External ID: TBREL1_INH_FRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of Trypanosoma brucei RNA editing ligase 1 (TbREL1). In this assay, REL1 enzyme is incubated with test compounds and fluorescently labeled RNA substrates. The assay substrate consists of a pair of RNA oligonucleotides, one with the FRET donor (6-FAM) and the other with FRET acceptor (CY5), which are annealed to a complementary strand. Uninhibited REL-1, in the presence of ATP, will ligate the RNA oligos with the FRET pair. STOP buffer is then added which denatures the annealed substrate and disrupts any unligated FRET pairings. As designed, test compounds that act as REL1 inhibitors in the presence of ATP will prevent ligation of the RNA oligos with the FRET pair, thereby leading to decreasing well FRET signal. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a nominal test concentration of 9.66 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 2 microliters of annealed RNA substrate mix in annealing buffer (25mM KCl, 12.5mM Tris pH8.0, 5mM Magnesium acetate and 0.25mM DTT) in the presence of ATP (10uM final concentration) was dispensed into all wells of 1536 microtiter plates. Next, 39 nL of test compound in DMSO, NSC42067 (96uM final concentration) in DMSO, or DMSO alone (0.97% final concentration) were added to the appropriate wells. The assay was started by dispensing 2 microliters of ligation buffer (5mM KCl, 12.5mM Tris pH 6.0, 1mM Magnesium acetate, 0.25mM DTT, 0.2% Triton X-100 and 0.0003% Brij 35) into columns 1 thru column 3 and 2 microliters of ligation buffer containing REL1 enzyme (3.13ug/mL final concentration) into columns 4 thru 48. Plates were centrifuged and incubated for 30 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius.

STOP Buffer (8M UREA and 10mM EDTA pH8.0) was dispensed into all wells to disrupt non-ligated RNA substrates. Plates were centrifuged and after 15 minutes of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius, fluorescence was read on a Viewlux microplate reader (PerkinElmer, Turku, Finland) using a FITC dichroic mirror (excitation = 480nm, emission = 671nm).

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

100 * ( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing REL1 enzyme in the presence of test compound and RNA substrate.
High_Control is defined as wells containing REL1 enzyme, NSC42067 and RNA substrate.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The activity score range for active compounds is 100-11, for inactive 10-0.

External ID: ADAM17_INH_QFRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that inhibit ADAM17. This assay employs a fluorophore and quencher pair. F =EDANS fluorophore, Q = DABCYL quencher. When intact, EDANS emission at 460nm is quenched by DABCYL via fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Upon cleavage of the scissile bond (A~V) by ADAM protease, the distance between fluorophore and quencher increases resulting in fluorescence increase at 460nm. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 6.95 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 2.5 microliters 2X ADAM17 enzyme (20 nM in Assay Buffer: 50 mM HEPES, 0.01% Brij, pH 7.5) are dispensed into 1536 microtiter plates. Compounds are added to plate (final concentration TBD) and incubated for 30 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius. The assay is started by dispensing 2.5 microliter of2X DM2 substrate (20 uM in Assay Buffer) to all wells. Plates are centrifuged and after 3 hours of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius, fluorescence is measured (excitation = 359nm, emission = 460nm).

The % inhibition for each well was then calculated as follows:

%_Inhibition = ( RFU_Test_Compound - MedianRFU_Low_Control ) / ( MedianRFU_High_Control - MedianRFU_Low_Control ) * 100

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing test compound.
High_Control is defined as wells treated with 1 micromolar Marimastat
Low_Control is defined as wells containing DMSO.


Interval Cutoff:
A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Four values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all high controls tested plus three times the standard deviation of the high controls, (2) the average percent inhibition of all low controls tested minus three times the standard deviation of the low controls, (3) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested between (1) and (2), and (4) three times their standard deviation. The sum of two of these values, (3) and (4), was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition/activity than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The activity score range for active compounds is 100-8, for inactive 8-0.

