Introduction
Over the last 15 years, a significant number of human diseases such as cancers have been attributed to defects in cellular signaling pathways. This observation has dramatically accelerated efforts towards the development of new therapeutic approaches.
Tyrosine kinases have been shown to play a crucial role in signal transduction pathways and have been implicated as kay players in many „proliferative disorders” including cancer. Inhibitors designed against potential novel kinase targets are in in the focus of the drug discovery today.
Aims
Materials and Methods
Assay was performed in 96-well plate format 1. Substrate Poly-Glu-Tyr (Sigma) was
attached to the bottom of the plates2. Enzyme reaction was performed in the
presence of ATP (Sigma) at 37°C for 30 minutes
3. Enzymes: Recombinant PDGFR was expressed in baculovirus transected Sf9 expression system (ProQinase)
EGFR-GST with recombinant technique 4. Phosphorylated substrate was detected by
HRP-conjugated anti-P-Tyr antibody and OPD
Conclusions
The present ELISA based non-radioactive TK assay offers a reproductable, sensitive and rapid method to measure TK activity and enables large-scale screening of PDGFR and EGFR inhibitors. Based on the success of the initial screening tests form one nested chemical library, further screens form our extended validation library will be performed along with QSAR optimizations to gain preclinical lead candidates.
Results-Summary
Screening
A referenced inhibitors [SU- 6668(oxindol) PDGFR, Grefitinib (ZD 1893) EGFR] was tested in five concentrations (32,8-1,28 µM). The results were expressed as a percentage value of the control (T/C%)
Our aim was to screen large numbers of inhibitory
compounds with an ELISA- based non-radioactive
tyrosine kinase assay. To meet the needs of high
amount enzyme arising in this assay technology,
custom production of the recombinant enzyme was
nessesary. We establised a recombinant expression
system. Mass production of recombinant proteins
will enable scale up in the testing processes with
future potential of full automation.
