Assay: cAMP Assay: CHO cells expressing human CB1 or CB2 receptors are seeded 17-24 hours prior to the experiment 50.000 cells per well in a black 96 well plate with flat clear bottom (Corning Costar #3904) in DMEM (Invitrogen No. 31331), 1xHT supplement, with 10% fetal calf serum and incubated at 5% CO2 and 37° C. in a humidified incubator. The growth medium was exchanged with Krebs Ringer Bicarbonate buffer with 1 mM IBMX and incubated at 30° C. for 30 min. Compounds were added to a final assay volume of 100 ul and incubated for 30 min at 30° C. Using the cAMP-Nano-TRF detection kit the assay (Roche Diagnostics) was stopped by the addition of 50 ul lysis reagent (Tris, NaCl, 1.5% Triton X100, 2.5% NP40, 10% NaN3) and 50 ul detection solutions (20 uM mAb Alexa700-cAMP 1:1, and 48 uM Ruthenium-2-AHA-cAMP) and shaken for 2 h at room temperature. The time-resolved energy transfer is measured by a TRF reader (Evotec Technologies GmbH), equipped with a ND:YAG laser as excitation source. The plate is measured twice with the excitation at 355 nm and at the emission with a delay of 100 ns and a gate of 100 ns, total exposure time 10 s at 730 (bandwidth 30 nm) or 645 nm (bandwidth 75 nm), respectively. The FRET signal is calculated as follows: FRET=T730-Alexa730-P(T645-B645) with P=Ru730-B730/Ru645-B645, where T730 is the test well measured at 730 nM, T645 is the test well measured at 645 nm, B730 and B645 are the buffer controls at 730 nm and 645 nm, respectively. cAMP content is determined from the function of a standard curve spanning from 10 uM to 0.13 nM cAMP. EC50 values were determined using Activity Base analysis (ID Business Solution, Limited). The EC50 values for a wide range of cannabinoid agonists generated from this assay were in agreement with the values published in the scientific literature. The compounds of the invention are CB2 receptor agonists with EC50 below 1 uM and selectivity versus CB1 in the corresponding assay of at least 10 fold.

Assay plates in 384 well format were prepared with 8-point serial dilutions for the test compounds on a Thermo CatX workstation equipped with a Innovadyne Nanodrop Express. The assay plates were prepared by addition of 50 nl per well of compound solution in 90% DMSO. The kinase reactions were started by stepwise addition of 4.5 ul per well of peptide/ATP-solution (4 uM FITC-Ahx-TSELKKWALYDYMPMNAND-NH2, 164 uM ATP) in kinase buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 0.02% Tween20, 0.02% BSA, 0.6% DMSO, 10 mM beta-glycerophosphate, and 10 uM sodium orthovanadate, 18 mM MgCl2, 1 mM MnCl2) and 4.5 ul per well of enzyme solution (6.4 nM full-length human recombinant BTK) in kinase buffer. Kinase reactions were incubated at 30° C. for 60 minutes and subsequently terminated by addition of 16 ul per well of stop solution (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 5% DMSO, 0.1% Caliper coating reagent, 10 mM EDTA, and 0.015% Brij35). Kinase reactions were analyzed on a Caliper LC3000 workstation by separating phosphorylated and unphosphorylated peptides and kinase activities were calculated from the amounts of newly formed phospho-peptide. Inhibition data were calculated by comparison to control reactions without enzyme (100% inhibition) and without inhibitors (0% inhibition). The concentration of inhibitor required for 50% inhibition (IC50) was calculated from the inhibition in response to inhibitor concentrations.

Target: Glutamate receptor ionotropic, NMDA 2B (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13224
Assay: Standard cell-based calcium flux 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 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) 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: ThermoFluor Assay: ThermoFluor® experiments were carried out using instruments owned by Janssen Research and Development, L.L.C. through its acquisition of 3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 1,8-ANS (Invitrogen) was used as a fluorescent dye. Protein and compound solutions are dispensed into black 384-well polypropylene PCR microplates (Abgene) and overlayed with silicone oil (1 μL, Fluka, type DC 200) to prevent evaporation. Bar-coded assay plates are robotically loaded onto a thermostatically controlled PCR-type thermal block and then heated at a typical ramp-rate of 1° C./min for all experiments. Fluorescence was measured by continuous illumination with UV light (Hamamatsu LC6) supplied via fiber optic and filtered through a band-pass filter (380-400 nm; >6 OD cutoff). Fluorescence emission of the entire 384-well plate was detected by measuring light intensity using a CCD camera (Sensys, Roper Scientific) filtered to detect 500±25 nm, resulting in simultaneous and independent readings of all 384 wells. Images were collected at each temperature, and the sum of the pixel intensity in a given area of the assay plate was recorded versus temperature.

