Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  In Vitro Kinase Assay
Description:  The inhibition of the FLT3 kinase activity was measured with homogeneous, time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assays. Recombinant proteins containing the FLT3 kinase domain were purchased from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, Calif., USA). Optimal enzyme, ATP, and substrate concentrations were established with the HTRF KinEASE kit (Cisbio, France) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The FLT3 enzymes were mixed with serially diluted compounds and peptide substrates in a kinase reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES (pH 7.0), 500 μM ATP, 0.1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% bovine serum albumin (BSA), and 0.02% NaN3). Ten microliters of the total volume of the kinase reaction were added to the wells of a 96-well assay plate. The kinase reactions were incubated for 30 min at 25° C. For the detection of the phospho-substrate, the Eu3b-Cryptate-conjugated mouse monoclonal antibody (PT66) and the streptavidin-XL665 (SA-XL) were added, and the reactions were then incubated for 1 hour at 25° C. The signal was measured on an Victor X5 multi-label reader (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass., USA). The curve was fitted by nonlinear regression, and the IC50 was calculated using GraphPad Prism 5.01 (GraphPad, La Jolla, Calif., USA).
