| | Ubiquitin-Rhodamine 110 Assay for USP30 Activity |
| Description: | The assay was performed in a final volume of 9 μL in assay buffer containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0, (IM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 solution; Corning 46-031-CM)), 1 mM GSH (L-glutathione reduced, Sigma-Aldrich, G4251-100G), 0.03% BGG (0.22 μM filtered, Sigma, G7516-25G), and 0.01% Triton X-100 (Sigma, T9284-10L). Nanoliter quantities of 10-point, 3-fold serial dilution in DMSO were pre-dispensed into 1536 assay plates (Corning, #3724BC) for a final test concentration of 25 μM to 1.3 nM, top to lowest dose, respectively. Concentration and incubation times were optimized for the maximal signal-to-background while maintaining initial velocity conditions at a fixed substrate concentration. The final concentration of USP30 (human recombinant USP30, Boston Biochem, cat. #E-582) in the assay was 0.2 nM. Final substrate (Ub-Rh110; Ubiquitin-Rhodamine 110, UbiQ-126) concentration was 25 nM with [Ub-Rh110]<<Km. 3 μL of 2×USP30 was added to assay plates (pre-stamped with compound), preincubated for 30 minutes and then treated with 3 μL of 2×Ub-Rh110. Plates were incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature before addition of 3 μL of stop solution (final concentration of 10 mM citric acid (Sigma, 251275-500G)). Fluorescence was read on the Envision (excitation at 485 nm and emission at 535 nm; Perkin Elmer) or on the PheraSTAR (excitation at 485 nm and emission at 535 nm; BMG Labtech) fluorescence reader. |