External ID: UHRF1-CPGDNA_INH_TRFRET_1536_1X%INH CSRUN for MBD2-CPGDNA INH

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to determine whether compounds identified as inhibitors of MBD2 are nonselective, as determined by inhibition of methylated DNA-binding activity of the SRA domain polypeptide of ubiquitin-like with PHD and ring finger domains 1 (UHRF1). The UHRF1 gene encodes a member of a subfamily of RING-finger type E3 ubiquitin ligases. It contains a Set-and RING Associated (SRA) domain that binds to partially methylated DNA sequences during DNA synthesis. UHRF1 exhibits a different mode of DNA binding than MBD2, binding so-called hemi-methylated cytosines in order to promote their fully methylation. This assay is performed in a similar manner as the MBD2 screen, except that it employs recombinant UHRF1 SRA domain protein (UHRF1_SRA) and hemi-methylated DNA as its substrate. This assay monitors the ability of compounds to inhibit binding of cloned recombinant UHRF1_SRA to a FAM-labeled 14 bp hairpin oligonucleotide containing a hemimethylated CpG. In this biochemical assay, test compounds are incubated with UHRF1_SRA and a 5-carboxyfluorescene (FAM)-labeled 14bp hairpin DNA oligonucleotide containing one hemimethylated CpG dinucleotide in the presence of Tb-labeled anti-His antibody. An inhibitor of the UHRF1_SRA:FAM hemimethylated CpG interaction will inhibit binding between UHRF1 and FAM hemimethylated oligo, leading to reduced energy transfer and reduced well FRET (fluorescein emission / Tb emission). Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 4.4 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

The assay was started by dispensing 5 microliters of Control Mix in assay buffer (4% glycerol, 1 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 125 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), and 0.2% Tween-20) containing 125 nanomolar of UHRF1 protein, 5 micromolar of FAM labeled methylated CpG DNA oligo and 5 nanomolar of Terbium labeled anti-his antibody into columns 1 thru columns 2 of 1536 microtiter plates. Next, 5 microliters of Experimental Mix containing 125 nanomolar of UHRF1 protein, 100 nanomolar FAM labeled Hemimethylated CpG DNA oligo and 5 nanomolar Terbium labeled anti-his antibody in assay buffer were dispensed into columns 3 thru 48. Then, the plates were centrifuged and pinned with 22 nL of test compound in DMSO, Mitoxantrone (1.3 micromolar final concentration) in DMSO or DMSO alone (0.44% final concentration). The plates were incubated for 60 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius and TR-FRET was measured on a Viewlux microplate reader (Perkin Elmer, Turku, Finland). After excitation at 340 nm, well fluorescence was monitored at 495 nm (Tb) and 525 nm (FAM). For each well, a fluorescence ratio was calculated according to the following mathematical expression:
Ratio = I525nm / I495nm

Where:

I525nm represents the measured fluorescence emission at 525 nm.
I495nm represents the measured fluorescence emission at 495 nm.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated using as follows:

%_Inhibition = 100 * ( Ratio_Test_Compound - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) / ( Median_Ratio_High_Control - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing the Experimental Mix in the presence of test compound.
High_Control is defined as wells containing the Experimental Mix, Mitoxantrone and DMSO.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported Pubchem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-19, and for inactive compounds 19-0.

External ID: DAX1-FULL_INH_LUMI_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that can reduce DAX-1 activity. DAX-1 has been shown to inhibit SF-1-mediated transactivation (5).

SF-1 (steroidogenic factor 1; NR5A1) has been shown to function as a transcription factor for a variety of different steroidogenic enzyme genes in the adrenal gland and gonads. Specifically, SF-1 has been shown to induce differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into steroidogenic cells with concomitant strong induction of StAR expression.

This assay employs HEK293T cells co-transfected with plasmids expressing SF-1 and a luciferase reporter under control of the StAR promoter together with an expression plasmids for DAX-1, followed by treatment with test compounds. Under normal conditions, DAX-1 represses the SF-1-induced expression of the luciferase reporter. As designed, a compound that inhibits DAX-1 activity will reduce DAX1-mediated repression of SF-1, thereby allowing SF-1 to increase StAR promoter activity, resulting in increased well luminescence. Compounds will be tested in singlicate at a nominal concentration of 6.8 uM.

Protocol Summary:

HEK293 cells were routinely cultured in T-175 flasks containing 25 mL of DMEM media supplemented with 10% v/v fetal bovine serum and 1% v/v antibiotic-antimycotic mix at 37 C, 5% CO2 and 95% relative humidity (RH). The day prior to run the assay, the HEK293 cells were harvested using 5 mL of TrypLE reagents and seeded in fresh media at a density of 10 million cells per T175 flask. The following day, cells were transfected with 5 mL of serum-free OptiMEM containing 28 ug of the StAR promoter luciferase reporter plasmid, 14 ug of the SF-1 expressing palsmid, 21 ug of the DAX-1 expressing plasmid and 100 uL of transfection reagent. Four hours post transfection, cells were harvested using 5 mL of preheated TrypLE and resuspended at a concentration of 800,000 cells per mL in phenol-red free DMEM supplemented as above. In the absence of a pharmacological positive control, DAX-1 inhibition was mimicked by transfecting cells with an empty vector in place of the DAX-1 expressing vector.

