Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  TAM Enzymatic Assay
Description:  The assay buffer contained 50 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% NP-40 and 2 mM DTT. 0.5 ul test compounds dissolved in DMSO were transferred from compound plates to white 384-well assay plates (Greiner LUMITRAC plates). The final concentration of DMSO was 2.5%. Enzyme solutions of 13.8 nM AXL (Life Technologies, PV4275), or 4.1 nM c-MER (Life Technologies, PV4112), or 0.366 nM TYRO3 (Life Technologies, PR7480A) were prepared in assay buffer. A 1 mM stock solution of peptide substrate Biotin-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-amide (Quality Controlled Biochemicals, MA) dissolved in DMSO was diluted to 1 uM in assay buffer containing 100 uM ATP (for AXL and c-MER assays) or 20 uM ATP (for TYRO3 assay). 10 ul enzyme solution (or assay buffer for the enzyme blank) was added to the appropriate wells in each plate, and then 10 ul/well substrate solution was added to initiate the reaction. The plate was protected from light and incubated at room temperature for 60 min. The reaction was stopped by adding 10 ul detection solution containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.8, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% BSA, 45 mM EDTA, 180 nM SA-APC (Perkin Elmer, CR130-100) and 3 nM Eu-W1024 anti-phosphotyrosine PY20 (Perkin Elmer, AD0067). The plate was incubated for 1 h at room temperature, and HTRF (homogenous time resolved fluorescence) signal was measured on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG labtech).