Assay: Fluorescence Assay (FRET): SARS-CoV-2 3C-like (3CL) protease fluorescence assay (FRET): Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 3CL-protease was expressed and purified. TAMRA-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, 0.01% 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 (100% activity) and no enzyme (0% activity) to determine percent residual activity at various concentrations of test compounds (0-10 μM). Data were fitted to normalized activity (variable slope) versus concentration fit in GraphPad Prism 7 to determine IC50.

Target: Autotaxin (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13822
Assay: Biochemical Assay: Compound IC50 values are determined in a fluorescent hENPP2 (UniProtKB/SwissProt Sequence ref Q13822) biochemical assay using the fluorogenic autotaxin substrate FS-3 as substrate. FS-3 is a doubly labeled analog of LPC wherein the fluorophore is quenched through intramolecular energy transfer. Without hENPP2, the emission of the probe is quenched. If the substrate is hydrolyzed by hENPP2, the emission of the probe is not quenched anymore resulting in a fluorescence increase. Inhibition of hENPP2 by compounds will result in a decrease of the signal. 10 uL of a dilution series of compound, starting from 20 uM highest concentration, dilution, is added to the wells. hENPP2 is used at a final concentration of 0.4 ug/mL or 0.64 ug/mL (it will be appreciated by the skilled person that the potency read out is independent of the enzyme concentration). The enzyme is diluted in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 250 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.1% fatty acid free BSA in a total volume of 20 uL. Enzyme mixture is added to compounds and the resulting mixture is incubated for 30 min at room temperature under shaking. The reaction is started by the addition of 20 uL of 0.75 uM FS-3 diluted in the same buffer as described above and the mixture is incubated at 30° C. for 30 min. Fluorescence is read on the Envision (Excitation 485 nm, emission 520 nM).

Assay: RET Enzyme Assay: Compounds of Formula I were screened for their ability to inhibit wildtype and V804M mutant RET kinase using CisBio's HTRF® KinEASE¿-TK assay technology. Briefly, N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Eurofins (0.25 nM RET; Catalog No. 14-570M) or N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human V804M mutant RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Millipore (0.25 nM enzyme; Catalog No. 14-760) was incubated with 250 nM TK-substrate biotin (CisBio, part of Catalog No. 62TK0PEC) and 1 mM ATP along with test compound in a buffer consisting of 25 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Triton X-100, and 2% DMSO in a volume of 8 μL. Compounds were typically prepared in a threefold serial dilution in DMSO and added to the assay to give the appropriate final concentration. After a 30-minute incubation at 22° C., the reaction was quenched by adding 8 μL of quench solution containing 31.25 nM Sa-XL665 and 1×TK-ab-Cryptate in HTRF detection buffer (all from CisBio, part of Cat. No. 62TK0PEC). After a 1 hour incubation at 22° C., the extent of reaction was determined using a PerkinElmer EnVision multimode plate reader via HTRF dual wavelength detection, and the percent of control (POC) was calculated using a ratiometric emission factor. 100 POC was determined using no test compounds and 0 POC was determined using pre-quenched control reactions. The POC values were fit to a 4 parameter logistic curve, and the IC50 is defined as the concentration of inhibitor at which the POC equals 50 for the fitted curve.

Assay: GAL4-RORgamma Transactivation: The RORγ transactivation model was developed from the line HG5LN, which is a HeLa line that stably expresses a luciferase reporter gene controlled by a pentamer of the GAL4 recognition domain of yeast and of a β-globin promoter. The HG5LN line was stably transfected by the DNA-binding domain (DBD) of GAL4 fused to the ROR gamma ligand-binding domain (LBD). Molecules that inhibit the ROR gamma constitutive activity reduce the luciferase expression, thus leading to a reduction in the emitted luminescence.The cells are seeded in 384-well plates (5000 cells in 45 μL/well of culture medium containing 10% fetal calf serum) and incubated for 4 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2. 5 μL of the test molecules (compounds described in the tables described above) are then added to each well and the plates are incubated for 18 hours at a temperature of 37° C. under 5% of CO2. 20 μL of luciferase substrate (Promega) are added to each well and the luminescence emitted is read by a microplate reader.The luminescence units (RLU) are normalized by positive controls (POS containing a saturated concentration of benzenesulfonamide, N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-N-[4-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]phenyl]) and negative controls (NEG containing DMSO): % inhibition=((RLU−NEG)*100)/(POS−NEG). The IC50 values are calculated from a 4-parameter logistic model using the XLFit software (IDBS).