The assay was started by dispensing 5 uL of cell suspension into each well of white, solid-bottom 1536-well plates using a flying reagent dispenser (Aurora). The first three columns received control cells (no DAX-1 expressed) whereas the rest of the plate was dispensed with DAX1-transfected cells. The plates were then treated with 34 nL/well of test compounds or DMSO (final concentration 0.68%) on DAX-1 cells and Control cells using a PinTool transfer unit (GNF). Plates were incubated for eighteen hours at 37 C, 5% CO2 and 95%RH. Plates were then removed from the incubator and equilibrated to room temperature for 10 minutes. Luciferase activity was detected by addition of 5 uL of SteadyLite reagent to each well. After a 15 minute incubation time, light emission was measured with the ViewLux reader (PerkinElmer).

The percent inhibition of each test compound was calculated as follows:

%_Inhibition = ( 1 - ( median_positive_control - test_compound ) / (median_positive_control - median_negative_control ) * 100

Where:

Positive control is defined as wells containing control cells (no DAX-1 expressed) treated with DMSO.
Negative control is defined as wells containing DAX-1 cells treated with DMSO.
Test compound is defined as wells containing DAX-1 cells containing test compound.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally active compounds. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-4, and for inactive compounds 4-0.

External ID: PLCB3_INH_QFRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of the activity of phospholipase C isozymes, PLC-B3. In this assay, PLC-B3 isozyme is incubated with test compounds and fluorogenic reporter WH-15. As designed, test compounds that act as PLC-B3 inhibitors will prevent the hydrolysis of WH-15 fluorogenic reporter, thus preventing the release of IP3, a quinomethide derivative, and 6-aminoquinoline, which is highly fluorescent, leading to decreasing well fluorescence. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a nominal test concentration of 12.2 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 2 microliters of PLC-B3 at a final concentration of 0.4ng/ul (in 50 mM HEPES pH 7.2, 70 mM KCl, 3mM CaCL2, 3mM EGTA, 2mM DTT, 0.04mg/mL acid-free BSA, with Cholate 0.5%) are dispensed into 1536 microtiter plates, 1 microliter of assay buffer is dispensed into columns 4-48 and 1 microliter of 0.2M EGTA is added to columns 1-3. Compounds are added to plate (final concentration 12.2uM) and incubated for 10 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius. The assay start by the addition of 2 microliter of WH-15 fluorogenic reporter at a final concentration 10uM in Assay Buffer to all wells. Plates were centrifuged and after 90 min of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius fluorescence is measured at 355nm excitation and 535nm emmision.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

100 *( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing PLCB3 in the presence of test compound and WH15 fluoreogenic reporter.
High_Control is defined as wells containing PLCB3, WH15 fluoreogenic reporter and EGTA.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Four values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all high controls tested plus three times the standard deviation of the high controls, (2) the average percent inhibition of all low controls tested minus three times the standard deviation of the low controls, (3) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested between (1) and (2), and (4) three times their standard deviation. The sum of two of these values, (3) and (4), was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition/activity than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

Twenty four hours post transfection, cells were harvested using 5 mL of preheated TrypLE and resuspended at a concentration of 1 million cells per mL in phenol-red free DMEM supplemented as above. Sodium butyrate, a compound shown to increase the luminscent signal in this assay, was used as a positive control.

The assay was started by dispensing 5 uL of cell suspension into each well of white, solid-bottom 1536-well plates using a flying reagent dispenser (Aurora) and placed in the incubator for 3 hours. Cells were then treated with 34 nL/well of either test compounds, DMSO (Low Control, final concentration 0.68%) or 2 mM of Sodium Butyrate (High Control). Plates were incubated for 24 hours at 37 C, 5% CO2 and 95%RH and then removed from the incubator and equilibrated to room temperature for 10 minutes. Luciferase activity was detected by addition of 5 uL of One-Glo reagent to each well. After a 15 minute incubation time, light emission was measured with the ViewLux reader (PerkinElmer).

The percent activation of each test compound was calculated as follows:

%_Activation = 100 * ( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median__Low_Control ) )

Where:

High_Control is defined as wells treated with 2 mM Sodium Butyrate
Low_Control is defined as wells treated with DMSO only.
Test_Compound is defined as wells treated with test compound.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary activation. Negative % activation values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-12, and for inactive compounds 12-0.

External ID: TPD2_INH_EPIABS_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of the activity of tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2). TDP2 is a divalent cation-dependent enzyme that repairs TopII-associated DNA strand breaks. It is hypothesized that inhibitors of TDP2 may serve as useful adjuvants in combination with cancer drugs such as etoposide.

