Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  CDK4 Inhibition Assay
Description:  Test compounds (compound of the present invention, reference compound Abemaciclib, and comparative example compounds) were dissolved in DMSO at 10 mM. 45 μL of compound solution was transfer into a 384-well compound source plate (LABCYTE cat #P-05525) and serially diluted at 1:3 ratio to create a 12-point dilution. The same volume of DMSO was adopted as high control (HC). 20 nL of compound solution in DMSO (diluted) were dispensed into anew 384-well assay plate by Echo 550. CDK4 protein (0.48 nM, CARNA BIOSCIENCE, cat #04-105), florescent labeled substrate FLPeptide34 (2 M, PerkinElmer, cat #760643) was prepared in kinase assay buffer (100 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 0.05% Brij-35, 0.5 mM DTT and 0.1 mg/ml BSA). 15 μL of kinase assay buffer containing CDK4 protein and substrate was transferred to assay plate and incubate at rt for 30 minutes. Kinase assay buffer supplemented with substrate peptides was employed as low control (LC) to monitor the background. 400 M ATP was prepared in kinase assay buffer containing and 15 μL of ATP solution was added to each well to start the reaction. The assay plate was incubated at 25° C. for 90 minutes and the reaction was stopped by adding 40 μL of 0.5 M EDTA.