Assay: Kinase Assay: A recombinant fusion protein of Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST, N-terminally) and human full-length MKNK1 (amino acids 1-424 and T344D of accession number BAA 19885.1), expressed in insect cells using baculovirus expression system and purified via glutathione sepharose affinity chromatography, was purchased from Carna Biosciences (product no 02-145) and used as enzyme. As substrate for the kinase reaction the biotinylated peptide biotin-Ahx-IKKRKLTRRKSLKG (C-terminus in amide form) was used which can be purchased e.g. form the company Biosyntan (Berlin-Buch, Germany).For the assay 50 nL of a 100 fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384 well microtiter plate (Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μL of a solution of MKNK1 in aqueous assay buffer [50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 5 mM magnesium chloride, 1.0 mM dithiothreitol, 0.005% (v/v) Nonidet-P40 (Sigma)] was added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to the enzyme before the start of the kinase reaction. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of 3 μL of a solution of adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP, 16.7 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 10 μM) and substrate (0.1 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 0.06 μM) in assay buffer and the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 45 min at 22° C. The concentration of MKNK1 was adjusted depending of the activity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assay in the linear range, typical concentrations were in the range of 0.05 μg/ml. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 5 μL of a solution of TR-FRET detection reagents (5 nM streptavidine-XL665 [Cisbio Bioassays, Codolet, France] and 1 nM anti-ribosomal protein 56 (pSer236)-antibody from Invitrogen [#44921G] and 1 nM LANCE EU-W1024 labeled ProteinG [Perkin-Elmer, product no.

UniProt: P17752
Assay: Biochemical In Vitro Assay: To generate the enzyme, full length human TPH1 is cloned into the plasmid pET20b(+) (Novagen) and expressed in E. coli. The bacterial cells are ruptured by sonication on ice and the lysate is cleared by centrifugation. The resulting protein in the pellet is re-extracted and TPH1 is purified from the obtained lysate by affinity chromatography using a pterin cosubstrate analog immobilized to the resin of the column. The protein is further purified by size exclusion chromatography to remove protein aggregates. The activity of TPH1 is determined by using a fluorescence assay. The enzyme activity assay is carried out at 15° C. with atmosphere oxygen for the duration of 60 minutes in a volume of 64 μl. The reaction is carried out in a 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer, adjusted to pH 7.6, containing 1 mM DTT, 0.2 mg/mL catalase, 100 μM (±)-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterine dihydrochloride, 40 μM L-tryptophan, and 40-80 nM of TPH1. The reaction is started by bringing together L-tryptophan with all the other reaction substituents and stopped by quenching with perchloric acid (HClO4). The amount of 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan produced during the enzymatic reaction is determined by fluorescence readout. Fluorescence, as determined at 540 nm when excited at 300 nm wavelength, increases proportionally to the 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan formed. Compounds are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates using DMSO followed by a transfer of the dilutions into the assay plate. Fluorescence is measured for each well and the fluorescence at 540 nm wavelength is compared to the fluorescence of the vehicle in place of compound. Inhibitory activities of example compounds with respect to the TPH1 protein are determined by calculating the IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the enzyme activity).

UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biochemical TR-FRET assay: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., a 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 (SEQ ID NO:1) (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 μg/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 μl 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 μl SF9 lysate per 15 μl of diluted RORγ-LBD.

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-κc Band 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 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-Bue 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.

