| | Evaluation of BRD4 binding inhibition ability |
| Description: | The following experiment was performed to evaluate the ability of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline derivative of the present invention to inhibit the interaction between BRD4 (BD1+BD2) bromodomain, one of BET protein family, and tetraacetylated histone H4 peptide.The compound was serially diluted at the ratio of 1:5 in assay buffer from 10 mM stock in DMSO (initial concentration: 100 μM) on white OptiPlate-384 (PerkinElmer). A mixture comprising 100 nM GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) and 100 nM biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 (Lys5,8,12,16) peptide was prepared in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4; 25 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20; 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA); 10 mM dithiothreitol (DTT)). After adding 6 μl of the mixture to the diluent, 6 μl of the pre-mixed AlphaLISA Glutathione Acceptor Beads and AlphaScreen Streptavidin Donor Beads (PerkinElmer, 10 μg/ml in assay buffer, respectively) was added thereto. The samples were incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 minutes (shaking at 300 rpm). Then, the signals were measured with PerkinElmer Envision HTS Multilabel Reader using an alpha screen protocol of PerkinElmer. Each plate contained the negative control in which biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 peptide and GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) were replaced by assay buffer. In the case of using the software GraphPad Prism for calculation, the negative control point was input as a low standard value. The positive control (probe molecule l-BET762 containing protein/peptide mixture) proceeded to pipetting. IC50 value was determined by using GraphPad Prism 3.03 software (or an updated version thereof). |
