| | Bub1 High ATP Kinase Assay |
| Description: | For the assay 50 nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into either a black low volume 384 well microtiter plate or a black 1536well microtiter plate (both Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 3 μl of a solution of adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP, 3.33 mM=>final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume is 2 mM) and substrate (1.67 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume is 1 μM) in aqueous assay buffer [50 mM Tris/HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM magnesium chloride (MgCl2), 200 mM potassium chloride (KCl), 1.0 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), 0.1 mM sodium ortho-vanadate, 1% (v/v) glycerol, 0.01% (w/v) bovine serum albumine (BSA), 0.005% (v/v) Trition X-100 (Sigma), 1× Complete EDTA-free protease inhibitor mixture (Roche)] were added. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of 2 μl of a solution of Bub1 in assay buffer and the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 60 min at 22° C. The concentration of Bub1 was adjusted depending of the activity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assay in the linear range, a typical concentration is about 200 ng/ml. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 3 μl of a solution of TR-FRET detection reagents (0.167 μM streptavidine-XL665 [Cisbio Bioassays, Codolet, France] and 1.67 nM anti-phosho-Serine antibody [Merck Millipore, cat. #35-002] and 0.67 nM LANCE EU-W1024 labeled anti-mouse IgG antibody [Perkin-Elmer, product no. AD0077, as an alternative a Terbium-cryptate-labeled anti-mouse IgG antibody from Cisbio Bioassays can be used]) in an aqueous EDTA-solution (83.3 mM EDTA, 0.2% (w/v) bovine serum albumin in 100 mM HEPES pH 7.5). The resulting mixture was incubated 1 h at 22° C. to allow the formation of complex between the phosphorylated biotinylated peptide and the detection reagents. Subsequently the amount of phosphorylated substrate was evaluated by measurement of the resonance energy transfer from the Eu-chelate to the streptavidine-XL. |
