Biological Information

Background Information:

Myotonic dystrophy (DM1) is the most common form of muscular dystrophy in adults, caused by amplification of an unstable (CTG)n repeat in the 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the DM1 protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) is a serine threonine kinase encoded by the DM-1 locus.

Testing Information

Procedure Summary:

DMPK (h) is incubated with 8 mM MOPS pH 7.0, 0.2 mM EDTA, 0.1% v/v Triton X-100, 250 µM KKSRGDYMTMQIG, 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:

250 uM KKSRGDYMTMQIG

Tracer:

33P

ATP Concentration:

[ATP]= 10µM (Km= 9.21µM )

Incubation:

40 min at Room temperature

Control Inhibitor:

Staurosporine

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.

Minimum Order Quantity:

2

Turnaround Time

Standard:

6 Business Days

Service Scheduling Note:

Assay is run on a weekly schedule beginning on Friday.  Compounds and purchase order must be received on or before 13:00 CET Thursday for the order to be included on the service run that begins on Friday of the same week.

Clinical Relevance

Therapeutic Area:

Oncology/Immuno-Oncology

Adverse / Beneficial Action:

Permanent overexpression of DMPK may cause myotonic myopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with dysrhythmia and hypotension. DMPK inhibition, however, may cause typical myotonic dystrophy symptoms and heart conduction defects.
