Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Assay for Inhibition of CDK4/CyclinD1
Description:  The CDK4 enzyme assay for IC50 determination was performed as follows. Microfluidic kinase detection technology (Caliper) was used to monitor the phosphorylation of peptide substrate by CDK4/CyclinD1. The total reaction volume was 15 μL containing buffer A (100 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 0.1% BSA, 0.01% Triton X-100, 1 mM DTT, 10 mM MgCl2, 10 μM Sodium Orthovanadate, 10 μM Beta-Glycerophosphate), 200 μM ATP, 1 nM CDK4/CyclinD1 (Thermofisher, PR8064A), 1 μM FL-34 (5-FAM-RRRFRPASPLRGPPK), and the test compound at appropriate dilutions in DMSO. All components were added to the 384-well plate (Corning, 4514), and incubated at Room Temperature for 3 hours. The reaction was terminated by addition of 15 μL Stop Buffer (180 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 20 mM EDTA, Coating-3 reagent (PerkinElmer, 760050)). The plate was then loaded on Caliper EZ Reader (EZ Reader II, PerkinElmer, HD-4HYSG2772), and the reaction mixtures including substrate and product were sipped into the microfluidic chip for separation and detection. The IC50 values of the test compound were determined by fitting the inhibition curves by 4 parameter sigmoidal dose-response model using the Xlfit5/GraphPad Prism 5 software.
