Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzyme Assay
Description:  The enzyme reaction substrate Poly(Glu, Tyr)4:1 was diluted with potassium-free PBS (10 mM sodium phosphate buffer, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2-7.4) to 20 μg/ml and microwell plate was coated with 125 ml/well mixture. The reaction was carried out at 37° C. for 12-16 h. Then the liquid was discarded and the microwell plate was washed with 200 ml/well T-PBS (PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20) three times, 5 minutes each. The microwell plate was dried for 1-2 hours at 37° C. oven. Each well was added with reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 50 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.2 mM Na3VO4, 1 mM DTT) diluted ATP solution (50 mL) whose final concentration is 5 μM. Drug was diluted with 1% DMSO to a suitable concentration. 10 μl/well of drug was added and then 40 μl reaction buffer diluted VEGFR-2 tyrosine kinase protein was added. The microwell plate was placed into a shaker (100 rpm) and the reaction was carried out at 37° C. for 1 h. The microwell plate was washed with T-PBS three times. Three enzyme-free control wells and corresponding concentration of DMSO control wells were required for each experiment. 100 ml of primary antibody PY99 (p-Tyr (PY99), Cell Signaling Technology, diluted with T-PBS containing 5 mg/ml BSA, 1:1000 dilution) was added to each well and the plate was placed into a shaker to react for 0.5 h at 37° C. The plate was washed with T-PBS three times. 100 ml of secondary antibody horseradish peroxidase-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (diluted with T-PBS containing 5 mg/ml BSA, 1:2000 dilution) was added to each well and the plate was placed into a shaker to react for 0.5 h at 37° C. The plate was washed with T-PBS three times. 100 ml of 2 mg/ml of OPD developing solution (diluted with 0.1 M citric acid-sodium citrate buffer containing 0.03% of H2O2 (pH=5.4)) was added to each well and the reaction was carried out at 25° C. in the dark for 1-10 minutes. OPD was dissolved under ultrasound and developing solution was freshly prepared. 50 ml of 2 M H2SO4 was added to each well to quench the reaction and OD value was measured by wavelength tunable microplate reader SPECTRA MAX 190. Wavelength was 490 nm.
