Assay: [35S]GTPgammaS Binding Assay: The human APJ receptor was cloned by polymerase chain reaction and the gene encoding the receptor was subcloned in pFLAG-CMV-3 expression vector (Sigma, Saint Louis, Mo. 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 assay buffer [20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, and 0.1% (w/v) BSA with 200 mM NaCl, 3 μM GDP] and membranes expressing human APJ receptor/well along with WGA PS beads. The reaction was initiated by addition of 0.2 nM [35S]GTPγS (Perkin Elmer Life and Analytical Sciences, Waltham USA) in the absence or presence of various ligands and incubated at RT for 90 min. Nonspecific binding was determined in the presence of 100 μM GTPγS and was always less than 0.2% of total binding. All the results presented are means of several independent experiments and analyzed by non-linear regression methods using commercially available program Prism (GraphPad, San Diego, Calif.)

UniProt: P25106
Assay: Serum Binding Analysis: In order to more properly assess the binding efficacy of the compounds, radioligand binding assays were carried out in the presence of 100% human serum to more accurately reflect the in vivo environment. While observed IC50 values are typically lower than those reported for buffer binding assays, the relevance of the assay for ranking of compound efficacy is enhanced. Target compounds were tested to determine their ability to bind with CXCR7 sites on MCF-7 and/or MDA-MB-435S CXCR7 transfected cells. Efficiency-maxim/zed radioligand binding using filtration protocols as described in Dairaghi D J, et al., HHV8-encoded vMIP-I selectively engages chemokine receptor CCR5. Agonist and antagonist profiles of viral chemokines., J. Biol. Chem. 1999 Jul. 30; 274(31): 21569-74 and Gosling J, et al., Cutting edge: identification of a novel chemokine receptor that binds dendritic cell- and T cell-active chemokines including ELC, SLC, and TECK, J. Immunol. 2000 Mar. 15; 164(6):2851-6 was used.In these assays, MCF-7 and/or MDA-MB-435S cells were interrogated with the target compounds and the ability of these compounds to displace 125 I radiolabeled SDF-1 was assessed using the protocol described in Dairaghi and Gosling. The target compounds were added to the plate to the indicated concentration followed by addition of cells and radiolabeled chemokine (125I SDF-1), both in the following medium (human AB serum with 10 mM HEPES added to stabilize at pH 7.4). All assays were then incubated for 3 hrs at 4° C. with gentle agitation. Following incubation in all binding assays, reactions were aspirated onto PEI-treated GF/B glass filters (Packard) using a cell harvester (Packard) and washed twice (25 mM HEPES, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM CaCl2, 5 mM MgCl2, adjusted to pH 7.1). Scintillant (MicroScint 10, Packard) was added to the wells, and the filters were counted in a Packard Topcount scintillation counter. Data were analyzed and plotted using GraphPad Prism (GraphPad Software).

Assay: Cell-Based Assays of c-Kit Mutant Kinase Activity: The c-Kit mutant D816V inhibitors were assessed using an engineered BaF3-FL KIT D816V or BaF3-FL KIT V560G/D816V cell line. The BaF3-FL KIT D816V cell lines were created by introduction of KIT mutant (D816V) full length constructs that render the cells dependent on the introduced kinase for growth. Inhibitors of c-Kit mutant D816V kinase reduce or eliminate the mediated c-kit mutant D816V kinase activation, resulting in reduced cell proliferation of the BaF3-FL Kit mutant D816V cells. This inhibition is measured by the effect of compound concentration on cell growth to assess IC50 values. BaF3-FL KIT D816V cells were seeded at 1×104 cells per well of a 96 well cell culture plate in 50 μl of cell culture medium of RPMI Medium 1× (Invitrogen #11875-093) supplemented with 10% FBS (Invitrogen #10438), 1% Non Essential Amino Acids (Invitrogen #11140), 1% Penicillin Streptomycin (Invitrogen #15140), 1% L-Glutamine (Invitrogen #25030-081). Compounds were dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 5 mM and were serially diluted 1:3 for a total of eight points and added to the cells to a final maximum concentration of 10 μM in 100 μl cell culture medium (final concentration 0.2% DMSO). Cells were also treated with Dasatinib as a positive control. The cells were incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for three days. ATPlite Buffer (Perkin Elmer #6016739) and substrate were equilibrated to room temperature, and enzyme/substrate Recombinant Firefly Luciferase/D-Luciferin was reconstituted. The cell plates were equilibrated to room temperature for 30 minutes, then lysed by addition of 25 uL per well of the ATPlite Reagent. The plate was mixed for 5 minutes on a plate shaker to lyse the cells. The plates were read on a Tecan Safire using Luminescence protocol modified to read 0.1s per well. The luminescence reading assesses the ATP content, which correlates directly with cell number such that the reading as a function of compound concentration is used to determine the IC50 value.

