Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  HCV Replicon Luciferase Assay
Description:  To evaluate compound efficacy, titrated compounds were transferred to sterile 384-well tissue culture treated plates, and the plates were seeded with HCV replicon cells (50 μL at a density of 2.4×103 cells/well) in DMEM containing 4% FBS (final DMSO concentration at 0.5%). After 3 days incubation at 37° C., cells were analyzed for Renilla Luciferase activity using the EnduRen substrate (Promega cat #E6485) according to the manufacturer's directions. Briefly, the EnduRen substrate was diluted in DMEM and then added to the plates to a final concentration of 7.5 μM. The plates were incubated for at least 1 h at 37° C. then read on a Viewlux Imager (PerkinElmer) using a luminescence program. The 50% effective concentration (EC50) was calculated using the four-parameter logistic formula noted above.To assess cytotoxicity of compounds, Cell Titer-Blue (Promega) was added to the EnduRen-containing plates and incubated for at least 4 hrs at 37° C. The fluorescence signal from each well was read using a Viewlux Imager. All CC50 values were calculated using the four-parameter logistic formula.