In this biochemical assay, recombinant human TDP2 protein is incubated at 37 degrees Celsius with the T5PNP substrate in the presence of Mg2+-containing assay buffer.T5PNP is a substrate for snake venom phosphodiesterase, as well as a substrate for TDP2. As a substrate for TDP2, T5PNP is used to mimic the TopII-DNA complex. TDP2 cleaves the phosphodiester bond in T5PNP, and the chromogenic p-nitrophenol group is released. As time increases the TDP2 enzyme will increasingly catalyze hydrolysis of the T5PNP substrate, resulting in increased release of p-nitrophenol and detection at 415nM wavelength. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 12.8microM.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 2 ul of a solution containing T5PNP subtrate (final concentration 5mM) in assay buffer (50mM Tris-HCl pH7.5, 1mM DTT, 1mM MgCl2, 50mM KCl and 100ug/ml BSA) was dispended into a all wells of a 1536 well plate. Next, 39nL of test compound in DMSO or DMSO alone (1% final concentration) was added to the appropriate wells. The assay was started by dispensing 1 ul of a solution contanting TDP2 enzyme (120nM final concentration) in assay buffer to wells in columns 4-48 and 1ul of assay buffer alone to wells in columnes 1-3. Plates were centrifuged and incubated for 2hrs at 37 degrees Celsius at which time fluorescence intensity was measured (Ex. 405nm and Em. 405nm) using a EnVision microplate reader (Perkin Elmer).

Prior to further calculations, the following formula was used to calculate Epi Absorbance (EPIABS)

EPIABS = -log10( sample / background)

Where:

Sample is defined as the fluorescent intensity of wells containing test compounds or DMSO.
Background is defined as the fluorescent intensity of wells containing buffer and T5PNP only.

The % inhibition for each well was then calculated as follows:

%_Inhibition = ( EPIABS_Test_Compound - MedianEPIABS_Low_Control ) / ( MedianEPIABS_High_Control - MedianEPIABS_Low_Control ) * 100

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing test compound, TDP2 and T5PNP.
High_Control is defined as wells containing only Buffer and T5PNP.
Low_Control is defined as wells containing DMSO, TDP2 and T5PNP.

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

External ID: ABHD4_INH_FP_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of alpha/beta hydrolase domain containing 4 (ABHD4). In this assay, ABHD4 protein is incubated with test compounds and fluorophosphonate-rhodamine (FP-Rh) activity-based probe. The reaction is excited with linear polarized light and the intensity of the emitted light is measured as the polarization value (mP). As designed, test compounds that act as ABHD4 inhibitors will prevent ABHD4-probe interactions, thereby increasing the proportion of free (unbound) fluorescent probe in the well, leading to low fluorescence polarization. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a nominal test concentration of 8.92 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 4 microliters of assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.0, 150 mM NaCl and 0.01% Pluronic F-127) were dispensed into column 2 only. Next, 4 microliters of assay buffer containing 46.9 ug/mL of ABHD4 mutant protein (S159A) were dispensed into columns 1 and 3 of 1536 microtiter plates and 4 microliters of assay buffer containing 46.9 ug/mL of ABHD4 wild type protein were dispensed into columns 4 thru 48. Then, 45 nL of test compound in DMSO or DMSO alone (0.89% final concentration) were added to the appropriate wells and incubated for 45 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius.

The assay was started by dispensing 1.0 microliter of 188 nM FP-Rh in assay buffer to all wells. Plates were centrifuged and after 60 minutes of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius, fluorescence polarization was read on a Viewlux microplate reader (PerkinElmer, Turku, Finland) using a BODIPY TMR FP filter set and a BODIPY dichroic mirror (excitation = 525nm, emission = 598nm) for 30 seconds for each polarization plane (parallel and perpendicular).

Prior to further calculations, the following formula was used to calculate fluorescence polarization (FP):

FP = ( Raw1 - Raw2 ) / ( Raw1 + Raw2 )

Where:

Raw1 is defined as the S channel.
Raw2 is defined as the P channel.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

100 *( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing ABHD4 wild type protein in the presence of test compound and FP-Rh.

External ID: PLCG1_INH_QFRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of the activity of phospholipase C isozymes, PLC-G1. In this assay, PLC-G1 isozyme is incubated with test compounds and fluorogenic reporter WH-15. As designed, test compounds that act as PLC-G1 inhibitors will prevent the hydrolysis of WH-15 fluorogenic reporter, thus preventing the release of IP3, a quinomethide derivative, and 6-aminoquinoline, which is highly fluorescent, leading to decreasing well fluorescence. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a nominal test concentration of 12.2 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 2 microliters of PLC-G1 at a final concentration of 5pg/ul (in 50 mM HEPES pH 7.2, 70 mM KCl, 3mM CaCL2, 3mM EGTA, 2mM DTT, 0.04mg/mL acid-free BSA, with Cholate 0.5%) are dispensed into 1536 microtiter plates, 1 microliter of assay buffer is dispensed into columns 4-48 and 1 microliter of 0.2M EGTA is added to columns 1-3. Compounds are added to plate (final concentration 12.2uM) and incubated for 10 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius. The assay start by the addition of 2 microliter of WH-15 fluorogenic reporter at a final concentration 10uM in Assay Buffer to all wells. Plates were centrifuged and after 90 min of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius fluorescence is measured at 355nm excitation and 535nm emmision.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

