Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Radiometric Filter-Binding Assay
Description:  For determination of ABL kinase activity, the radiometric filter-binding assay was used. The assay was performed by mixing 10 μL of the compound pre-diluted with 10 μL of ATP (20 M ATP with 0.1 μCi [γ-33P]-ATP) with the phospho-acceptor peptide poly[Ala6Glu2LysHBr5Tyr1]=polyAEKY) in 20 mM Tris/HCl pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01 mM Na3VO4, 50 mM NaCl. 10 μL of enzyme (ranging between 5 nM to 20 nM) was added to initiate the reaction. Pre-incubation of enzyme with compounds (when stated) was performed by exposing the enzyme to compounds prior to addition of the substrate mixture (ATP and/or peptide substrate). After 15 min at room temperature, the reaction was stopped by the addition of 50 μL 125 mM EDTA, and the peptide-bound 33P separated on filter-plates (PVDF or MAIP; Millipore, Volketswil, Switzerland) prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. Filter-plates were washed 3× with 0.5% H3PO4, followed by addition of 30 μL scintillation cocktail (Microscint, Perkin Elmer) per well and then analysed in a TopCount NXT scintillation counter (Perkin Elmer).
