Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzyme Assay
Description:  Active GST-LRRK2 (1326-2527), GST-LRRK2[G2019S] (1326-2527), GST-LRRK2[A2016T] (1326-2527) and GST-LRRK2[A2016T+G2019S] (1326-2527) enzyme was purified with glutathione sepharose from HEK293 cell lysate 36 h following transient transfection of the appropriate cDNA constructs. Peptide kinase assays, performed in triplicate, were set up in a total volume of 40 μl containing 0.5 μg LRRK2 kinase (which at approximately 10% purity gives a final concentration of 8 nM) in 50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.5, 0.1 mM EGTA, 10 mM MgCl2, 20 μM Nictide, 0.1 μM [γ-32P]ATP ( 500 cpm/pmol) and the indicated concentrations of inhibitor dissolved in DMSO. After incubation for 15 min at 30° C., reactions were terminated by spotting 35 μl of the reaction mix onto P81 phosphocellulose paper and immersion in 50 mM phosphoric acid. Samples were washed extensively and the incorporation of [γ-32P]ATP into Nictide was quantified by Cerenkov counting. IC50 values were calculated with GraphPad Prism using non-linear regression analysis.