100 *( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing PLCG1 in the presence of test compound and WH15 fluoreogenic reporter.
High_Control is defined as wells containing PLCG1, WH15 fluoreogenic reporter and EGTA.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Four values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all high controls tested plus three times the standard deviation of the high controls, (2) the average percent inhibition of all low controls tested minus three times the standard deviation of the low controls, (3) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested between (1) and (2), and (4) three times their standard deviation. The sum of two of these values, (3) and (4), was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition/activity than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The activity score range for active compounds is 100-11, for inactive 11-0.

External ID: FIBRIN-TN7_INH_FP_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that bind to Fibrin-DD(E), a protein substrate prepared from human-derived polymerized fibrin clots. In this assay, Fibrin-DD(E) protein is incubated with test compounds for a defined period, followed by addition of fluorescent probe fluorescein Tn7 (FITC-Tn7). The reaction is excited with linear polarized light and the intensity of the emitted light is measured as the polarization value. As designed, test compounds that bind to Fibrin-DD(E) will prevent Fibrin-DD(E)-probe interactions, thereby increasing the proportion of free (unbound) fluorescent probe in the well, leading to low fluorescence polarization. Compounds will be tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 8.3 uM.

Protocol Summary:
Displacement assay starts by the addition of Fibrin-DD(E) (final concentration 2uM) in assay buffer (50mM Tris base, 100 mM NaCl, 2 mM CaCl2, and 0.01% Triton X-100, pH 7.8) to all wells, followed by the addition of equal volume of inhibitor peptide Aha-Tn7 (final concentration 10uM) to high control wells and equal volume of assay buffer to sample wells and low control wells. Compounds in DMSO are transferred to plate and incubated for a period of 10 min, at which time TRITC-TN7 probe is added to all wells (final concentration of 0.1uM). After 3 hrs at room temperature fluorescence polarization is measured using Perkin Elmer EnVisionwith FITC filter set.

External ID: COUPTFII_INH_LUMI_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this cell-based assay is to identify compounds that can inhibit COUP-TFII transcriptional activity. The expression vectors for COUP-TFII (pcDNA6.2-COUP-TFII) and the luciferase reporter NGFIA-Luc (pXP2-168) are transiently cotransfected into HEK-293T cells.

COUP-TFII has been shown to efficiently activate NGFI-A-Luc expression (17) and the readout can be measured by a luminometer. Small molecules that inhibit COUP-TFII transcriptional activity will decrease the promoter activity that can be detected by luciferase assay. As designed, compounds that inhibit COUP-TFII activity will decrease luciferase activity, resulting in decreased well luminescence.

Protocol Summary:

HEK293 cells were routinely cultured in T-175 flasks containing 25 mL of DMEM media supplemented with 10% v/v fetal bovine serum and 1% v/v antibiotic-antimycotic mix at 37 C, 5% CO2 and 95% relative humidity (RH). The day prior to run the assay, the HEK293 cells were harvested using 5 mL of TrypLE reagents and seeded in fresh media at a density of 10 million cells per T175 flask. The following day, cells were transfected with 1 mL of serum-free OptiMEM containing 12 ug of the plasmid encoding for COUP-TF2, 8 ug of the pX2-168 luciferase reporter plasmid, and 60 uL of X-tremeGene 9 transfection reagent. Twenty four hours post transfection, cells were harvested using 5 mL of preheated TrypLE and resuspended at a concentration of 800,000 cells per mL in phenol-red free DMEM supplemented as above. In the absence of a pharmacological positive control, COUP-TF2 inhibition was mimicked by transfecting cells in absence of the COUP-TF2 expressing vector (i.e. reporter plasmid only).

The assay was started by dispensing 5 uL of cell suspension into each well of white, sterile, solid-bottom 1536-well plates. The first three columns received control cells (no COUP-TF2 expressed) whereas the rest of the plate was dispensed with COUP-TF2-transfected cells. After addition of cells the plates were spun down. The plates were incubated for 4 hours and then treated with 43 nL/well of test compounds or DMSO (final concentration 0.65%) on COUP-TF2 cells and Control cells. Plates were incubated for eighteen hours at 37 C, 5% CO2 and 95% RH. Plates were then removed from the incubator and equilibrated to room temperature for 10 minutes. Luciferase activity was detected by addition of 5 uL of One-Glo reagent to each well. After a 10 minute incubation time, light emission was measured with the ViewLux reader (PerkinElmer).

