| | LSD1 TR-FRET Assay |
| Description: | LSD1 demethylase reactions were carried out in 50 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween-20, and 0.1 mg/mL BSA. All enzymatic reactions were performed for 50 minutes at room temperature in a 10-μL volume. Five microliters of 8 μM biotinylated H3K4me1 peptide solution was added to each well of a black 384 well, clear-bottom assay plate containing 80 nL compound (final concentration of 0.8% DMSO and 4 μM substrate). Reactions were initiated by the addition of a mixture containing 20 nM LSD1 and 80 nM FAD (5 μL). LSD1 and FAD final concentrations were 10 and 40 nM, respectively. Enzyme activity was stopped by the addition of 90 μL of high salt buffer consisting of 50 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween-20, and 0.1 mg/mL BSA. Ten microliters of the quenched reaction mixtures were transferred to a black 384 well ProxiPlate. Ten microliters of detection mixture was added to the ProxiPlate, Europium-labeled antibody and Streptavidin APC were used at final concentrations of 0.3 nM and 200 nM, respectively (total assay volume of 20 μL). Capture of the product peptide by the anti-H3K4me0 antibody and Streptavidin APC was allowed to proceed for 60 min at room temperature before measuring the TR-FRET signal. Plates were read on a Perkin Elmer EnVision. Percent inhibition was calculated using Max (no inhibitor) and Min (quenched with stop buffer) controls and inhibition curves plotted to determine IC50 values. |
