| Description: | Ten-point dose-response curves for a subset of compounds shown in Table 1 were determined using a Transcreener EPIGEN Methyltransferase HTS assay using purified EZH2 enzyme (BellBrook Labs). In this assay, the S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) generated by the transfer of the methyl group from S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) to purified histone 3.3 protein by EZH2 is enzymatically converted to AMP, which is detected using a fluorescence polarization readout.Briefly, compounds of the present invention were solubilized in DMSO and a series of 10, three-fold serial dilutions were made for each compound in 15% DMSO. The initial starting concentration for the serial dilutions of each compound was 1.0 μM. Control samples lacking compound, EZH2 enzyme or various reaction components also were prepared and processed in parallel with compound test samples. A panel of dilutions of SAH/SAM also was prepared as a standard curve to ensure the linearity of the assay.An aliquot of each serial dilution of test compound was added to deep 384 well plate containing 5 mg/ml purified EZH2 enzyme (Reaction Biology) in a 15 microliter reaction volume. The plate was pre-incubated at room temperature for 15 min to which 4 μM SAM and 6 mg/ml of full length histone 3.3 protein were added to initiate the enzymatic reaction. The reaction mixture was incubated at 30° C. for three hours during which the SAH produced from the methylation reaction is enzymatically converted to AMP. The reaction was stopped by quenching and a detector buffer containing the coupling enzymes, fluorescent indicator and AMP antibody was added to each well. After 1 hr, the resulting fluorescent output of the assay was read on Tecan Safire2 instrument according to the manufacturer's instructions. |
