Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  RORγt Reporter Assay
Description:  The reporter assay was performed by transiently transfecting HEK293T cells with 5 μg of pBIND-RORγt LBD or pBIND-RORγt LBD-AF2 and 5 μg pGL4.31 (Promega Cat no. C935A) using Fugene 6 (Invitrogen Cat no. E2691) at a 1:6 ratio of DNA: Fugene 6 in a T-75 flask in which cells were at least 80% confluent. Twenty four hours after bulk transfection, cells were plated into 96-well plates at 50,000 cells/well in phenol-red free DMEM containing 5% Lipid Reduced FCS and Pen/Strep. Six hours after plating, cells were treated with compounds for 24 hours. Media was removed and cells were lysed with 50 μL 1x Glo Lysis Buffer (Promega). Dual Glo Luciferase Reagent (50 μL/well) was then added and firefly luciferase luminescence was read on an Envision after a ten minute incubation. Finally, Stop and Glo reagent (50 μL/well) was added and renilla luciferase luminescence was read on an Envision after a ten minute incubation.
