| | Inhibitory Activity on mTOR Kinase |
| Description: | The model for screening the inhibitory activity of the molecules on mTOR was developed with the LANTHASCREEN technology (Lifetechnologies). The reaction substrate (400 nM final), the serial dilutions of the molecules (1% DMSO final) and the enzyme (<1 nM) are successively added to a 384-well plate (Corning 4514) in a final volume of 10 μL per well. After 1 hour of reaction at room temperature, 10 μL of a solution containing 10 mM final of EDTA and 2 nM final of terbium-labeled antibodies are added. After at least 30 minutes of incubation at room temperature, the TR-FRET signal is measured with a suitable microplate reader according to the supplier's recommendations. The data are normalized with positive controls ( POS containing a saturating concentration of reference inhibitor) and negative controls ( NEG containing 1% DMSO): % inhibition=((X−NEG)*100)/(POS−NEG). The IC50 values are calculated using a 4-parameter logistic model with the aid of the XLFit software (IDBS) |
