| Description: | Materials:Enzyme: MAT2AhMAT2A: 50 nM, Cepter, 10 mg/mL (234 μM), amino acids 1-395Substrates: 500 uM eachReaction time: 1 hourL-methionine Substrate: Alfa Aesar catalog #J61904ATP Substrate: Alfa Aesar cat #J60336Malachite Green Detection Reagent: Millipore Sigma catalog #MAK307-1KTAssay buffer: 50 mM Tris, pH 7.5/50 mM KCl/10 mM MgCl2/0.01% Brij-35/1 mM DTT/0.1% BGGTemperature: 23° C.Total volume: 20 μLControls:0% inhibition control: DMSO100% inhibition control: No enzymeProcedure:5 μL of 3× final concentration test compounds in DMSO or DMSO were transferred to the appropriate wells of a microtiter plate and the plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. 5 μL of 3× final concentration MAT2A enzyme in assay buffer or assay buffer alone was transferred to the appropriate wells and the plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes and then 5 μL of 3× the L-methionine and ATP substrate mixture in assay buffer was transferred to all the test wells. The plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. 5 μL of malachite green detection reagent was added to all the test wells and the plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and then incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. The plate was read for absorbance at 620 nm on a plate reader (e.g., Infinite M1000). The high control (DMSO) with high absorbance represents no inhibition of enzymatic reaction while the low control (no enzyme) with low absorbance represents full inhibition of enzymatic reaction. |
