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.

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 modulate well fluorescence. All test compound concentrations reported above and below are nominal; the specific test concentration(s) for a particular compound may vary based upon the actual sample provided by the MLSMR.

External ID: CHRM1_AG_FLUO8_1536_1X%ACT PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as agonists of the human M1 muscarinic receptor (CHRM1; M1). In this assay, CHO-K1 cells stably expressing human M1 are loaded, intracellularly with the calcium indicator dye, Fluo-8, followed by treatment with agonist control or test compounds. As designed, compounds that act as CHRM1 agonists will increase intracellular calcium mobilization, resulting in increased relative fluorescence of the indicator dye and well fluorescence. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 3 uM.

Protocol Summary:

The CHO-hM1 cell line was routinely cultured in T-175 sq cm flasks at 37 C and 95% relative humidity (RH). The growth media consisted of Ham's F-12 Nutrient Media (F-12) supplemented with 10% v/v heat-inactivated qualified fetal bovine serum, 20 mM HEPES, 50 ug/mL Geneticin, and 1X antibiotic mix (penicillin and streptomycin).

The day before the assay 3000 cells in 3 uL of growth media were seeded into each well of 1536 well microtiter plates and allowed to incubate at 37 C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH for 17-24 hours. Next, 2 uL of the fluorogenic Fluo-8 intracellular calcium indicator mixture (prepared according to the manufacturer's protocol) was added to each well. Plates were then incubated for 1 hour at 37 C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH, followed by 30 minute incubation at room temperature. Then, 15 nL of test compound in DMSO were dispensed to appropriate wells. The assay was started by performing a basal read of plate fluorescence (470-495 nm excitation and 515-575 nm emission) for 5 seconds on the FLIPR Tetra (Molecular Devices). Then a real time fluorescence measurement was immediately performed for the remaining 140 seconds of the assay. A ratio for each well was calculated to normalize assay data, according to the following mathematical expression:

Ratio = I_Max / I_Min

Where:

I_Max represents the maximum measured fluorescence emission intensity over the 140 second read.
I_Min represents the minimum (basal) measured fluorescence emission intensity before compound was added.

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

%_Activation = ( ( Ratio_Test_Compound - Median_Ratio_Low_Control ) / ( Median_Ratio_High_Control - Median_Ratio_Low_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 Acetylcholine (EC100) and DMSO.

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 the entire run, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % activation than the entire screen's 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 100-1, and for inactive compounds 1-0.

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.
High_Control is defined as wells containing ABHD4 mutant protein, DMSO and FP-Rh.
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 100-6, for inactive 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. 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 modulate well fluorescence. All test compound concentrations reported above and below are nominal; the specific test concentration(s) for a particular compound may vary based upon the actual sample provided by the MLSMR.

External ID: CHRM1_PAM_FLUO8_1536_1X%ACT PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) and increase activity of the human M1 muscarinic receptor (CHRM1; M1) in cells pre-treated with a known agonist. In this assay, CHO-K1 cells stably expressing human M1 are loaded with the Fluo-8 calcium indicator dye, followed by addition of test compounds and subsequent treatment with the activator acetylcholine at a concentration that results in 20% activation (EC20). As designed, compounds that act as CHRM1 PAMs will increase calcium mobilization, resulting in increased intracellular calcium and relative fluorescence of the indicator dye beyond that of the EC20 of acetylcholine. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 3 micromolar.

Protocol Summary:

The CHO-hM1 cell line was routinely cultured in T-175 sq cm flasks at 37 degrees C and 95% relative humidity (RH). The growth media consisted of Ham's F-12 Nutrient Media (F-12) supplemented with 10% v/v heat-inactivated qualified fetal bovine serum, 20 mM HEPES, 50 micrograms/mL Geneticin, and 1X antibiotic mix (penicillin and streptomycin).

