Definitions

  • the present invention relates to methods for detecting and/or measuring the activity of a specific kinase of interest.
  • Protein kinases are believed to play a role in the formation of many different diseases. Therefore, new drug candidates and treatment protocols are being identified using methods for understanding and identifying protein kinase activity and molecules that affect that activity.
  • a protein kinase catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to a serine, threonine or tyrosine residue in a peptide or protein sequence.
  • ATP adenosine triphosphate
  • Protein kinases are involved in all aspects of regulation within cells. The traditional method for assaying kinase activity is discontinuous and requires 32 P-labelled ATP, which requires special handling.
  • kinase recognition motif or amino acid sequence that a particular kinase recognizes and phosphorylates. Once captured, ATP can be added to the assay and a signaling moiety can then generate or alter a signal upon a phosphorylation event.
  • each kinase may be specific for a particular kinase recognition motif; however, there are some sequence similarities in the amino acid sequences of the kinase recognition motif surrounding the target amino acid among kinases.
  • kinase recognition motif to capture a particular kinase may result in capturing a population of different kinases that all recognize the same or similar kinase recognition motif.
  • the results of these assays have a propensity to generate false positive results when trying to identify and/or measure the activity of a specific kinase.
  • What is needed, therefore, is a method of improving the specificity of the kinase activity assays to lower the incidences of false positives, thus adding value to assay results that assess kinase activity.
  • the present invention relates to methods for detecting and/or measuring the activity of a specific kinase, with the methods comprising contacting one or more kinases with a binding agent to isolate a specific kinase of interest.
  • the isolated kinase is then contacted with a kinase activity sensor, where the kinase activity sensor is comprised of a kinase recognition motif that is capable of being recognized by the isolated kinase, and at least one phosphorylation site.
  • the isolated kinase if present, phosphorylates the amino acid target of the kinase activity sensor and levels of the phosphorylated amino acid target can then be quantified.

  • kinase activity sensor comprises at least one peptide capable of being phosphorylated and a chelator
  • kinase activity sensor forms a ternary complex with the metal ion and phosphorylated peptide to generate a detectable signal
  • the binding agent comprises an antibody or a functional fragment thereof.
  • the support is glass, plastic, metal, polymeric particle, polymeric gel or a polymeric membrane.

  • PC12 cells were seeded in 100 mm Petri dishes and grown in DMEM plus 2.5% fetal bovine serum and 15% horse serum. Cells were then treated with NGF (50 ng/mL, 15 minutes) or with control media. Cell lysates were prepared and B-Raf activity was assayed as described in Example 3. The NGF-treated sample produced fluorescence signals that reached a plateau at 150 minutes of incubation (3200 RFU), while the control group reached a plateau at 240 minutes after the reaction started. Activity was assayed as described in the Assay Procedure section using a cascade reaction with SEQ ID NO. 27, used to measure the level of activated MK2 enzyme. Results are shown in Figure 9.
  • NIH3T3 cells were seeded in 100 mm Petri dishes and grown in DMEM plus 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells then were treated with PDGF (50 ng/mL, 15 minutes) or with control media. Cell lysates then were prepared and ERKl/2 activity was assayed as described in Example 1. The PDGF-treated sample produced a fluorescence signal of 3000 RFU that reached a plateau at 335 minutes of incubation, while the control group produced fluorescence signal of 845 RFU. Activity was assayed as described in the Example 3 using a cascade reaction with SEQ ID NO. 27 used to measure the level of activated MK2 enzyme. Results are shown in Figure 10.
  • NIH3T3 cells were seeded in 100 mm Petri dishes and grown in DMEM plus
  • Example 12 Measurement ofp38 MAPK Activity in Crude Lysates from
  • RAW cells were seeded in 100 mm Petri dishes and grown in DMEM plus 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells then were treated with anisomycin (10 ⁇ g/mL, 15 minutes) or with control media. Cell lysates then were prepared and p38 MAPK activity was assayed as described in the Assay Procedures of Example 3. The anisomycin treated sample produced fluorescence signal of 3350 RFU that reached a plateau at 60 minutes of incubation, while the control group produced fluorescence signal of 1250 RFU. Activity was assayed as described in the Assay Procedure section using a cascade reaction with SEQ ID NO. 27 used to measure the level of activated MK2 enzyme. Results are shown in Figure 12.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des procédés de détection et/ou de mesure de l'activité d'une kinase spécifique, ces procédés consistant à mettre en contact une ou plusieurs kinases avec un agent de liaison afin d'isoler une kinase spécifique présentant un intérêt. La kinase isolée est ensuite mise en contact avec un capteur d'activité kinase qui est lui-même constitué d'un motif de reconnaissance pour la kinase pouvant être reconnu par la kinase isolée et d'un site de phosphorylation. La kinase isolée phosphoryle la cible acide aminé du capteur d'activité kinase et les niveaux de l'acide aminé cible phosphorylé peuvent ainsi être quantifiés.