Target: Nuclear receptor ROR-gamma (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biological Assay for RORgammaT Activity: 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.The final assay mixture was incubated overnight at 4° C., warmed to room temperature and the fluorescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader: (Excitation filter=340 nm; APC emission=665 nm; Europium emission=615 nm; dichroic mirror=D400/D630; delay time=100 tis, integration time=200 tis). IC50 values for test compounds were calculated from the quotient of the fluorescence signal at 665 nm divided by the fluorescence signal at 615 nm.

Assay: Human Recombinant Btk Enzyme Assay: To V-bottom 384-well plates were added test compounds, human recombinant Btk (1 nM, Invitrogen Corporation), fluoresceinated peptide (1.5 μM), ATP (20 μM), and assay buffer (20 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.015% Brij 35 surfactant and 4 mM DTT in 1.6% DMSO), with a final volume of 30 μL. After incubating at room temperature for 60 min, the reaction was terminated by adding 45 μL of 35 mM EDTA to each sample. The reaction mixture was analyzed on the Caliper LABCHIP® 3000 (Caliper, Hopkinton, Mass.) by electrophoretic separation of the fluorescent substrate and phosphorylated product. Inhibition data were calculated by comparison to no enzyme control reactions for 100% inhibition and no inhibitor controls for 0% inhibition. Dose response curves were generated to determine the concentration required for inhibiting 50% of kinase activity (IC50). Compounds were dissolved at 10 mM in DMSO and evaluated at eleven concentrations.

Assay: BINDING ASSAY: The following assay can be used for determination of GPR43 activation. When a GPCR is in its active state, either as a result of ligand binding or constitutive activation, the receptor couples to a G protein and stimulates the release of GDP and subsequent binding of GTP to the G protein. The alpha subunit of the G protein-receptor complex acts as a GTPase and slowly hydrolyses the GTP to GDP, at which point the receptor normally is deactivated. Activated receptors continue to exchange GDP for GTP. The non-hydrolysable GTP analog, [35S]GTPγS, was used to demonstrate enhance binding of [35S]GTPγS to membranes expressing receptors. The assay uses the ability of GPCR to stimulate [35S]GTPγS binding to membranes expressing the relevant receptors. The assay can, therefore, be used in the direct identification method to screen candidate compounds to endogenous or not endogenous GPCR.

Assay: V9103X ADP-Glo Kinase Assay: In a 384-well plate, test compound diluted in assay buffer (1% DMSO final) is mixed with 8His-RIPK2 FL enzyme (final concentration of 8 nM). After 15 minutes of pre-incubation at RT, ATP dissolved in assay buffer is added (final concentration 5 μM). The mixture is incubated for 60 minutes at 37° C. in a humidified incubator. Then, ADP Glo Reagent is added, followed by a 40 minute incubation at rt. Finally, Kinase Detection Reagent is added and the entire mixture is incubated for 40 min at RT. The luminescence signal is measured with an Envision reader to determine the amount of ADP produced. Assay buffer: 25 mM HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinethanesulfonic acid), 0.1% BSA (bovine serum albumin), 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnC12, 50 mM KCl, 0.01% CHAPS (3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate), 10 μM Na3VO4, 1 mM DTT (dithiothreitol), pH 7.5 All plates contain wells with vehicle controls instead of compound (1% DMSO) as reference for the high signal (100% CTL (100% of control), high signal), and wells without enzyme as reference for low signal (0% CTL, low signal). The luminescent signal generated is proportional to the ADP produced and is correlated with enzyme activity. The analysis of the data is performed by the calculation of the percentage of ADP production in the presence of the test compound and RIPK2 as compared to the ADP production in the presence of RIPK2 plus 50 μMGefitinib.