The day before the assay 3000 cells in 3 microliters of growth media were seeded into each well of 1536 well microtiter plates and allowed to incubate at 37 degrees C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH for 17-24 hours. Next, 2 microliters of the fluorogenic Fluo-8 intracellular calcium indicator mixture (prepared according to the manufacturer's protocol) was added to each well. Plates were then incubated for 1 hour at 37 degrees C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH, followed by 30 minute incubation at room temperature. Then, 15 nL of test compound in DMSO were transferred to appropriate wells. The assay was started by performing a basal read of plate fluorescence (470-495 nm excitation and 515-575 nm emission) for 5 seconds on the FLIPR Tetra (Molecular Devices) prior to all wells being treated with an EC20 concentration of acetylcholine. Then a real time fluorescence measurement was immediately performed for the remaining 140 seconds of the assay. A ratio for each well was calculated to normalize assay data, according to the following mathematical expression:

Ratio = I_Max / I_Min

Where:

I_Max represents the maximum measured fluorescence emission intensity over the 140 second read and;
I_Min represents the minimum (basal) measured fluorescence emission intensity before compound was added.

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

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

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing test compound.
Low_Control is defined as wells containing Acetylcholine at EC20 and DMSO.
High_Control is defined as wells containing Acetylcholine (EC100) and DMSO.

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 on an individual plate basis, i.e. any compound that exhibited greater % activation than the plate based cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

The inactive compounds of this assay have an activity score range of 0 to 78 and the active compounds have an activity score range of 50 to 100.

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

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.

Then normalized data was corrected to remove systematic plate patterns due to artifacts such as dispensing tip issues etc. Further information about data correction is available at http://www.genedata.com/products/screener.html.

To simplify the distinction between the inactives of the primary screen and of the confirmatory screening stage, the Tiered Activity Scoring System was developed and implemented.

Activity Scoring
Activity scoring rules were devised to take into consideration compound efficacy, its potential interference with the assay and the screening stage that the data was obtained. Details of the Scoring System will be published elsewhere. Briefly, the outline of the scoring system utilized for the assay is as follows:
1) First tier (0-40 range) is reserved for primary screening data. The score is correlated with % activity in the assay:
a. If outcome of the primary screen is inactive, then the assigned score is 0
b. If outcome of the primary screen is inconclusive, then the assigned score is 10
c. If outcome of the primary screen is active, then the assigned score is 20
Scoring for Single concentration confirmation screening is not applicable to this assay.
d. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is inactive, then the assigned score is 21
e. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is inconclusive, then the assigned score is 25
f. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is active, then the assigned score is 30
This scoring system helps track the stage of the testing of a particular SID. For the primary hits which are available for confirmation, their scores will be greater than 20. For those which are not further confirmed, their score will stay under 21.

2) Second tier (41-80 range) is reserved for dose-response confirmation data and is not applicable in this assay

3) Third tier (81-100 range) is reserved for resynthesized true positives and their analogues and is not applicable in this assay

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: GDH-TPI_INH_ABS_1536_1X%INH CSRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this biochemical counterscreen is to determine whether compounds act as absorbance assay artifacts or are non-selective. This assay also serves as a counterscreen for a set of ongoing high throughput primary experiments entitled, "Absorbance-based biochemical primary high throughput screening assay to identify inhibitors of the aldolase of M. tuberculosis."

This counterscreen is similar in format to the aforementioned assay with the only two following differences: (i) the fructose-1,6-bisphosphate substrate is replaced with glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate, a product of its conversion by FBA and (ii) no (FBA) is used. The counterscreen hence recapitulates the two steps involved in the monitoring of FBA activity through the conversion of FB into the triose product glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate (G3P), which would be converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) by the helper enzyme triose phosphate isomerase (TPI). A second helper enzyme, glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (GDH), converts the dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol-3-phosphate with the concomitant oxidation of NADH to NAD, which is monitored by measuring the absorbance at 340 nm. In this new assay format, the A340 is independent of FBA activity, hence compounds that reduce absorbance at 340 nm are either absorbance artifacts or helper enzyme inhibitors that will not be pursued. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 4.78 uM.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 5 uL /well of Buffer A (50 mM HEPES, 0.01% Triton X-100, 10% Glycerol, pH8.0) supplemented with 400 nM ZnCl2,240 uM NADH and the helper enzymes GDH-TPI (4 U/mL) was dispensed into all wells of a 1536-well plate except the "No enzyme" wells that contained the same supplemented buffer but no GDH-TPI enzymes. Next, 48 nL of test compounds were then delivered in each well using a PinTool. The assay was then initiated by dispensing 5 uL of Buffer A supplemented with 240 uM of the substrate glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P). Plates were incubated at room temperature for 20 minutes before A340 was measured using the EnVision plate reader (Perkin Elmer).

