Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Fluorescent Assay
Description:  Rat/homo FAAH:Procedure was followed as described for hMGL, except that arachidonoyl-methyl coumarin (was used as fluorigenic substrate. Compounds were diluted in 50:50 DMSO/assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% BSA, pH 7.4) so as to have a final DMSO concentration below 8% in each reaction. For the screening assay, 3 concentrations (1 μM, 10 μM, and 100 μM) of test compounds, 15 jag of ΔTM rFAAH or hRAAH and assay buffer were pre-incubated for 15 min at 25° C. AAMCA (20 μM, 2×Km) was added prior to incubation at 25° C. and kinetic fluorescence reading every 20 minutes (λex=360/λem=460) for 4 hours on a BioTek Synergy HT Microplate Reader.
