Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Reporter Gene Assay
Description:  A nuclear receptor transactivation assay is performed to quantitate the ability of test compounds to inhibit RORγ transactivation of a luciferase reporter. A similar assay is described in: Khan et al., Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 23 (2013), 532-536. The system uses transiently transfected HEK 293 cells cotransfected with two plasmids (pGL4.3, luc2P/GAL4UAS/Hygro, and pBIND, Gal4DBD hRORC LBD1-3). The positive control is co-transiently transfected with both plasmids, and the negative control contains the pGL4.3 promoter sequence. Assays are assembled in 384 well plates where transiently transfected cells and test compound at varying concentrations are incubated for 20-24 h.The next day, assays plates are taken out and equilibrated at RT for 20-30 minutes. Bright-Glo Luciferase Assay System is used to detect Luciferase production. After addition of Bright GLO detection reagent, the plates are incubated at RT for 20 minutes. The plates are read on an Envision plate reader to measure luminescence signal. The RLU signal is converted to POC relative to control and blank wells.