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

%Inhibition = 100 * ( ( Test_Compound - Median_Low_Control ) / ( Median_High_Control - Median_Low_Control ) )

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells treated with test compounds.
Low_Control is defined as wells treated with DMSO.
High_Control is defined as wells with no GDH-TPI enzyme.

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 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 the cutoff parameter was declared active.

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

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

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-13, and for inactive compounds 13-0.

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.

External ID: HGDAF12_AG_LUMI_1536_1X%ACT PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as agonists of the nuclear receptor daf-12. In this assay, CV-1cells are co-transfected with a GAL4-responsive reporter plasmid (UAS-tk-luc) and expression vector encoding GAL4-hgDAF12. The ability of compounds to increase transcriptional activity is assessed by measuring luciferase expression from the reporter gene plasmid. Compounds were tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 6.8 micromolar.

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 8 ug of the hgDAF12-expressing vector, 20 ug of the MH1000-tk-luc reporter plasmid and 80 uL of transfection reagent. 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.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-22, and for inactive compounds 22-0.

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.

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 modulate well fluorescence. All test compound concentrations reported above and below are nominal; the specific test concentration(s) for a particular compound may vary based upon the actual sample provided by the MLSMR.

Comment: Compounds that demonstrated a corrected %Activity of >= 50% at 5 uM concentration are defined as actives in this assay.

The experimental values were normalized by the difference between values from neutral and stimulator control wells in each plate. Then normalized data was corrected to remove systematic plate patterns due to artifacts such as dispensing tip issues etc. Further information about data correction is available at http://www.genedata.com/products/screener.html.

To simplify the distinction between the inactives of the primary screen and of the confirmatory screening stage, the Tiered Activity Scoring System was developed and implemented. Its utilization for the assay is described below.

Activity Scoring
Activity scoring rules were devised to take into consideration compound efficacy, its potential interference with the assay and the screening stage that the data was obtained. Details of the Scoring System will be published elsewhere. Briefly, the outline of the scoring system utilized for the assay is as follows:
1) First tier (0-40 range) is reserved for primary and single-concentration confirmation screening data.
a. If outcome of the primary screen is inactive, then the assigned score is 0
b. If outcome of the primary screen is inconclusive, then the assigned score is 10
c. If outcome of the primary screen is active, then the assigned score is 20
d. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is inactive, then the assigned score is 21
e. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is inconclusive, then the assigned score is 25
f. If outcome of the single-concentration confirmation screen is active, then the assigned score is 30.
This scoring system helps track the stage of the testing of a particular SID. For the primary hits which are available for confirmation, their scores will be greater than 20. For those which are not further confirmed, their score will stay under 21.

2) Second tier (41-80 range) is reserved for dose-response confirmation data and is not applicable in this assay

3) Third tier (81-100 range) is reserved for resynthesized true positives and their analogues and is not applicable in this assay

External ID: CHRM1_ANT_FLUO8_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as antagonists and decrease activity of the human M1 muscarinic receptor (CHRM1; M1) that have been pre-treated with a known agonist, with the end result being a decrease in intracellular calcium. In this assay, CHO-K1 cells stably expressing human M1 are loaded with the Fluo-8 calcium indicator dye. Compounds are added followed by treatment with the activator acetylcholine at a concentration that results in 80% activation (Ec80). As designed, compounds that act as CHRM1 antagonists will decrease calcium mobilization, resulting in decreased relative fluorescence of the indicator dye below that of the Ec80 of acetylcholine. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 3 uM.

Protocol Summary:

The CHO-hM1 cell line was routinely cultured in T-175 sq cm flasks at 37 C and 95% relative humidity (RH). The growth media consisted of Ham's F-12 Nutrient Media (F-12) supplemented with 10% v/v heat-inactivated qualified fetal bovine serum, 20 mM HEPES, 50 ug/mL Geneticin, and 1X antibiotic mix (penicillin and streptomycin).

