Target: Serine hydroxymethyltransferase, cytosolic (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P34896
Assay: SHMT1 and SHMT2 Activity Assays: Full length human cytosolic Serine Hydroxymethyl transferase 1 (SHMT1, residues 1-483 in Uniport ID P34896) was expressed as an N-terminal His6 tagged protein and purified in E. coli using nickel capture followed by size-exclusion chromatography. Human mitochondrial SHMT2 (residues 30-504 in Uniprot ID P34897) with mitochondrial leader sequence deleted was expressed as an N-terminal His6 tagged protein and purified in E. coli using nickel capture followed by size-exclusion chromatography.Serine hydroxymethyltransferases catalyze the reversible hydroxymethylation of glycine to serine, with methylene tetrahydrofolate (CH2-THF) providing the additional carbon. SHMT1 and SHMT2 activity was determined by measuring serine production from glycine and CH2-THF using mass spectroscopy. Briefly, 15 ul of 0.5 mM glycine and 0.2 mM CH2-THF in 20 mM TEA, pH8.0, 0.2 mM NADPH were added to 384 well plate containing 0, 0.05 mM, 0.005 mM or 0.0005 mM of inhibitor. 15 ul of SHMT1 or 2 were added to initiate the reaction. The plate was incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature and the reaction was quenched by the addition of 30 ul of 10% trichloroacetic acid. Serine produced was analyzed using Rapidfire 360 and API4000+ in the positive ion mode.

Assay: Transactivation Assay: In the presence of an activator (agonist), the melanocortin receptor will activate the cAMP pathway which, via the CRE-Luc vector, will result in the synthesis of luciferase. After the addition of a lysis buffer containing a luminescent substrate for luciferase, it will be possible to measure the luminescence proportional to the degree of activation or of inhibition of the receptor. The products are solubilized at 10 mM in DMSO. They are tested in the form of dose-response at a final DMSO concentration of 0.1%. The range comprising 10 points and one zero begins at 10 μM with 4-fold dilutions. For testing agonists, the products are tested alone. For determining the behaviour of antagonists, the products of interest are tested in the presence of 1 nM NDP-MSH (reference agonist). The cells are seeded at a rate of 5000 cells per well (384 well plate) in serum-free DMEM medium, and incubated overnight at 37° C., 5% CO2.The products and the reference ligand (NDP-MSH) are added the following day, and the plates are again incubated for 6 h at 37° C., 5% CO2. After the addition of lysis buffer containing luciferin, the plates are read on a Top-Count instrument. The results are standardized as % activity using the 100% (cells+NDP-MSH at 10 nM) and 0% (cells alone) controls. An EC50 is calculated for each product using the XLFit software. The results are given in nM.

Target: Kappa-type opioid receptor (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P41145
Assay: OPRK1 antagonist assay: The cell line for the OPRK1 antagonist assay stably expresses the following elements. The carboxy terminus of the OPRK1 receptor has a 7 amino acid linker, followed by the TEV protease cleavage site and a GAL4-VP16 fusion protein. The cell line also expresses a b-arrestin-2-TEV protease fusion protein and contains a reporter construct consisting of the UAS response element and the b-lactamase (bla) reporter gene. Upon activation of the receptor, g-protein receptor kinase (GRK) phosphorylates specific intracellular residues of OPKR1 and this induces recruitment of B-arrestin2-TEV protease fusion protein. The TEV protease recognizes and cleaves the TEV site, releasing the GAL4-VP16 fusion protein, which then translocates to the nucleus. The GAL4-V16 binds to the UAS element, driving expressing of the b-lactamase gene. B-lactamase expression is detected with the cell permeable, fluorescent substrate, CCF4-AM. This substrate consists of coumarin tethered to fluoroscein via a b-lactam ring. In the absence of b-lactamase, excitation of the dye with 405 nm light results in FRET from the coumarin to fluoroscein and emission of green (525 nm maximum) light. B-lactamase cleavage of the substrate separates the courmarin fluorophore from the fluorscein, and 405 nm excitation results in blue (460 nm maximum) emission. The assay is monitored by the blue/green emission ratio. The antagonist assay is performed by seeding the cells into 384 well plates and incubating them 16-24 hours at 37° C. Test antagonist compounds are added and incubated for 30 minutes at 37° C. Next an EC80 challenge of U-50488 (OKRK1 agonist) is added and the samples are incubated for 4 hours at 37° C., followed by addition of CCF4-AM substrate. The plates are then incubated 2 hours at room temperature in the dark and the blue/green ratio determined on a fluorescent plate reader. See J Biomol Screen April 2009, vol. 14 no. 4, pp 381-394.

