Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Vps34 Biochemical Assay
Description:  Dilution series of compounds of the invention were prepared in DMSO at 100 times the final assay concentration (n1=n0/3 in 10 points). The compounds were further diluted to 4 times the assay concentration in assay buffer (Life technologies buffer Q, PV5125, diluted 5 times supplemented with 2 mM DTT and 2 mM MnCl2). 2.5 μl of the diluted compounds were added to a 384 well assay plate followed by 2.5 μl of 16.5 nM Vps34 enzyme (Life technologies, PV5126). Enzyme and compounds were pre-incubated at rt for 15 min. Then 5 μl of substrate mix containing 20 μM ATP (Life technologies, PV3227) and 200 μM PI:PS substrate (Life technologies, PV5122) in assay buffer was added to the wells containing compound and enzyme. Mixing was performed by pipetting several times. The reaction was incubated at room temperature for 1 h. Then 5 μl stop-detection mix, prepared as described in the Adapta kinase assay kit instructions (Life technologies, PV5099) containing Adapta Eu-anti-ADP antibody (2.3 nM), Alexa Fluor 647 ADP tracer (9 nM) and EDTA (30 mM) in TR-FRET buffer, was added to quench the reaction. Mixing was performed by pipetting several times. The assay plate was then incubated at room temperature for 30 min and read with Artemis micro plate reader. Percent inhibition of the compounds as compared to DMSO treated control samples was calculated. By the use of Dotmatics software compound concentration versus percent inhibition was fitted to generate IC50 values.
