Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  High ATP Kinase Assay
Description:  For the assay 50 nl of a 100 fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into either a black low volume 384 well microtiter plate or a black 1536 well microtiter plate (both Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μL of a solution of TBK1 in aqueous assay buffer [50 mM HEPES pH 7.0, 10 mM MgCl2, 1.0 mM dithiothreitol, 0.05% (w/v) bovine serum albumine, 0.01% (v/v) Nonidet-P40 (Sigma), protease inhibitor mixture ( Complete w/o EDTA from Roche, 1 tablet per 5 mL)] were added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to the enzyme before the start of the kinase reaction. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of 3 μL of a solution of adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP, 1.67 mM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 1 mM) and substrate (1.67 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 1 μM) in assay buffer and the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 30 min at 22° C. The concentration of TBK1 was adjusted depending of the activity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assay in the linear range, typical concentrations were in the range of 0.002-0.004 pg/mL. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 3 μL of a solution of TR-FRET detection reagents (0.33 μM streptavidine-XL665 [Cisbio Bioassays, Codolet, France], 2.5 nM anti-phosho-Serine antibody [Merck Millipore, STK antibody , cat. #35-002] and 1.25 nM LANCE EU-W1024 labeled anti-mouse IgG antibody [Perkin-Elmer, product no. AD0077]) in an aqueous EDTA-solution (167 mM EDTA, 0.13% (w/v) bovine serum albumin in 100 mM HEPES/NaOH pH 7.5).The resulting mixture was incubated 1 h at 22° C. to allow the formation of complex between the phosphorylated biotinylated peptide and the detection reagents.
