Biological Information

Background Information:

Checkpoint kinase (CHK) is activated by a broad spectrum of DNA-damaging agents, including DNA-strand-breaking agents such as ionizing radiation and topoisomerase inhibitors, and those agents that cause replication stress such as ultraviolet light, hydroxyurea and 5-fluorouracil. CHK2 might have a redundant and supportive role in checkpoints, but its role in ionizing radiation-induced apoptosis is more prominent. However, its role in other DNA-damage-induced apoptosis mechanisms is less well established. CHK2 inhibitors are expected to sensitize proliferating cells to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis.

Testing Information

Procedure Summary:

CHK2 (I157T) (h) is incubated with 8 mM MOPS pH 7.0, 0.2 mM EDTA, 100 µM KKKVSRSGLYRSPSMPENLNRPR, 10 mM MgAcetate and [gamma-33P]-ATP (specific activity and concentration as required). The reaction is initiated by the addition of the Mg/ATP mix. After incubation for 40 minutes at room temperature, the reaction is stopped by the addition of phosphoric acid to a concentration of 0.5%. An aliquot of the reaction is then spotted onto a filter and washed four times for 4 minutes in 0.425% phosphoric acid and once in methanol prior to drying and scintillation counting.

Substrate:

100 µM KKKVSRSGLYRSPSMPENLNRPR

Tracer:

33P

ATP Concentration:

[ATP]= 10µM (Km= 179.7µM )

Incubation:

40 min at Room temperature

Control Inhibitor:

Cdk1/2 Inhibitor III

Test Sample Requirements:

Please provide compounds dissolved in 100% DMSO (PBS or HBSS prohibited).
Stock solution should be ≥50× the final assay concentration (a 10 mM stock is also acceptable).
Required volume:
– <60 kinase assays: 120 µL of 50× stock
– ≥60 assays: 420 µL of 50× stock
If you supply 10 mM stocks or powder (pre-weighed), we will apply the appropriate conversion.
For batches of ~50 compounds supplied as solids, the TAT will be extended.
