Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  PRMT5-MEP50 Enzyme Activity
Description:  The histone H4 peptide was diluted with carbonate-bicarbonate buffer and prepared to 100 μg/mL, and then dispensed onto the plate per 100 μL and reacted at 37° C. for 1 hour. PRMT5-MEP50 enzyme complex and S-adenosylmethionine were diluted with histone methyltransferase reaction buffer to prepare 5 μg/mL and 2 μM, respectively, and then 20 μL of PRMT5-MEP50 enzyme complex and 25 μL of S-adenosylmethionine were dispensed onto the plate prepared above. 5 μL of the compound diluted with 10% dimethyl sulfoxide solution was added thereto and reacted at room temperature for 2 hours (final volume=50 μL). The concentration of the compound was diluted 1:5 from 10 μM until the lowest concentration of 0.128 nM, and 8 points were used for the test. After preparing the primary antibody by diluting 1:2000 with blocking buffer, 100 μL was added to the plate and reacted at room temperature for 1 hour. After preparing horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibody by diluting 1:10,000 with blocking buffer, 100 μL was added to the plate and reacted at room temperature for 1 hour. 100 μL of TMB substrate was added and reacted for 3 minutes at room temperature, and 100 μL of 1 N sulfuric acid was then added to terminate the reaction. Then, the absorbance at 450 nm was measured to calculate the IC50 value of the compound.
