Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Cell Free Assay
Description:  In order to eliminate the permeability barrier inherent to the WT7 and SCHH cell-based assays a cell-free system was also established to access compound activity. A sequence containing the full length human PCSK9 (NCBI reference identifier, NM-174936.3, where coding sequence start annotated at position 363) along with 84 additional 3 nucleotides, comprising a V5 tag and polylinkinker followed by an in frame modified firefly luciferase reporter (corresponding to nucleotide positions 283-1929 of pGL3, Gen Bank reference identifier JN542721.1) was cloned into the pT7CFE1 expression vector (ThermoScientific). The construct was then in-vitro transcribed using the MEGAscript T7 Kit (Life Technologies) and RNA subsequently purified incorporating the MEGAclear Kit (Life Technologies) according to manufacturer's protocols. HeLa cell lysates were prepared following the protocols described by Mikami (reference is Cell-Free Protein Synthesis Systems with Extracts from Cultured Human Cells, S. Mikami, T. Kobayashi and H. Imataka; from Methods in Molecular Biology, vol. 607, pages 43-52, Y. Endo et al. (eds.), Humana Press, 2010) with the following modifications.
