Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  SHP2 Enzyme Activity Inhibition Assay
Description:  Compound powders were dissolved in DMSO to prepare mother liquor.During the experiment, the stock solutions of the compounds were subjected to 3-fold gradient dilution with DMSO, and 10 different test concentrations of each compound were set. 1 μL of each concentration of the compounds was transferred into the wells of detection plates (Corning, Costar 3915), setting two duplicates for each concentration. The protein used was the activated protein SHP2E76A with amino acid mutation at position 76 of the protein, and the substrate used was DiFMUP (Invitrogen, E12020). SHP2E76A protein and substrate were diluted with buffer (0.1 M NaAc (pH 7.2), 0.02% Tween 20, 0.1% BSA, 1 mM EDTA, 5 mM DTT) to a concentration of 1.2 nM and 20 M, respectively. 50 L of enzyme solution was added to the detection wells, followed by 50 L of substrate. On the Spectra max i3 (Molecular Devices) instrument, the fluorescence signal was recorded (Ex 358 nm/Em 455 nm) every minute, from which the product accumulation rate was calculated to characterize the enzyme activity. GraphPad Prism 5 was used for nonlinear regression analysis, and the curve of enzyme activity versus compound concentration was fitted by the equation Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10{circumflex over ( )}((Log IC50−X)*HillSlope)) to calculate the IC50 value of each compound.