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: Btk Enzyme Activity Assay: BTK enzymatic activity was determined with the LANCE (Lanthanide Chelate Excite) TR-FRET (Time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer) assay. In this assay, the potency (IC50) of each compound was determined from an eleven point (1:3 serial dilution; final compound concentration range in assay from 1 μM to 0.017 nM) titration curve using the following outlined procedure. To each well of a black non-binding surface Corning 384-well microplate (Corning Catalog #3820), 5 nL of compound (2000 fold dilution in final assay volume of 10 μL) was dispensed, followed by the addition of 7.5 μL of 1× kinase buffer (50 mM Hepes 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Brij-35, 1 mM EGTA, 0.05% BSA & 1 mM DTT) containing 5.09 pg/μL (66.67 pM) of BTK enzyme (recombinant protein from baculovirus-transfected Sf9 cells: full-length BTK, 6HIS-tag cleaved). Following a 60 minute compound & enzyme incubation, each reaction was initiated by the addition of 2.5 μL 1× kinase buffer containing 8 μM biotinylated A5 peptide (Biotin-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-NH2) (SEQ.ID.NO.: 1), and 100 μM ATP. The final reaction in each well of 10 μL consists of 50 pM hBTK, 2 μM biotin-A5-peptide, and 25 μM ATP. Phosphorylation reactions were allowed to proceed for 120 minutes. Reactions were immediately quenched by the addition of 20 uL of 1× quench buffer (15 mM EDTA, 25 mM Hepes 7.3, and 0.1% Triton X-100) containing detection reagents (0.626 nM of LANCE-Eu-W1024-anti-phosphoTyrosine antibody, PerkinElmer and 86.8 nM of Streptavidin-conjugated Dylight 650, Dyomics/ThermoFisher Scientific). After 60 minutes incubation with detection reagents, reaction plates were read on a PerkinElmer EnVision plate reader using standard TR-FRET protocol. Briefly, excitation of donor molecules (Eu-chelate:anti-phospho-antibody) with a laser light source at 337 nm produces energy that can be transferred to Dylight-650 acceptor molecules if this donor:acceptor pair is within close proximity Fluorescence intensity at both 665 nm (acceptor) and 615 nm (donor) are measured and a TR-FRET ratio calculated for each well (acceptor intensity/donor intensity). IC50 values were determined by 4 parameter robust fit of TR-FRET ratio values vs. (Log10)) compound concentrations.

Assay: In Vivo Inhibition of Beta-Secretase: Several animal models, including mouse, rat, dog, and monkey, may be used to screen for inhibition of beta-secretase activity in vivo following administration of a test compound sample. Animals used in this invention can be wild type, transgenic, or gene knockout animals. For example, the Tg2576 mouse model, prepared and conducted as described in Hsiao et al., 1996, Science 274, 99-102, and other non-transgenic or gene knockout animals are useful to analyze in vivo inhibition of Amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) production in the presence of inhibitory test compounds. Generally, 2 to 18 month old Tg2576 mice, gene knockout mice or non-transgenic animals are administered test compounds formulated in vehicles, such as cyclodextran, phosphate buffers, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or other suitable vehicles. One to twenty-four hours following the administration of compound, animals are sacrificed, and brains as well as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma are removed for analysis of A-beta levels and drug or test compound concentrations (Dovey et al., 2001, Journal of Neurochemistry, 76, 173-181) Beginning at time 0, animals are administered by oral gavage, or other means of delivery such as intravenous injection, an inhibitory test compound of up to 100 mg/kg in a standard, conventional formulation, such as 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 1% Tween80. A separate group of animals receive 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 1% Tween80 alone, containing no test compound, and serve as a vehicle-control group. At the end of the test period, animals are sacrificed and brain tissues, plasma or cerebrospinal fluid are collected. Brains are either homogenized in 10 volumes (w/v) of 0.2% diethylamine (DEA) in 50 mM NaCl (Best et al., 2005, Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 313, 902-908), or in 10 volumes of 0.5% TritonX-100 in Tris-buffered saline (pH at about 7.6). Homogenates are centrifuged at 355,000 g, 4° C. for 30 minutes. CSF or brain supernatants are then analyzed for the presence of A-beta peptide by specific sandwich ELISA assays based on ECL (Electrochemiluminescence) technology.

