Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Surface plasmon resonance (SPR)
Description:  The SPR assay is configured to examine solution inhibition of BCL-2 binding to peptide derivatized sensor surfaces to generate IC50 values as a measure of inhibitor potency. Solution Inhibition Assay Format: Biacore TM A100 (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) was used to conduct all experiments reported herein. Sensor surface preparation and all interaction analyses experiments were performed at 25° C. Reagents were purchased from GE Healthcare. Running buffer containing 10 mM Hepes, pH7.4, 150 mM sodium chloride, 1.25 mM Dithiothreitol, 3% Dimethyl sulfoxide and 0.05% polysorbate 20 were utilized throughout all analyses. Biotinylated BAK, BAD and NOXA peptides were diluted to 10 nM in running buffer and captured onto a sensor surface pre-derivatized with streptavidin (sensor chip SA) to peptide surface densities in the range 50-100 R.U. Peptide captured surfaces were blocked with 50004 PEO2Biotin. A blank detection spot in each flowcell was similarly blocked with PEO2-biotin and served as a reference spot in the competition assay.