Target: Carbonic anhydrase 2 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P00918
Assay: Human Carbonic Anhydrase-II Inhibition Assay: Human carbonic anhydrase II (hCA-II) inhibition was measured by an absorbance method using 4-nitrophenyl acetate (4-NPA) as its substrate. 4-NPA can be catalyzed by active hCA II via a zinc-hydroxide mechanism. The nitrophenolate in the products can be ionized to generate a bright yellow anion with high absorbance at 348 to 400 nm, as reported in the literature (Armstrong et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1966, 241, 5137-5149). OD340 nm was chosen for detecting hCA II substrate conversion.Assay working solutions were made as follows:Assay buffer: 50 mM MOPS, 33 mM Na2SO4, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5 mg/mL BSA, pH 7.5;Enzyme solution: hCA-II (human, full length) stock solution (1.0 mg/mL in 20 mM HEPES, 50 mM NaCl, pH 7.4), diluted to 2133× final concentration in assay buffer;4-NPA substrate solution: 4-NPA substrate stock solution (250 mM in DMSO, stored at −20° C.), diluted to 50× final concentration in deionized water.Test compounds (10 mM stock in DMSO, 100 μL) were obtained in 96-well sample plates (Corning Costar #3655) and diluted to 0.5 mM. Column-wise serial dilutions were made by transferring 20 μL compound solutions to the next column, from column 3 up to 22. After this, 1.2 μL were transferred to 384 well assay plates (Corning Costar #3701). Then 30 μL of 16 nM hCA II solution was added (8 nM final concentration), mixed five times. 30 μL of 4-NPA substrate solution was added (2.5 mM final concentration), mixed five times. Absorbance at 340 nm was then measured immediately as time zero. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature for 1 hour and then measured as time 1 hour (Perkin Elmer EnVision 2103; Filter: Photometric 340; Light intensity 60%; Number of flashes: 10). IC50 values and Ki values were calculated from these readouts.

Assay: Biochemical Assay for CDK7: The ability of compounds to inhibit CDK7 kinase activity was tested in a TR-FRET assay using 5 nM of CDK7/CycH/MNAT1 obtained from Invitrogen, USA. Test compounds were pre-incubated with the kinase at room temperature for 60 min. After incubation, substrate mix [100 nM Ultra-light MBP (Perkin Elmer, USA) and 1 mM ATP (Sigma)] was added. The above reaction was stopped by the addition of 40 mM EDTA after 60 minutes of kinase reaction. 1 nM Eu-labelled antiphospho-MBP antibody [Perkin Elmer, USA] was added, mixed well and the fluorescence emission at 615 nm and 665 nm [excitation at 340 nm] was measured. The final DMSO concentration in the assay was 1%. For IC50 determination, appropriate concentrations were made by ⅓rd serial dilutions of 10 mM DMSO stock solution of test compound. All the fluorescence measurements were made in a Victor 3 Multilabel Counter [Perkin Elmer, USA]. The IC50 was determined by fitting the dose response data to sigmoidal curve fitting equation using GraphPad Prism software V5. To identify compounds that inhibit CDK7 irreversibly, time depended inhibition studies were carried by pre-incubating compound with the enzyme at three time points (20, 60 and 180 min) and carrying out assay as described above.

Target: Serine/threonine-protein kinase Sgk1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O00141
Assay: Enzymatic Activity Assay: The compounds were tested for serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 (SGK-1) inhibitory activity in a substrate phosphorylation assay designed to measure the ability of the isolated enzyme to catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to serine/threonine residues in a fluorescein-labeled substrate peptide, using recombinant human SGK-1 enzyme produced in a baculovirus system (Biomol, Hamburg, Germany, Cat. No. 4-331). The synthesized fluorescent labeled peptide substrate contained (5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein)-RPRAATF-NH2. The phosphorylated substrate peptide and non-phosphorylated substrate peptide were separated with caliper life science's lab-chip technology based on a micro fluidics method. All fluid flow was established on the chip by applying a vacuum of a few psi to the waste well transporting fluid from various sources through interconnecting channels. Because the phosphoryl group is doubly negatively charged, under the pressure-driven hydrodynamic flow and the voltage-driven flow within the electric field, the fluorescent labeled peptide substrate and its phosphorylation product appear at different times in the detection window to the detection point. Substrate turnover can thus be determined as the ratio of the product peak area and the sum of substrate peak area and product peak area.The enzyme reaction was carried out in a buffer containing 25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 5 mM MgCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, 2 mM DTT, and 0.03% bovine serum albumine. The enzyme was pre-incubated with the test compound for 30 min at 24° C. The kinase reaction was initiated by addition of the substrate mixture containing the peptide substrate (final concentration 1 μM) and ATP (final concentration 10 μM). After 60 min incubation at 37° C., the enzyme reaction was terminated by adding a buffer containing 100 mM Hepes (pH 7.4) and 35 mM EDTA.

