In vitro kinase assays
|
We carried out in vitro kinase assays (except for Cdc28) in the presence of 0.2 μCi/μL [γ-32P]ATP at low ATP concentration (10 nM) so that IC50 values represent a rough measure of the inhibition constant (Ki). Measurement of inhibitor IC50 values were done as Liu, Y. et al. described. Purified Cdc28-His6 (1 nM) and MBP-Clb2 (3 nM) were incubated for 10 min at 23°C in a 25 μL reaction mixture containing 5 μg histone H1, 1 μCi of [γ-32P]ATP (1 μCi per 10 μM and 1μCi per 1 mM), and varying concentrations of 1-NM-PP1 in kinase buffer (25mM HEPES-NaOH pH 7.4, 10mM NaCl, 10mM MgCl2 and 1mM dithiothreitol). Reaction products were analysed by 15% SDS-PAGE followed by autoradiography. For the determination of Cdc28 kinetic constants, varying concentrations of [γ-32P] ATP (1 μCi per 100 μM) were incubated and analysed as above.
