Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  HTRF Enzyme Activity Assay
Description:  CDK2/Cyclin E1 enzyme activity assays utilize full-length human CDK2 co-expressed as N-terminal GST-tagged protein with FLAG-Cyclin E1 in a baculovirus expression system (Carna Product Number 04-165). Assays are conducted in white 384-well polystyrene plates in a final reaction volume of 8 μL. CDK2/Cyclin E1 (0.25 nM) is incubated with compounds (40 nL serially diluted in DMSO) in the presence of ATP (50 μM or 1 mM) and 50 nM ULight -labeled eIF4E-binding protein 1 (THR37/46) peptide (PerkinElmer) in assay buffer (containing 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 1 mM EGTA, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM DTT, 0.05 mg/ml BSA, and 0.01% Tween 20) for 60 minutes at room temperature. The reactions are stopped by the addition of EDTA and Europium-labeled anti-phospho-4E-BP 1 antibody (PerkinElmer), for a final concentration of 15 mM and 1.5 nM, respectively. HTRF signals are read after 1 hour at room temperature on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG Labtech).
