| Fluorescence Polarization Anisotropy Competition Assay |
Description: | Fluorescence Polarization Anisotropy Competition Assay. Anisotropy measurements were carried out in 384-well, black, flat-bottom plates (Greiner Bio-one, Monroe, N.C., USA). The assay was run using either a fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled BH3 peptide derived from Bak (FITC-AHx-GQVGRQLAIIGDDINR-NH2) or a fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled BH3 peptide derived from Bim (FITC-AHx-EARIAQELRRIGDEFNETYTR-NH2)that were purchased from GenScript (Piscataway, N.J.) at >95% purity and used without further purification. 10 nM FITC-Bak peptide and 15 nM recombinant Mcl-1 (residues 172-327) were added to assay buffer (3 mM dithiothreitol, 50 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5). The Bim based assay was run with 1 nM FITC-Bim peptide and 1.5 nM recombinant Mcl-1 (residues 172-327) added to assay buffer (20 mM TRIS pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 3 mM DTT, 0.01% CHAPS). For selectivity assays, 40 nM Bcl-2 (residues 1-207 A96T,G110R, Δ35-91, replaced with Bcl-xL35-50) or 4 nM Bcl-xL (residues 1-209, loop 45-86 deleted) were incubated with 10 nM FITC-Bak in assay buffer. Compounds are diluted in DMSO in a 10-point, 3-fold serial dilution scheme. For the FITC-BAK assay 2.5 uL compound is added to 47.5 μL of assay buffer containing FITC-Bak and protein, for a final DMSO concentration of 5% and a top concentration of 20 μM. A FITC-Bak peptide alone (100% inhibition) and peptide plus protein (0% inhibition) control is included on each assay plate. For the FITC-Bim assay, compound is added to 40 uL of assay buffer containing protein, 15 minutes prior to addition of 10 μL of the FITC-Bim peptide, for a final DMSO concentration of 0.165% and a top concentration of 200 nM. A FITC-Bim peptide alone (100% inhibition) and peptide plus protein (0% inhibition) control is included on each assay plate. The plate was mixed and incubated for 90 minutes at room temperature. |