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

%_Inhibition = ( ( Test_Compound - Median_Sample_Field ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Sample_Field ) ) * 100

Where:

High_Control is defined as wells containing cells transfected with reporter plamid only (pX2-168)
Test_Compound is defined as well containing cells cotransfected with pcDNA6.2-COUP-TFII and pX2-168 in the presence of test compounds
Sample_Field is defined as wells containing cells cotransfected with pcDNA6.2-COUP-TFII and pX2-168 in the presence of test compounds

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated for each assay plate: (1) the average percent inhibition of test compound wells that are within the High and Low Controls (i.e. higher than the average plues three standard deveiations of the Low Control wells and lower than the average minus three stardard deviation of the High Control wells) and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter for each plate, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than that particular plate's cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-34, and for inactive compounds 34-0.

External ID: BRM_ACT_LUMI_1536_1X%ACT PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as activators (re-activators) of BRM function. This assay relies on the fact that BRM assists the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in activating the MMTV promoter, which is used to drive expression of a luciferase reporter gene (7). Compounds active in this assay will restore BRM function, allowing the SWI/SNF-dependent GR to induce the MMTV promoter, leading to increased luciferase expression and well luminescence. MG213 cells are incubated in the presence of 0.1 uM Dexamethasone for 24 hours prior to be plated in 1536-well plates at 600 cells/well in 5 ul media with Dexamethasone using Kalypsys dispenser. The cells are immediately pinned with 45 nL of compound, control or DMSO, spun down, and incubated overnight at 37 C. Test compounds compound are delivered to the plates containing the MG213 cells and dexamethasone using pintool. Chembridge 5306793 is included as a positive control on each plate. OneGlo luciferase reagent is used according to the manufacturer's directions. Luminescence is measured using the Viewlux plate reader. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 9.1 uM. Note that the cell line used for this assay has been transduced with the E1A gene, which produces the viral oncoprotein, E1A. This protein sequesters Rb (and Rb2) protein thus preventing cellular growth inhibition. At lower densities, these newly modified cells have a more linear growth rate and do not lag when plated at low density. At higher densities (which typically impacts normal cell growth via contact inhibition), these cells maintain their growth rate allowing these cells to grow to higher densities. This modified cell line allows for a greater experimental range for this assay and improves its performance (consistency) as compared to the parental MG213 cells.

Protocol Summary:

The MG132 cell line was routinely cultured in T-175 sq cm flasks at 37 C and 95% relative humidity (RH). The growth media consisted of RPMI -1640 supplemented with 5% v/v certified fetal bovine serum, 500 ug/mL Geneticin, and 1X antibiotic mix (penicillin, streptomycin, and neomycin).

Prior to the start of the assay 600 cells in a 5 ul volume of assay media (growth media as above except without geneticin and with 2.5% FBS and 0.1uM Dexamethasone) were dispensed into each well of 1536-well tissue culture-treated microtiter plates. The assay was started immediately by dispensing 45 nL of test compound in DMSO (0.69 % final DMSO concentration), DMSO alone, or CB5306793 to the appropriate wells. Next, the plates were incubated for 24 hours at 37 C (5% CO2, 95% RH). The assay was stopped by dispensing 5 ul of One Glo luciferase substrate to each well, followed by incubation at room temperature for 15 minutes. Well luminescence was measured on the ViewLux plate reader.

The percent activation for each compound was calculated as follows:

%Activation = ( 1 - ( ( Test_Compound - Median_High_Control ) / ( Median_Low_Control - Median_High_Control ) ) ) * 100

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing test compound.
Low_Control is defined as wells containing DMSO.
High_Control is defined as wells containing CB5306793.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally activating compounds in the Primary Screen. Two values were calculated for each assay plate: (1) the average percent activation of test compound wells and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter for each plate, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % activation than that particular plate's cutoff parameter was declared active. The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% of the highest observed primary activation value. Negative % activation values are reported as activity score zero.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary activation. Negative % activation values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-6, and for inactive compounds 6-0.

Comment: Due to the increasing size of the MLPCN compound library, this assay may have been run as two or more separate campaigns, each campaign testing a unique set of compounds. In this case the results of each separate campaign were assigned "Active/Inactive" status based upon that campaign's specific compound activity cutoff value. All data reported were normalized on a per-plate basis. Possible artifacts of this assay can include, but are not limited to: dust or lint located in or on wells of the microtiter plate, compounds that non-specifically modulate luciferase activity, and compounds that quench or emit luminescence within the well.