UniProt: P03951
Assay: Factor XIa Assay: The effectiveness of a compound of the present invention as an inhibitor of Coagulation Factor XIa can be determined using a relevant purified serine protease, and an appropriate synthetic substrate. The rate of hydrolysis of the chromogenic or fluorogenic substrate by the relevant serine protease was measured both in the absence and presence of compounds of the present invention. Assays were conducted at rt or at 37° C. Hydrolysis of the substrate resulted in release of amino trifluoromethylcoumarin (AFC), which was monitored spectrofluorometrically by measuring the increase in emission at 510 nm with excitation at 405 nm. A decrease in the rate of fluorescence change in the presence of inhibitor is indicative of enzyme inhibition. Such methods are known to one skilled in the art. The results of this assay are expressed as the inhibitory constant, Ki.Factor XIa determinations were made in 50 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.4 containing 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM CaCl2, and 0.1% PEG 8000 (polyethylene glycol; JT Baker or Fisher Scientific). Determinations were made using purified human Factor XIa at a final concentration of 40 pM (Sekisui Diagnostics) and he synthetic substrate, Z-Gly-Pro-Arg-AFC, TFA salt (Sigma #C0980) at a concentration of 100 μM.Activity assays were performed by diluting a stock solution of substrate at least tenfold to a final concentration ≤0.1 Km into a solution containing enzyme or enzyme equilibrated with inhibitor. Times required to achieve equilibration between enzyme and inhibitor were determined in control experiments. Initial velocities of product formation in the absence (Vo) or presence of inhibitor (Vi) were measured. Assuming competitive inhibition, and that unity is negligible compared Km/[S], [I]/e, and [I]/e (where [S], [I], and e respectively represent the total concentrations, of substrate, inhibitor and enzyme), the equilibrium constant (Ki) for dissociation of the inhibitor from the enzyme can be obtained from the dependence of Vo/Vi on [I] shown in the following equation.

A mixture comprising 100 nM GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) and 100 nM biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 (Lys5,8,12,16) peptide was prepared in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4; 25 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20; 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA); 10 mM dithiothreitol (DTT)). After adding 6 μl of the mixture to the diluent, 6 μl of the pre-mixed AlphaLISA Glutathione Acceptor Beads and AlphaScreen Streptavidin Donor Beads (PerkinElmer, 10 μg/ml in assay buffer, respectively) was added thereto. The samples were incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 minutes (shaking at 300 rpm). Then, the signals were measured with PerkinElmer Envision HTS Multilabel Reader using an alpha screen protocol of PerkinElmer. Each plate contained the negative control in which biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 peptide and GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) were replaced by assay buffer. In the case of using the software GraphPad Prism for calculation, the negative control point was input as a low standard value. The positive control (probe molecule l-BET762 containing protein/peptide mixture) proceeded to pipetting. IC50 value was determined by using GraphPad Prism 3.03 software (or an updated version thereof).

Assay: The screening assay for DYRK1A kinase activity : Each compound was dissolved in DMSO as a 10 mM stock and used to prepare compound source plates. Serial dilution (1:3, 11-point dose-response curves from 10 μM to 0.00016 μM) and compound transfer was performed using the ECHO 550 (Labcyte, Sunnyvale, Calif.) into 1536-well black-walled round bottom plates (Corning).The DYRK1A kinase assay was run using the Ser/Thr 18 peptide Z-lyte assay kit according to manufacturer's instructions (Life Technologiesa Division of Thermo-Fisher). This is a non-radioactive assay using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between coumarin and fluorescein to detect kinase activity which is represented as a ratio of coumarin emission/fluorescein emission.Briefly, recombinant DYRK1A kinase, ATP and Ser/Thr peptide 18 were prepared in 1× Kinase buffer to final concentrations of 0.19 μg/mL, 30 μM, and 4 μM respectively. The mixture was allowed to incubate with the representative compounds for one hour at room temperature. All reactions were performed in duplicate. Unphosphorylated (0% Control) and phosphorylated (100% control) forms of Ser/Thr 18 served as control reactions. Additionally, an 11-point dose-response curve of Staurosporine (1 uM top) was run to serve as a positive compound control.After incubation, Development Reagent A was diluted in Development Buffer then added to the reaction and allowed to further incubate for one hour at room temperature. The plate was read at Ex 400 Em 455 to detect the coumarin signal and Ex 400 Em 520 to measure the signal (EnVision Multilabel Plate Reader, PerkinElmer).The Emission ratio (Em) was calculated as a ratio of the coumarin (C) emission signal (at 445 nm)/Fluorescein (F) emission signal (at 520 nm). The percent phosphorylation was then calculated using the following formula: [1−((Em ratio×F100%)−C100%)/((C0%−C100%)+(Em ratio×(F100%−F0%)))]. Dose-response curves were generated and inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were calculated using non-linear regression curve fit in the Dotmatics' Studies Software (Bishops Stortford, UK).
