UniProt: Q06124
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 (PIT) 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.</p><p id="p-0381" num="0414">More specifically, the phosphatase reactions were performed at room temperature in 96-well black polystyrene plate, flat bottom, low flange, non-binding surface (Corning, Cat #3575) using a final reaction volume of 50 μl and the following assay buffer conditions: 60 mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 75 mM NaCl, 75 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA 0.005% Brij-35, 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 0.25 nM of SHP2 was incubated with of 0.5 μM of peptide IRSI_psf 1172(dPEG8)pY1222 (sequence: H2N LN(pY)IDLDLV(dPEG8)LST(pY)ASINFQK-amide). After 30-60 minutes incubation at 25° C., the surrogate substrate DiFMUP (Invitrogen, cat #D6567, 100 μM final) was added to the reaction and the conversion of DiFMUP to 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxyl-4-methylcoumarin (DiFMU) was monitored continuously for 10 minutes with excitation at 355 nm and emission at 460 nm using a microplate reader (PolarStar, BMG). The inhibitor dose response curves were analyzed using normalized IC50 regression curve fitting with control based normalization.

Target: Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60885
Assay: Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) Assay: The binding of compounds to bromodomain BRD4 (44-168), BRD4 (333-460), and BRD4 (1-477 or 44-460) was assessed using a time resolved fluorescent resonance energy transfer binding assay (1), that measures the binding of a fluorescently labeled probe molecule to the bromodomain protein. The bromodomain protein, fluorescent probe molecule (either a biotinylated histone peptide or a fluorescently labeled small molecule), and dose-responded test compound are incubated together to reach thermodynamic equilibrium. In the absence of a test compound, the bromodomain and small molecule are bound, resulting in a high fluorescent signal. In the presence of a sufficient concentration of inhibitor, this intercation is disrupted resulting in a lost of fluorescent resonance energy transfer.All assay components were dissolved in buffer composition 20 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM DTT, 0.005% Tween 20, and 100 ug/ml BSA for BRD4 (1-477 and 44-460). The final concentrations of the bromodomain proteins are 1.6 nM BRD4(44-168), 1 nM BRD4(333-460), and 1 nM BRD4(1-477 or 44-460), and the fluorescent probe molecule is 100 nM, 50 nM, and 7.5 nM respectively. All proteins were biotinylated. A streptavidin labeled with terbium cryptate (Cisbio SA-Tb) was used as detection, and pre-mixed with the bromodomain protein at a final concentration of 0.2 nM. In some instances for BRD4 (44-460), anti-His terbium cryptate was used as a detection. 7.5 nl of dose-responded test compound or dmso vehicle (0.0375%) was pre-spotted in a black Corning 384 well plate and 10 ul each of bromodomain/detection reagent and fluorescent small molecule solution were added to the plate, and the reaction incubated for 60 min at room temperature. Plates were then read on EnVision plate reader, (λex=340 nm, acceptor λEm=520 nm, and donor λEm=615 nm, LANCE D400 mirror). Time resolved fluorescnce intensity measurements were made at both emissions, and the ratio of acceptor/donor was calculated and used for data analysis.

Target: Menin (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O00255
Assay: Fluorescence Polarization (FP) Competitive Binding Assay: A fluorescence polarization (FP) competitive binding assay was used to determine the binding affinities of representative menin inhibitors. A FAM labeled fluorescent probe was designed and synthesized based on a MLL1 peptide (FAM-MM2). Equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) value of FAM-MM2 to menin protein was determined from protein saturation experiments by monitoring the total fluorescence polarization of mixtures composed with the fluorescent probe at a fixed concentration and the protein with increasing concentrations up to full saturation. Serial dilutions of the protein were mixed with FAM-MM2 to a final volume of 200 μl in the assay buffer (PBS with 0.02% Bovine γ-Globulin and 4% DMSO. 0.01% Triton X-100 was added right before assays). Final FAM-MM2 concentration was 2 nM. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes with gentle shaking to assure equilibrium. FP values in millipolarization units (mP) were measured using the Infinite M-1000 plate reader (Tecan U.S., Research Triangle Park, N.C.) in Microfluor 1 96-well, black, v-bottom plates (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Mash.) at an excitation wavelength of 485 nm and an emission wavelength of 530 nm. Kd value of FAM-MM2, which was calculated by fitting the sigmoidal dose-dependent FP increases as a function of protein concentrations using Graphpad Prism 6.0 software (Graphpad Software, San Diego, Calif.), is determined as 1.4 nM.