External ID: SIAE_INH_FP_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of sialic acid acetylesterase (SIAE). In this assay, SIAE protein is incubated with test compounds and fluorophosphonate-rhodamine (FP-Rh) activity-based probe. The reaction is excited with linear polarized light and the intensity of the emitted light is measured as the polarization value (mP). As designed, test compounds that act as SIAE inhibitors will prevent SIAE-probe interactions, thereby increasing the proportion of free (unbound) fluorescent probe in the well, leading to low fluorescence polarization. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a nominal test concentration of 9.66 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 3 microliters of assay buffer (1X DPBS and 0.01% Pluronic F-127) were dispensed into column 1 thru column 3 of 1536 microtiter plates. Next, 3 microliters of assay buffer containing 0.73uM of SIAE protein were dispensed into columns 4 thru 48. Then, 39 nL of test compound in DMSO or DMSO alone (0.97% final concentration) were added to the appropriate wells and incubated for 45 minutes at 25 degrees Celsius.

The assay was started by dispensing 1.0 microliter of 300 nM FP-Rh in assay buffer to all wells. Plates were centrifuged and after 120 minutes of incubation at 25 degrees Celsius, fluorescence polarization was read on a Viewlux microplate reader (PerkinElmer, Turku, Finland) using a BODIPY TMR FP filter set and a BODIPY dichroic mirror (excitation = 525nm, emission = 598nm) for 25 seconds for each polarization plane (parallel and perpendicular).

Prior to further calculations, the following formula was used to calculate fluorescence polarization (FP):

FP = ( Raw1 - Raw2 ) / ( Raw1 + Raw2 )

Where:

Raw1 is defined as the S channel.
Raw2 is defined as the P channel.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

100 *( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing SIAE protein in the presence of test compound and FP-Rh.
High_Control is defined as wells containing DMSO, FP-Rh but, no SIAE protein.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Four values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all high controls tested plus three times the standard deviation of the high controls, (2) the average percent inhibition of all low controls tested minus three times the standard deviation of the low controls, (3) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested between (1) and (2), and (4) three times their standard deviation. The sum of two of these values, (3) and (4), was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition/activity than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The activity score range for active compounds is 100-2, for inactive 2-0.

External ID: PI4K2A

Protocol: For the robotic screening, the ADP-Glo assay using the ADP-Glotrade mark Kinase Assay kit from Promega was miniaturized and optimized on 1536-well white solid bottom plates (Greiner Bio-one). The substrate, 1.2 mM PI, prepared in the assay buffer (40mM Tris pH7.5, 20mM MgCl2, 1mM EGTA, 0.4% Triton X-100, 0.5mM DTT, 0.5mg/ml BSA) and PI4K2A enzyme, diluted also in the assay buffer to 4ug/mL, were dispensed onto the plates in equal volumes (1microl/well), pinned with 23 nL/well tested compounds or control followed by dispensation of 1microl/well 300microM ATP. The plates were incubated for one hour. Then, 2 muL/well of ADP-Glo reagent was added and incubated for 40 minutes. Next, 4microL/well of Kinase Detection Buffer was added to the plates and incubated for additional 40 minutes. All incubation steps were performed at ambient temperature. The resulting luminescence signal was measured on Viewlux plate reader (PerkinElmer). Adenosine, a partial non-specific inhibitor, was used as a positive control at 100microM final concentration to assess the assay's quality and plate-to-plate reproducibility. We also used "no enzyme" control to gauge the assay's maximal potential inhibition (IC100).

Comment: PubChem score indicates % inhibition activity at 76.9 uM of the compound (Max_response). Active compounds with Max_response greater than 90%, PUBCHEM_ACTIVITY_SCORE is 100. Active compounds with Max_response greater than 80%, PUBCHEM_ACTIVITY_SCORE is 80. Active compounds with Max_response between 50% and 80%, PUBCHEM_ACTIVITY_SCORE is 60. Inconclusive Compounds with Max_response between 30% and 50% have PUBCHEM_ACTIVITY_SCORE 30. For all inactive compounds with Max_response less than 30%, PUBCHEM_ACTIVITY_SCORE is 0

External ID: PRPC_INH_TRFRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of PRPc cell surface expression. This assay detects PrPc on the surface of living LD9 fibroblast cells using two PRPC-specific antibodies which carry donor and acceptor fluorophores, respectively.

In this assay, the antibodies are directed against distinct, non-overlapping PrPc epitopes. Antibody occupancy of both epitopes of a PrPc molecule results in FRET signal emission. Free antibody or single antibody occupancy is not detected. The assay employs long half-life lanthanide donors (Europium or Terbium cryptate) and acceptor fluorophores XL665 or d2: SAF32 (aa53-93) and D18 (aa133-157) labeled with the donor and acceptor fluorophores, respectively. Ratios of 665 nm to 620 nm measurements are calculated, to take into account non-specific absorption of 620 nm light by the assay matrix. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 13.8 microM.

