Target: Tryptophan 5-hydroxylase 1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
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: P56373
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: Determination of the IC50 for Plasma Kallikrein: Plasma kallikrein inhibitory activity in vitro was determined using standard published methods (see e.g. Johansen et al., Int. J. Tiss. Reac. 1986, 8, 185; Shori et al., Biochem. Pharmacol., 1992, 43, 1209; Sturzebecher et al., Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler, 1992, 373, 1025). Human plasma kallikrein (Protogen) was incubated at 25° C. with the fluorogenic substrate H-DPro-Phe-Arg-AFC and various concentrations of the test compound. Residual enzyme activity (initial rate of reaction) was determined by measuring the change in optical absorbance at 410 nm and the IC50 value for the test compound was determined.

Assay: NAMPT Enzyme Assay: To measure the inhibition of NAMPT activity hNAMPT protein stock and anti 6His-Tb (Cisbio; Cat. No. 61HISTLB) is diluted to 3× final concentration with assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 1 mM DTT, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.005% Tween 20). To this solution is added a test compound or vehicle control (DMSO) and BodiPY ligand (structure below). The plate is shaken for 1-2 min sealed and incubated for 1 h at rt in the dark. The TR-FRET signal is measured using BMG Pherastar (Lanthascreen protocol on BMG Pherastar). Excitation was carried out at 320 nm, and the ratio of emission of BodiPY (520 nm) to terbium (486 nm) was determined. Concentration response curves are generated by calculating the excitation increase in test compound-treated samples relative to DMSO-treated controls.For the assay method described above, test compound percent inhibition values at a single concentration are calculated relative to control (DMSO) treated samples. Compound concentration response curves are fitted to generate IC50 values from those curves. One skilled in the art will appreciate that these values generated either as percentage inhibition at a single concentration or IC50 values are subject to experimental variation.

Target: Receptor-type tyrosine-protein kinase FLT3 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P36888
Assay: In Vitro Kinase Assay: The inhibition of the FLT3 kinase activity was measured with homogeneous, time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assays. Recombinant proteins containing the FLT3 kinase domain were purchased from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, Calif., USA). Optimal enzyme, ATP, and substrate concentrations were established with the HTRF KinEASE kit (Cisbio, France) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The FLT3 enzymes were mixed with serially diluted compounds and peptide substrates in a kinase reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES (pH 7.0), 500 μM ATP, 0.1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% bovine serum albumin (BSA), and 0.02% NaN3). Ten microliters of the total volume of the kinase reaction were added to the wells of a 96-well assay plate. The kinase reactions were incubated for 30 min at 25° C. For the detection of the phospho-substrate, the Eu3b-Cryptate-conjugated mouse monoclonal antibody (PT66) and the streptavidin-XL665 (SA-XL) were added, and the reactions were then incubated for 1 hour at 25° C. The signal was measured on an Victor X5 multi-label reader (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass., USA). The curve was fitted by nonlinear regression, and the IC50 was calculated using GraphPad Prism 5.01 (GraphPad, La Jolla, Calif., USA).

Assay: FLIPR Assay (15 minutes): The IC50 (effective concentration) of compounds on the human TRPA1 channel was determined using a FLIPR Tetra instrument. CHO cells expressing TRPA1 were plated into 384-well plates, incubated overnight at 37° C., and loaded with BD calcium indicator dye for 1 hr at 37° C. followed by 15 minutes at room temperature. The assay buffer was Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) containing 20 mM HEPES (pH readjusted to 7.4) along with 0.02% BSA.Following dye load and plate cool down, compounds were added to the cells using FLIPR Tetra. Plates were then incubated with compounds for 10 minutes or 90 minutes at room temperature prior to adding agonist. Following this incubation, about an EC50 concentration of cinnamaldehyde (75) was added to active the channels and block of cinnamaldehyde induced calcium influx was measured.The IC50 results were fit with a standard Hill function, keeping the Hill coefficient (n) fixed to 1.5. Fixing the Hill coefficient will generally reduce variability of the IC50 determination. The IC50 results were individually examined to make sure the MIN and MAX points were set correctly prior to validation of the results.

