Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Radiometric Filtration Binding Competition Assay
Description:  Briefly, the recombinant C-terminal ligand binding domain of the human STING protein (140-379) or mouse STING protein (139-328) [0.5 μM] was incubated in the presence of a compound of the present application (8 point, 2 fold dilution starting at 300 μM) for 30 min or under control conditions. H3 labeled 2′3′cGAMP [25 nM] was then added and allowed to reach binding equilibrium (1 hour). The resulting complexes were then filtered, dried, and scintillation fluid was added and the remaining radio signal was measured to determine the degree of compound ligand inhibition. This assay format was optimized for both the WT and HAQ isoforms of the human protein and the mouse orthologue protein. Assay DevelopmentParameters Optimized:a. Form of protein: 6Ă—HIS-SUMO tag or untaggedb. Concentration of target protein: Minimum concentration that achieved >80 max signalc. Assay DMSO concentration: 10%-0.1%d. Assay Buffer: Base (Tris or phosphate), Salt concentration, +/−Tween (0.1-2%)e. Synthesis of Probe: (1) Enzymatic incorporation of a S35-ATP and cold GTP into a 2′3′cGAMP product using a mouse cGAS enzyme with subsequent purification. (2) Tritium incorporation into 2′3′cGAMPf. Probe Concentration: Minimum concentration that achieved max assay windowg. Assay Format: Scintillation Proximity Bead or Filtration Binding Plateh. Assay Plate: 384 vs 96 well formati. Assay incubation times for successive incubation steps