Protocol Summary:

The LD9 cell line (subclone of L929, which is a mouse fibroblast cell line) was routinely cultured in T-175 sq cm flasks at 37 C and 95% relative humidity (RH). The growth media consisted of Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium (no phenol red) supplemented with 5% v/v Bovine Growth Serum Supplemented Calf and 1X Penicillin-Streptomycin.

The day before the assay, 3 uL of cell growth media was dispensed into the first two columns of 1536 well microtiter plates and 1500 cells in 3 uL of cell growth media were seeded into the remaining wells. Next, 42 nL of test compound in DMSO, Brefeldin A (58 uM final concentration) in DMSO, or DMSO alone (1.38% final concentration) were dispensed to the appropriate wells. The plates were then incubated for 21 hours at 37 C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH.

The assay was started by adding 1 uL of SAF32-Tb at a final concentration of 0.072ug/mL and 1ul of D18-d2 at a final concentration of 0.66ug/mL to all wells, respectively. Labeled Antibodies were prepared in 1X PBS. Plates were centrifuged and after 3 hours of incubation at room temperature, well TRFRET was read on a ViewLux microplate reader (Perkin Elmer, Turku, Finland). Measurements were performed by exciting the plates at 340 nM, and monitoring well fluorescence at 618 nm (Tb) and 671 nm (d2) with the ViewLux microplate reader.

To normalize data, values measured from both fluorescence emission wavelengths were used to calculate a ratio for each well, according to the following mathematical expression:

Ratio = I671nm / I618nm

Where:

I represents the measured fluorescence emission intensity at the enumerated wavelength in nm.

The percent inhibition was calculated from the median ratio as follows:

%_Inhibition = 100 * ( ( Ratio_Test_Compound - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) / ( Median_Ratio_High_Control - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing cells, test compounds and DMSO.
High_Control is defined as wells containing cells, Brefeldin A and DMSO.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % inhibition than the cutoff parameter was declared active.

The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed primary inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-18, and for inactive compounds 18-0.

External ID: MBD2-CPGDNA_INH_TRFRET_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that inhibit the binding of cloned recombinant 6-His-tagged DNA-binding domain of MBD2 (MBD2-DBD) to a FAM-labeled 14 bp hairpin oligonucleotide containing a symmetrically-methylated CpG, whose interaction is monitored using Tb labeled anti-his antibody. Pre-incubation of the MBD2 protein, FAM labeled methylated CpG oligo and Tb-labeled anti-His antibody leads to formation of a stable complex. Anti-his-complexed lanthanide (Tb) attaches to the anti-his-binding peptide tag on MBD2-DBD protein. When terbium donor is excited, Tb transfers energy to a fluorescein tag on the methylated oligo, now complexed with MBD2-DBD, resulting in an increase in TR-FRET. An inhibitor of the MBD2-DBD:FAM methylated CpG interaction will inhibit binding between MBD2 and FAM methylated oligo, leading to reduced energy transfer and reduced well FRET (fluorescein emission / Tb emission). Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 4.4 uM.

Protocol Summary:

The assay was started by dispensing 5 uL of Control Mix in assay buffer (4% glycerol, 1 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 125 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), and 0.2% Tween-20) containing 25 nM of MBD2 protein, 30 nM of FAM labeled Unmethylated CpG DNA oligo and 5 nM of Terbium labeled anti-his antibody into columns 1 thru columns 3 of 1536 microtiter plates. Next, 5 uL of Experimental Mix containing 25 nM of MBD2 protein, 30 nM FAM labeled Methylated CpG DNA oligo and 5 nM Terbium labeled anti-his antibody in assay buffer were dispensed into columns 4 thru 48. Then, the plates were centrifuged and pinned with 22 nL of test compound in DMSO or DMSO alone (0.44% final concentration). The plates were incubated for 30 minutes at 25 C and TR-FRET was measured on a Viewlux microplate reader (Perkin Elmer, Turku, Finland). After excitation at 340 nm, well fluorescence was monitored at 495 nm (Tb) and 525 nm (FAM). For each well, a fluorescence ratio was calculated according to the following mathematical expression:

Ratio = I525nm / I495nm

Where:

I525nm represents the measured fluorescence emission at 525 nm.
I495nm represents the measured fluorescence emission at 495 nm.

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated using as follows:

%_Inhibition = 100 * ( Ratio_Test_Compound - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) / ( Median_Ratio_High_Control - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing the Experimental Mix in the presence of test compound.
High_Control is defined as wells containing the Control Mix and DMSO.
Low_Control is defined as the median of the wells containing test compounds.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

A mathematical algorithm was used to determine nominally inhibiting compounds in the Primary screen. Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all compounds tested, and (2) three times their standard deviation.
