N, 0.05% tween-20, 0.1 mM CaCl2. Typical surface densities obtained were 8000-10000 RU. SPR binding data were obtained using an appropriate dilution series of each compound at a flow rate of 30 μL/ min, with a capture time of 100 s and dissociation times of 300 s. Running buffer for compound binding studies was HBS-N, 0.05% tween-20, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 4% DMSO. Data were corrected for DMSO excluded volume effects. All data were double-referenced for blank injections and reference surface using standard processing procedures and data processing and kinetic fitting were performed using Scrubber software, version 2.0c (BioLogic Software).

Assay: Quanta Red Assay: Measuring ATX activity using an enzyme coupled Quanta Red assay (Thermo Scientific Pierce Protein Research Products, Product #15159) was determined as follows. 8 μL human recombinant ATX (final concentration 0.8 μg/mL) in 1× Assay buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 5 mM CaCl2 was added to an opaque black flat-bottom 384-well plate (Corning, #3575) containing 2 μL test compound in 40% DMSO (4% final DMSO concentration). 10 μL of Quanta Red, Horseradish peroxidase (HRP), Choline Oxidase (CO), Rac-1-Palmitoyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine solution (final concentration 1:250 for Quanta Red, 0.5units/ml HRP, 0.5units/ml CO, 15 μM Rac-1-Palmitoyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine) in 1× assay buffer (as described previously) was added to each well to start the reaction and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction was stopped after 2 hours with a 20 μL addition of Quanta Red Stop solution (1:20 dilution in distilled water). The above-described mixture with DMSO alone was used as a positive control whereas that with DMSO alone without ATX was taken as a negative control. For each test compound, ten concentrations were measured covering a range of 6.1 nM to 120 μM to determine IC50 values. The top concentration was decreased to 1.2 μM when a test compound's IC50 value was evaluated in low nanomolar range. Fluorescence was determined in a BMG Labtech Pherastar plus plate reader (λ emission=540 nm, λ excitation=590 nm). Data were analysed using Excel fit software.
Measurement: IC50 = 773 nM (pChEMBL 6.110000133514404)
