Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Biochemical Assay
Description:  The enzymatic activity of human HPK1 (MAP4K1) was monitored in a biochemical assay in the presence or absence of compounds and using a synthetic peptide substrate. An increase in phosphorylation of the peptide by HPK1 was indicative of its kinase activity.Recombinant HPK1 kinase domain produced via baculovirus infection of insect cells was obtained from Proteros (Proteros Biostructures #PR-0322) and was pre-activated in the presence of 2 mM ATP (Sigma-Aldrich, cat #GE27-2056-01) and 2 mM magnesium chloride for 16 hours at 4° C. The protein reaction mixture was then loaded to a desalting column (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat #89889) to remove excess ATP. HPK1 was eluted with buffer containing 20 mM Tris (2-Amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)propane-1,3-diol) pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM dithiothreitol and 5% glycerol, and was frozen at −80° C. for later use. HPK1 dual phosphorylation was confirmed by mass spectrometry.
