Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Inhibitory Action on Binding of BRD4 Protein and Ligand Test Method 2
Description:  Table 4-2: The inhibitory action of the compound of the present invention on the binding of BRD4 protein and a ligand thereof (acetylated histone H4) was evaluated by the time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) method using EPIgeneous Binding Domain Kit A (Cisbio), BRD4-1 (GST) (Reaction Biology Corp) and [Lys(Ac)5/8/12/16]-Histone H4(1-21)-GGK (Biotin) (Eurogentec). In this experiment, (+)-JQ1 known to have an inhibitory activity on the binding of BRD4 protein and acetylated histone H4 therefor was used as a positive control drug. A test compound dissolved DMSO was diluted with attached Diluent Buffer, added to a 384 well white plate, and BRD4-1 (GST) and [Lys(Ac)5/8/12/16]-Histone H4(1-21)-GGK (Biotin) were further added. Thereafter, Streptavidin-d2 conjugate and Anti-GST-Eu3+ Cryptate Conjugate were added and the cells were incubated at room temperature for 3 hr. The binding amount of the BRD4 protein and acetylated histone H4 was measured as the fluorescence intensity (excitation: 314 nm/emission: 620 nm and excitation: 314 nm/emission: 665 nm). The BRD4 protein inhibitory activity of the compound of the present invention is shown in IC50 value (concentration of compound that inhibits 50% of the binding of BRD4 protein and acetylated histone H4) in Table 4-2.