Target: Tyrosine-protein kinase ITK/TSK (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q08881
Assay: Kinase Inhibition Assay: The in vitro kinase assays were performed at Nanosyn (Santa Clara, Calif.) utilizing microfluidic detection technology. The test compounds were serially pre-diluted in DMSO and added, by the acoustic dispensing (Labcyte 550), directly to 384 well assay plates into 10 uL of a buffer with enzyme (ITK, TXK, BTK or TEC) comprising: 100 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Triton X-100 and the enzyme. Final DMSO concentration was maintained at 1% in all samples, including the controls. The reactions were initiated by addition of ATP (1 mM final concentration) and the fluorescently labeled peptide substrate to a final concentration of 1 uM, and incubated for 3 hours at 25° C. Following incubation, the reactions were quenched by addition of 40 μL of termination buffer (100 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 0.01% Triton X-100, 50 mM EDTA). Terminated plates were analyzed using Caliper LabChip 3000 microfluidic electrophoresis instrument (Caliper Life Sciences/Perkin Elmer). The enzymatic modification of the peptide substrate (phosphorylation) results in a change of net charge enabling electrophoretic separation of product from substrate. As substrate and product are separated by electrophoresis, two peaks of fluorescence are observed. Change in the relative fluorescence intensity of the substrate and product peaks was the parameter measured, reflecting enzyme activity. In the presence of inhibitor, the ratio between product and substrate is altered: signal of the product decreases, while the signal of the substrate increases. Activity in each test sample was determined as the product to sum ratio (PSR): P/(S+P), where P is the peak height of the product and S is the peak height of the FAM-cAMP substrate. For each compound, enzyme activity was measured at 12 concentrations spaced by 3× dilution intervals. Negative control samples (0%-inhibition in the absence of inhibitor, DMSO only) and positive control samples (100%-inhibition, in the absence of enzyme or in the presence of control inhibitor) were assembled in replicates of four and were used to calculate %-inhibition values in the presence of compounds. Percent inhibition (Pinh) was determined using the following equation: Pinh=(PSR0%−PSRinh)/(PSR0%−PSR100%)*100, where PSRinh is the product sum ratio in the presence of inhibitor, PSR0% is the product sum ratio in the absence of inhibitor and PSR100% is the product sum ratio in 100%-inhibition control samples. To determine IC50 values, the inhibition curves (Pinh versus inhibitor concentration) were fitted by 4 parameter sigmoid dose-response model using XLfit software (IDBS).

Assay: In Vitro Assay: The effectiveness of compounds of the present invention as ROCK inhibitors can be determined in a 30 μL assay containing 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 20 mM MgCl2, 0.015% Brij-35, 4 mM DTT, 5 μM ATP and 1.5 μM peptide substrate (FITC-AHA-AKRRRLSSLRA-OH). Compounds were dissolved in DMSO so that the final concentration of DMSO was <2%, and the reaction was initiated with Rho kinase variants. After incubation, the reaction was terminated by the addition of EDTA and the phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated peptides separated using a LABCHIP® 3000 Reader (Caliper Life Sciences). Controls consisted of assays that did not contain compound, and backgrounds consisted of assays that contained enzyme and substrate but had EDTA from the beginning of the reaction to inhibit kinase activity. Compounds were tested in dose-response format, and the inhibition of kinase activity was calculated at each concentration of compound. The inhibition data were fit using a curve-fitting program to determine the IC50; i.e., the concentration of compound required to inhibit 50% of kinase activity.

UniProt: Q8TCW9
Assay: Biological Assay: Prokineticin receptor 1 (PKR1) antagonists may be functionally assessed by measurement of change in intracellular calcium levels induced by Gq mediated increase in inositol triphosphate (IP3) levels. The ability of a compound to block the intracellular release of calcium mediated by PK1 in RBL2H3 cells expressing human PKR1 receptors is determined as a measure of the compound's antagonist activity in vitro.Approximately 10,000 cells per assay well are seeded in normal culture medium in a 384 well plate (Corning). Twenty-four hours after seeding, the cells are loaded with a calcium sensitive fluorescent dye by replacing the culture medium with assay buffer (1× Hanks buffered saline, 25 mM HEPES, 0.1% w/v fatty acid free BSA (bovine serum albumin), pH 7.4) containing 1 mM probenecid and 1× Calcium 5 Reagent (Molecular Devices). Cells are incubated at 37° C. for 1 hour to allow for dye uptake.To test for antagonist activity, test compounds at a final concentration range between 0.32 nM-10 μM (diluted in assay buffer) are added to the assay wells and allowed to incubate for 10 minutes prior to stimulation with PK1. After incubation with test compounds the assay plate is placed in a FLIPR Tetra (Molecular Devices) and PK1 (diluted in assay buffer) is added at the determined EC80 concentration (final). Ligand-dependent changes in intracellular calcium levels are determined by measuring changes in fluorescence of the dye at 525 nM following excitation at 485 nM.