The day before the assay 3000 cells in 3 uL of growth media were seeded into each well of 1536 well microtiter plates and allowed to incubate at 37 C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH for 17-24 hours. Next, 2 uL of the fluorogenic Fluo-8 intracellular calcium indicator mixture (prepared according to the manufacturer's protocol) was added to each well. Plates were then incubated for 1 hour at 37 C, 5% CO2, and 95 % RH, followed by 30 minute incubation at room temperature. Then, 15 nL of test compound in DMSO were transferred to appropriate wells. The assay was started by performing a basal read of plate fluorescence (470 - 495 nm excitation and 515 - 575 nm emission) for 5 seconds on the FLIPR Tetra (Molecular Devices) prior to all wells being treated with an EC80 concentration of acetylcholine. Then a real time fluorescence measurement was immediately performed for the remaining 140 seconds of the assay.

Hits for this assay were determined according to the following mathematical expression:

Ratio = I_Max / I_Min

Where:

I_Max represents the maximum measured fluorescence emission intensity over the 140 second read and,
I_Min represents the minimum (basal) measured fluorescence emission intensity before compound was added.

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

%_Inhibition = ( 1 - ( Ratio Test_Compound - Median_Ratio_High_Control ) / ( Median_Ratio_Low_Control - Median_Ratio_High_Control ) ) ) * 100

Where:

Test_Compound is defined as wells containing test compound.
Low_Control is defined as wells containing Ec80 of acetylcholine and DMSO.
High_Control is defined as wells containing DMSO.

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 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 inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-7, and for inactive compounds 80-0.

In this assay not all plates were run in the same batch. This resulted in batch-to-batch variation among the different batches of plates, thereby necessitating the use of a plate-based activity cutoff. For this reason the inactive and active scores overlap.

External ID: ALD_INH_FLINT_1536_1X%INH PRUN

Protocol: Assay Overview:

The purpose of this assay is to identify compounds that act as inhibitors of fructose bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) of M. tuberculosis, as monitored by loss (oxidation) of NADH in an enzymatic reaction. Fructose bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) catalyzes the conversion of fructose bisphosphate (FB) into the triose product glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate (G3P) in a reversible fashion. The G3P is converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) by the helper enzyme triose phosphate isomerase (TPI). A second helper enzyme, glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase (GDH), converts the dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol-3-phosphate with the concomitant oxidation of NADH to NAD, and thus the FBA activity is monitored by the reduction of well fluorescence as measured at 450 nm upon excitation at 340 nm. Compounds are tested in singlicate at a final nominal concentration of 1 uM.

Protocol Summary:

Prior to the start of the assay, 5 uL /well of Buffer A (50 mM HEPES, 0.01% Triton X-100, 10% Glycerol, pH8.0) supplemented with 140 ng/mL FBA, 400 nM ZnCl2, 160 uM NADH and the helper enzymes GDH-TPI (4 U/mL) was dispensed into all wells of a 1536-well plate. Next, 10 nL of test compounds were delivered to each well using a PinTool. DMSO only was dispensed to negative control wells whereas a final concentration of 75 nM of reference compound TD3 was dispensed as a positive control. The assay was then initiated by dispensing 5 uL of Buffer A supplemented with 40 uM of FBP substrate. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 20 minutes before fluorescence was measured (Ex. 340 nm; Em. 450 nm) using the ViewLux plate reader (Perkin Elmer).

The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows:

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

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 Compound TD3 (75 nM final)

PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:

Two values were calculated: (1) the average percent inhibition of all test compounds and (2) three times their standard deviation. The sum of these two values was used as a cutoff parameter. Any compound that exhibited a greater % inhibition than this cutoff parameter was declared active.

Potential fluorescent compounds that showed a percent inhibition value significantly higher than the one calculated for the High_Control (i.e. greater than the average % inhibition +/- 3 S.D. of the High_Control wells) were removed from the hit-cutoff calculation.

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

The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-1, and for inactive compounds 1-0.

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, and compounds that quench or emit fluorescence within the well. All test compound concentrations reported are nominal; the specific concentration for a particular test compound may vary based upon the actual sample provided by the MLSMR.
