Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  ADP-Glo Format PI3K Assays
Description:  The ADP-Glo format PI3K assays were performed in Proxiplate 384-well plates (Perkin Elmer #6008280). The final assay volume was 2 μl prepared from 1 μl additions of enzyme/PIP2:PS lipid (Invitrogen #PV5100) mixture and 1 μl ATP (provided in kit, Promega #V9101) and test compounds in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, 100 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM EGTA, 2 mM DTT, 0.03% CHAPS). The reaction was initiated by the combination of enzyme/lipid, ATP, and test compounds. The reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes (PI3K Alpha, Beta, Gamma) or 3 hours for PI3K Delta. ADP-Glo (2 μl), followed by Kinase Detection reagent (4 μl), were added to reactions following the initial incubation and allowed to incubate 40 minutes at room temperature. The reaction mixture was analyzed on the TOPCOUNT (Perkin Elmer). Inhibition data were calculated by comparison to no enzyme control reactions for 100% inhibition and vehicle-only reactions for 0% inhibition. The final concentration of enzyme in the assays are PI3K Alpha [0.5 nM], PI3K Beta [2 nM], PI3K Gamma [20 nM], PI3K Delta [0.5 nM]. ATP final concentrations are as follows: for Alpha [10 μM], for Beta [12.5 μM], for Gamma [6.5 μM], for Delta [100 μM]. Lipid final concentration was the same for all enzymes, [25 μM]. Dose response curves were generated to determine the concentration required to inhibit 50% of activity. Compounds were dissolved at 0.12 mM in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and evaluated at eleven concentrations.