UniProt: P37288
Assay: Pharmacological Assay: The human V1a receptor was cloned by RT-PCR from total human liver RNA. The coding sequence was subcloned in an expression vector after sequencing to confirm the identity of the amplified sequence. To demonstrate the affinity of the compounds from the present invention to the human Via receptor binding studies were performed. Cell membranes were prepared from HEK293 cells transiently transfected with the expression vector and grown in 20 liter fermenters with the following protocol. 50 g of cells are re-suspended in 30 ml freshly prepared ice cold Lysis buffer (511 mM HEPES. 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM MgCl adjusted to pH=7.4+complete cocktail of protease inhibitor (Roche Diagnostics)). Homogenized with Polytron for 1 min and sonicated on ice for 2×2 minutes at 80% intensity (Vibracell sonicator). The preparation is centrifuged 20 min at 500 g at 4° C., the pellet is discarded and the supernatant centrifuged 1 hour at 43'000 g at 4° C. (19'000 rpm). The pellet is re-suspended in 12.5 ml Lysis buffer+12.5 ml Sucrose 20% and homogenized using a Polytron for 1-2 min. The protein concentration is determined by the Bradford method and aliquots are stored at −80° C. until use. For binding studies 60 mg Yttrium silicate SPA beads (Amersham) are mixed with an aliquot of membrane in binding buffer (50 mM Tris, 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl, 10 mM MgCl) for 15 minutes with mixing. 50 μl of bead/membrane mixture is then added to each well of a 96 well plate, followed by 54.1 of 4 nM 3H-Vasopressin (American Radiolabeled Chemicals). For total binding measurement 100 μl of binding buffer are added to the respective wells, for non-specific binding 100 μl of 8.4 mM cold vasopressin and for compound testing 100 μl of a serial dilution of each compound in 2% DMSO. The plate is incubated 1 h at room temperature, centrifuged 1 min at 1000 g and counted on a Packard Top-Count. Non-specific binding counts are subtracted from each well and data is normalized to the maximum specific binding set at 100%. To calculate an IC 50 the curve is fitted using a non-linear regression model (XLfit) and the K, is calculated using the Cheng-Prussoff equation.

Assay: Fluorescence Polarization (FP): In a typical experiment the PDE2 inhibitory activity of the compounds of the present invention was determined in accordance with the following experimental method. Rhesus PDE2A3 was amplified from rhesus macaque brain cDNA (Biochain Institute, Hayward, Calif.) using primers based on human PDE2A sequence (accession NM_002599.3) where the forward primer containing a Kozak consensus was 5′-gccaccatggggcaggcatgtggc-3′ and the reverse primer was 5′-tcactcagcatcaaggctgca-3′. Amplification with Easy-A High-Fidelity PCR cloning enzyme (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif.) was 95° C. for 2 minutes followed by thirty three cycles of 95° C. for 40 seconds, 52° C. for 30 seconds, and 72° C. for 2 minutes 48 seconds. Final extension was 72° C. for 7 minutes. The PCR product was TA cloned into pcDNA3.3-TOPO (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) according to standard protocol. A consensus sequence was developed from multiple clones and then deposited into GenBank (EU812167). AD293 cells (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif.) with 70-80% confluency were transiently transfected with rhesus PDE2A3/pcDNA3.3-TOPO using Lipofectamine 2000 according to manufacturer specifications (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.). Cells were harvested 48 hours post-transfection and lysed by sonication (setting 3, 10×5 sec pulses) in a buffer containing 20 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 1 mM EDTA and Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail Tablets (Roche, Indianapolis, Ind.). Lysate was collected by centrifugation at 75,000×g for 20 minutes at 4° C. and supernatant utilized for evaluation of PDE2 activity. The fluorescence polarization assay for cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases was performed using an IMAP® FP kit supplied by Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif. (product # R8139). IMAP® technology has been applied previously to examine the effects of phosphodiesterase inhibitors (Huang, W., et al., J. Biomol Screen, 2002, 7: 215). Assays were performed at room temperature in 384-well microtiter plates with an incubation volume of 20.2 μL. Solutions of test compounds were prepared in DMSO and serially diluted with DMSO to yield 8 μL of each of 10 solutions differing by 3-fold in concentration, at 32 serial dilutions per plate. 100% inhibition is determined using a known PDE2 inhibitor, which can be any compound that is present at 5,000 times its Ki value in the assay described below, such as Bay 60-7550 (Ki-0.2 nM) at 1 μM concentration for 100% inhibition. Bay 60-7550 was obtained from Axxora via Fisher Scientific (cat# ALX-270-421-M025/cat# NC9314773). Put another way, any compound with Ki of 0.2 to about 2 nM could be used at 1 to 10 μM. 0% of inhibition is determined by using DMSO (1% final concentrations).

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.
Measurement: IC50 = 5.36 nM (pChEMBL 8.270000457763672)