Assay: TR-FRET PI3K Beta Assay: Class I PI3K isoforms were expressed and purified as heterodimeric recombinant proteins. All assay reagents and buffers for the TR-FRET assay were purchased from Millipore. PI3K isoforms were assayed under initial rate conditions in the presence of 25 mM Hepes (pH 7.4), and 2× Km ATP (75-500 μM), 2 μM PIP2, 5% glycerol, 5 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 0.05% (v/v) Chaps, 1 mM dithiothreitol, and 1% (v/v) DMSO at the following concentrations for each isoform: PI3Kα, PI3Kβ, and PI3Kδ between 25 and 50 μM, and PI3Kγ at 2 nM. The compounds were added to the assay solution and incubated for 30 minutes at 25° C. The reactions were terminated with a final concentration of 10 mM EDTA, 10 nM labeled-PIP3, and 35 nM Europium labeled GRP-1 detector protein before reading TR-FRET on an Envision plate reader (Ex: 340 nm; Em: 615/665 nm; 100 μs delay and 500 μs read window).The results were normalized based on positive (1 μM wortmanin) and negative (DMSO) controls, and the IC50 values for PI3K α, β, δ, and γ were calculated from the fit of the dose-response curves to a four-parameter equation. These assays generally produced results within 3-fold of the reported mean. As shown in Table 1, the compounds provided herein are inhibitors of PI3Kβ.

Assay: Receptor Selection and Amplification (R-SAT) Assays: R-SAT's were generally performed with 50 ng/well of receptor and 20 ng/well of β-galactosidase plasmid DNA. All receptor constructs used were in the pSI mammalian expression vector (Promega Inc) as described previously. The 5-HT2A receptor gene was amplified by nested PCR (polymerase chain reaction) from brain cDNA using the oligodcoxynuclcotides based on the published sequence (Saltzman et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 1991, 181, 1469). For large-scale transfections, cells were transfected for 12-16 h, then trypsinized and frozen in DMSO. Frozen cells were later thawed, plated at 10,000-40,000 cells per well of a 96 well plate that contained a compound according to Formula (I). To run functional antagonist assays, cells and compounds were additionally combined with a fixed concentration (approximately 3× the previously determined EC50) of an agonist (usually 5-CT) at 5-HT2A or other appropriate agonists for other receptors. With both methods, cells were then grown in a humidified atmosphere with 5% ambient CO2 for five days. Media was then removed from the plates and marker gene activity was measured by the addition of the b-galactosidase substrate o-nitrophenyl b-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG, in PBS with 5% NP-40). The resulting colorimetric reaction was measured in a spectrophotometric plate reader (Titertek Inc.) at 420 nM. All data were analyzed using the computer program XLFit (IDBSm). Efficacy is the percent maximal repression compared to repression by a control compound (ritanserin in the case of 5-HT2A). pIC50 is the negative of the log(IC50), where IC50 is the calculated concentration in molar that produces 50% maximal repression. The compounds as provided herein were assayed as described herein. Compounds of Formulas (I) and (II), demonstrated high inhibition of the 5-HT2A receptor activity as shown in the table below. This data below indicates that compounds as provide herein may be useful as pharmaceutical agents.

UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biochemical TR-FRET Assay: 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: Enzyme Inhibition Assay: Method 2: This method follows the same steps as Method 1 above, but utilises a higher concentration of the p38 MAPKα protein (2.5 uL of 200 ng/mL protein instead of 2.5 uL of 80 ng/mL protein) for mixing with the test compound (tested at either 1 ug/mL, 0.1 ug/mL, 0.01 ug/mL or 0.001 ug/mL). Method 1: The inhibitory activities of test compounds against the p38 MAPKα isoform (MAPK14: Invitrogen) are evaluated indirectly by determining the level of activation\phosphorylation of the down-stream molecule, MAPKAP-K2. The p38 MAPKα protein (80 ng/mL, 2.5 uL) is mixed with the test compound (2.5 uL of either 4 ug/mL, 0.4 ug/mL, 0.04 ug/mL or 0.004 ug/mL) for 2 hr at RT. The mix solution (2.5 uL) of the p38a inactive target MAPKAP-K2 (Invitrogen, 600 ng/mL) and FRET peptide (8 uM; a phosphorylation target for MAPKAP-K2) is then added, then the kinase reaction is initiated by adding ATP (40 uM, 2.5 uL). The mixture is incubated for 1 hr at RT. Development reagent (protease, 5 uL) is added for 1 hr prior to detection in a fluorescence microplate reader (Vanoskan Flash, ThermoFisher Scientific).

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: 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).