USA) in-house at Amgen. A GTPγS binding assay was performed on membranes prepared from CHO cells stably expressing human APJ receptor. The optimum experimental conditions for the concentrations of GDP, MgCl2, and NaCl in the assay buffer were initially determined. The assay was performed in 9 μL assay buffer [20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 100 mM NaCl and 0.1% (w/v) BSA], 1 μL of diluted test compound (starting with 0.75 mM, 2-fold serial dilution with DMSO, total 22 points), 10 μL of 18 μM GDP (final concentration of 3 μM GDP), 20 μL of 0.25 μg/mL membrane protein expressing human APJ receptor captured with WGA PS beads (final concentration of 5 μg per well), and 20 μL of 0.3 nM [35S]GTPγS (final concentration is 0.1 nM [35S]GTPγS)(Perkin Elmer Life and Analytical Sciences, Waltham USA). One column of the plate was 1 μL of DMSO as background and another column of the plate was 1 μL of 180 μM Pyr-Apelin-13 which was used as control at a final concentration of 3 μM. Incubation was at RT for 90 min and the microplate was read using a ViewLux ultra HTS Microplate Imager (PerkinElmer, Inc.). All the results presented are means of several independent experiments and analyzed by non-linear regression methods using the commercially available program Prism (GraphPad, San Diego, Calif.) providing the EC50 values detailed in Table 40.

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: Measurement of IC50 of Eckol Derivatives Against Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase: Enzyme activities were determined at room temperature. Ultraviolet absorbance was measured spectrophotometrically by a modification of a previously described method (Ellmans et al., Biochemical Pharmacology, 88-95, 1961). To each cuvette was added DTNB (900 μL of 5.55 mM DTNB in 50-mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4) followed by the addition of substrate (25 μL of a buffer of substrate of varying concentration). The enzymatic reaction was initiated at 25° C. by the addition of enzyme (75 μL of acetylcholinesterase or butyrylcholinesterase, appropriately diluted in 50 mM, pH 7.4, potassium phosphate buffer to give 0.005 unit), and absorbance change was monitored at 412 nm for 60 s. The slope of the absorbance change is the initial rate of an enzyme reaction. Effect of inhibition for each sample was calculated as inhibition (%)=100 (ST/CT)×100 where CT is the initial rate for a control and ST is the initial rate of a sample.

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: In Vitro Activity Assay: The assay used to measure the in vitro activity of MGL is adapted from the assay used for another serine hydrolase (FAAH) described in Wilson et al., 2003 (A high-throughput-compatible assay for determining the activity of fatty acid amide hydrolase. Wilson S J, Lovenberg T W, Barbier A J. Anal Biochem. 2003 Jul. 15; 318(2):270-5). The assay consists of combining endogenously expressed MGL from HeLa cells with test compounds, adding [glycerol-1,3-3H]-oleoyl glycerol, incubating for one hour, and then measuring the amount of cleaved [1,3-3H]-glycerol that passes through an activated carbon filter. The amount of cleaved, tritiated glycerol passing through the carbon filter is proportional to the activity of the MGL enzyme in a particular well/test condition. Standard conditions for this assay combine 300 nM [Glycerol-1,3-3H]-oleoyl glycerol with human MGL from HeLa cells and test compounds for one hour, after which the reaction is filtered through activated carbon and tritium is measured in the flow through. The test compound concentration in screening mode is 10 uM, while the highest compound concentration in IC50 assays is determined empirically.

Assay: 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).

Assay: cAMP HTRF Assay to Determine the Activity of hPDE4B1: The inhibiting effect of the compounds on the enzyme activity of human PDE4B1 was measured by the quantification of 5′-adenosine monophosphate (5′-AMP), which is formed from 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Human recombinant enzyme, expressed in Sf9 cells, and the HTRF (homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence) detection method were used in the assay.The test compound or water (control) was mixed with the human recombinant PDE4B1 enzyme (4.8 U) in a buffer consisting of 44.4 mM tris-HCl, 5.28 mM MgCl2, 2.64 mM DTT and 0.044% Tween 20 (pH 7.8). After adding the cAMP enzyme substrate (final concentration 40 nM), the mixture was incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then a fluorescence acceptor (Dye2 marked with cAMP), a fluorescence donor (anti-cAMP antibody marked with a europium cryptate) and the non-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine; final concentration 1 mM) were added. After 60 min the fluorescence transfer, which correlates with the amount of remaining cAMP, was measured with a microplate reader (Rubystar, BMG) at λex=337 nm, λem=620 nm and λem=665 nm. The enzyme activity was calculated from the quotient formed from the measured signal at 665 nm and that at 620 nm. The result was expressed as the percentage inhibition of enzyme activity of the control (without PDE4 inhibitor). The enzyme was omitted for measurement of the basal control.[N. Saldou et al., Comparison of recombinant human PDE4 isoforms: interaction with substrate and inhibitors, Cell. Signal. Vol. 10, No. 6, 427-440, 1998].

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.
