External ID: RMI-FANCM-MM2

Protocol: FP HTS. Screening took place at the University of Wisconsin Small Molecule Screening and Synthesis Facility. A master mix of RMI core complex and F-MM2 (30 microL per well) was plated in black 384 shallow well plates (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA), using a BioTek "MicroFlo Select" reagent dispenser. Compounds were added using a Beckman FX liquid handler; 0.33 microL of 10 mM stock was added for a final compound concentration of 33 microM. MM2 and cMM2 were each added to 4 wells of master mix per plate to a final concentration of 10 muM to serve as controls. Following compound addition, plates were covered, centrifuged briefly, and incubated for 20 minutes at room temperature. FP measurements were taking using a Tecan "Safire 2" microplate reader. Instrument settings were as follows: top read, EX 470, EM 525/20, G-factor 0.89947. A suitable gain was calculated from the first plate of each day. Z' scores for were calculated for each plate; plates with Z' scores <0.5 were rerun prior to analysis.

Protocol: C-terminally 6xHis tagged CDK2/Cyclin A complex and N-terminally Flag tagged CDC25B C473S (372-566) were expressed and purified. Proteins were incubated together at a final concentration of 125 nM each for 1 hr prior to incubation with compound for 1 hr, followed by addition of anti-6xHis europium cryptate donor beads (Cisbio) and anti-Flag XL-665 acceptor beads (Cisbio) at a final dilution of 1:350 for 1 hr. 20mM potassium fluoride was added 10 minute prior to plate reading. Assay reagents were dispensed using a multidrop liquid dispenser (Thermo Scientific) onto uncoated, black, low-volume, 384-well plates (Corning). Assay plates were quantified using an Envision plate reader (Perkin-Elmer) with excitation of the europium crytate donor at 337 nm wavelength and emission of the donor at 620 nm and emission of the XL-665 acceptor at 665 nm in 18 uL volumes. Assays were performed in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris (pH 7.5), 50 mM NaCl, 10mM MgCl2, 1mM TCEP, with addition of and 1mM ATP, 0.05% BSA, and 0.05% Tween-20 immediately prior to the start of the assay.

Comment: The activity outcome is based on a Z-score (number of standard deviations from the negative control mean) of 3 or higher on at least 50% times that the sample was screened.
For instance, if the sample was screened in n=4 runs, it would be considered active only if it had a Z-score of 3 or above in at least 2 runs.
