| | hJAK2 Biological Assay |
| Description: | Enzymatic activity of hJAK2 was measured using a LANCE homogeneous time resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) assay that monitors enzyme dependent phosphorylation of a biotinylated serine/threonine peptide substrate (PTK). An increase in the amount of phosphorylated peptide results in an increase in TR-FRET signal. hJAK2 was expressed and purified as full length recombinant proteins. Detection reagents for the assay were purchased from PerkinElmer. hJAK2 enzyme was assayed under initial rate conditions in the presence of 2×Km ATP (30 μM) and 1 μM peptide, 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 0.01% BSA, 0.05% (v/v) DMSO at the following concentration of enzyme: hJAK2 at 0.3 nM. After an assay reaction time of 40 minutes at 25° C., reactions were terminated with EDTA and LANCE Detection Buffer.Amount of phosphorylated peptide was determined by the addition of 20 nM SA-APC and 1 nM europium cryptate labeled anti-phospho PTK monoclonal antibody PY66 and the resulting TR-FRET signal was recorded on an Envision plate reader (Ex: 340 nm; Em: 615/665 nm; 100 μs delay and 200 μs read window). Data was normalized based on a positive (1 μM Staurosporine) and negative (DMSO) controls and IC50 values calculated from the fit of the dose-response curves to a four-parameter equation. All IC50 values represent geometric mean values of a minimum of four determinations. |
