Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  LanthaScreen Assay
Description:  To measure FGFR1 kinase activity, 200 pM His-tagged recombinant human FGFR1 catalytic domain (amino acids 308-731) (Life Technologies Cat. No. PR4660A) was incubated with 100 nM Alexa Fluor 647-Poly-GT Peptide Substrate (Life Technologies Cat. No. PV5836) and ATP in the presence of Mg++, along with test compound in a buffer consisting of 250 mM HEPES, 25 mM MgCl2, 0.05% TritonX-100, pH 7.5, and 2% DMSO. Compounds were typically prepared in a threefold serial dilution in DMSO and added to the assay to give the appropriate final concentration. After 20 minutes incubation at 22° C., an equal volume of 2 nM LanthaScreen Eu-PY20 Antibody (Life Technologies Cat. No. PV5691) and EDTA were added to quench the kinase reaction and start the detection reaction. After an additional 60 minute incubation at 22° C., the reaction was measured using a PerkinElmer EnVision multimode plate reader via TR-FRET dual wavelength detection, and the percent of control (POC) calculated using a ratiometric emission factor. 100 POC is determined using no test compound and 0 POC is determined using no enzyme. The POC values were fit to a 4 parameter logistic curve and the IC50 value is point where the curve crosses 50 POC.To measure FGFR2 kinase activity: 200 pM His-tagged recombinant human FGFR2 cytoplasmic domain (amino acids 403-822), (Life Technologies Cat. No. PR5332A); 20 minutes incubation at 22° C., 60 minute detection incubation at 22° C.To measure FGFR3 kinase activity: 750 pM N-terminal GST-HIS6 fusion protein with a 3C cleavage site recombinant human FGFR3 (amino acids R397-T806) (ProQinase Cat. No. 1068-0000-1); 10 minutes incubation at 22° C., 60 minute detection incubation at 22° C.