Recombinant protein complex CDK4/Cyclin D1, expressed from insect cell, was purchased from ProQinase. Testing compounds were dissolved in DMSO at 0.1 mM and tested in 9-dose IC50 mode. The reaction mixture was prepared by mixing CDK4/CyclinD1 (1 nM final), ULight-4E-BP1 (100 nM final, Perkinelmer, TRF0128-D), and ATP (2 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). After 20 minutes preincubation at room temperature, MgCl2(10 mM final) was added to initiate the reaction. Following a 60 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), 2 nM LANCE Ultra Europium-anti-P-4E-BP1 (Perkinelmer, TRF0216-D), 10 mM EDTA, and incubate at room temperature for additional 60 minutes in dark.

Assay: HPK1 Biochemical Enzyme Assay: HPK1 enzyme inhibition was measured using a microfluidic mobility shift assay (MSA). The reactions were conducted in 50 μL volumes in 96-well plates, and contained 0.5 nM human full-length recombinant HPK1, 3 μM phosphoacceptor peptide, 5FAM-AKRRRLSSLRA-COOH (CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.), test compound (11-dose 3-fold serial dilutions, 2% DMSO final) or DMSO only, 0.002% Tween-20, 1 mM DTT and 2.5 mM MgCl2 in 50 mM MOPS (3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid), pH 7.8, buffer and were initiated by addition of 75 μM ATP, following a 20-min preincubation. The reactions were conducted for 60 min at 37° C., stopped by the addition of 50 μL of 0.015 M EDTA, pH 8, and the extent of reactions (15-20% conversion with no inhibitor) was determined after electrophoretic separation of the fluorescently labeled peptide substrate and phosphorylated product on an LabChip EZ Reader II (PerkinElmer, Inc., Waltham, Mass.).Inhibition of HPK1 was also measured using the fluorescence based chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) method (1), using a proprietary fluorescent peptide substrate, in which a cysteine residue is alkylated with a sulfonamido-oxine based derivative to afford an amino acid termed C-Sox (CSx). The assay was conducted similarly as described for the MSA method above, but using 3 μM Ac-[CSx]HSLPRFNR-amide peptide substrate (also known as AQT0178 when purchased from AssayQuant Technologies Inc., Hopkinton, Mass.) and 45 μM ATP. Initial reaction velocities were determined by following the peptide fluorescence (λex=360 nm, λem=500 nm) at 30° C. for 15 min in a Tecan M1000 plate reader (Tecan Group Ltd., Männedorf, Zürich, Switzerland). The inhibition constant (Ki) values were calculated by fitting the % conversion based (MSA method) or fluorescence based initial velocities (CHEF method) to the Morrison equation (2) for tight-binding competitive inhibition using non-linear regression method and an experimentally measured ATP Km (29 μM by MSA and 19 μM by CHEF, respectively). The inhibitors were shown to be ATP-competitive from kinetic and crystallographic studies. HPK1 protein was produced in-house and preactivated by autophosphorylation of enzyme with MgATP as described in the section Production of recombinant autophosphorylated full-length HPK1.

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: 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.

The kinase reaction was carried out for 30 minutes before addition of stopping buffer to a final of 20 mM EDTA and 0.5 nM of LANCE Ultra Europium anti-phospho-MBP antibody (PerkinElmer TRF0201M) in LANCE detection buffer (PerkinElmer CR97-100). The reaction was equilibrated for 1 hour and the signal read in the Perkin Elmer Envision in TR-FRET mode (excitation at 320 nm and emission at 615/665 nm).
