Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Assay of Co-Activator Recruitment by TR-FRET
Description:  Specifically, in one embodiment the aforementioned assay was performed as outlined below. The assay was carried out in black polystyrene, 384-well plates in a total assay volume of 50.5 μL. The assay buffer contained 50 mM TRIS HCL pH 7.5, 1 mM NaCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, and 5 mM dithiothreitol. The final concentration of reagents was 6.3 nM RORC2 LBD, 200 nM SRC1-2, 50 nM streptavidin APC, 1 nM Europium-labeled anti-His antibody, and varying concentrations of compounds such that final concentration of DMSO is 1% (v/v). The assay steps were: (1) dispensing 500 μL compound at 100× final concentration in DMSO (test wells) or DMSO only (control wells for no inhibition); and (2) dispensing 50 μL mixture of the other assay components including receptor (test wells) or excluding receptor (control wells for maximal inhibition). Assay mixtures were incubated are room temperature for 3 hr and read in EnVision 2100 Multilabel Reader (PerkinElmer Life Sciences) at Excitation Filter 320, Emission Europium Filter 615, Emission APC Filter 665, Dichroic Mirror D400/D630. TR-FRET signal was determined by calculating the ratio of 665 nm by 615 nm and IC50 values of compounds of the invention (Table 1) were determined by the non-linear regression analysis of dose response curves.
