| Description: | The scintillation Proximity Assay (SPA) method was used to determine the inhibitory effect of compounds on the activity of PDE4D catalytic domain. Human PDE4D catalytic domain protein was obtained by expression and purification in E. coli. The positive compound Apremilast was purchased from Topscience Biochemical, Microplate Scintillation Counter (MicroBeta2, Perkin Elmer), constant temperature water bath (DK420, Shanghai Medical Device Factory), Micro-vibrator (XW-80A, Shanghai Jingke Industrial Co., Ltd.) are a public instrument in the radioactive laboratory, and the step-by-step pipette (Multipette Plus, Eppendorf) and supporting tips were purchased from Ebende Biotechnology Company, 3.5. [3H]-cAMP, scintillation beads (RPNQO150, Perkin Elmer), and 96-well scintillation microplates (Isoplate-96, Perkin Elmer) were purchased from Perkin Elmer Company. 10× SPA buffer was prepared in the laboratory (500 mM Tris pH7.5, 83 mM MgCl2, 17 mM EGTA).In the experiment, 60 μl water and 10 μl reaction solution were added into 100 μl total volume reaction to achieve the final concentration of each component being 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 8.3 mM MgCl2, 1.7 mM EGTA, 10 μl compound and 10 μl enzyme (0.1 ng/ul). Finally, 10 μl [3H]-cAMP (0.005 μCi/μl) was added and incubated for 30 min at 30° C. in a water bath. 50 μl SPA beads was added to quench the reaction, shaked appropriately, and stood for 20 minutes. A microplate scintillation counter was used |
