| | CTPS1 Enzyme Inhibition Assay |
| Description: | Assays for human CTPS1 were performed in 1× assay buffer containing 50 mM Tris, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Tween-20, pH to 8.0 accordingly. Finally, immediately before use, L-cysteine was added to the 1× assay buffer to a final concentration of 2 mM. All reagents are from Sigma-Aldrich unless specified otherwise. Human full length active C-terminal FLAG-His8-tag CTPS1 (UniProtKB—P17812, CTPS[1-591]-GGDYKDDDDKGGHHHHHHHH, SEQ ID NO: 1) was obtained from Proteros biostructures GmbH.Assay Procedure: 3× human CTPS1 protein was prepared in 1× assay buffer to the final working protein concentration required for the reaction. A 2 uL volume per well of 3× human CTPS1 protein was mixed with 2 uL per well of 3× test compound (compound prepared in 1× assay buffer to an appropriate final 3× compound concentration respective to the concentration response curve designed for the compounds under test) for 10 minutes at 25° C. The enzymatic reaction was then initiated by addition of a 2 uL per well volume of a pre-mixed substrate mix (UltraPure ATP from ADP-Glo™ Max kit (0.31 mM), GTP (0.034 mM), UTP (0.48 mM) and L-glutamine (0.186 mM)) and the mixture was incubated for an appropriate amount of time within the determined linear phase of the reaction at 25° C. under sealed plate conditions with constant agitation at 500 revolutions per minute (rpm). ADP-Glo™ Max reagent was added for 60 minutes (6 μL per well) and subsequently ADP-Go™ Max development reagent was added for 60 minutes (12 uL per well) prior to signal detection in a microplate reader (EnVision® Multilabel Reader, Perkin Elmer). Following each reagent addition over the course of the assay, assay plates were pulse centrifuged for 30 seconds at 500 rpm. |
