Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Reporter Assay
Description:  The reporter assay was performed by transiently transfecting HEK293T cells with 5 μg of pBIND-RORγt LBD or pBIND-RORγt LBD-AF2 and 5 μg pGL4.31 (Promega Cat no. C935A) using Fugene 6 (Invitrogen Cat no. E2691) at a 1:6 ratio of DNA:Fugene 6 in a T-75 flask in which cells were at least 80% confluent. Twenty four hours after bulk transfection, cells were plated into 96-well plates at 50,000 cells/well in phenol-red free DMEM containing 5% Lipid Reduced FCS and Pen/Strep. Six hours after plating, cells were treated with compounds for 24 hours. Media was removed and cells were lysed with 50 μL 1× Glo Lysis Buffer (Promega). Dual Glo Luciferase Reagent (50 μL/well) was then added and firefly luciferase luminescence was read on an Envision after a ten minute incubation. Finally, Stop and Glo reagent (50 μL/well) was added and renilla luciferase luminescence was read on an Envision after a ten minute incubation.
