Assay optimisation
Endpoint Assay o Measure in the initial rate
Optimal ATP and Peptideo Run at Km to prevent desensitisation to certain
mode of action inhibitors• Km is the concentration of substrate that
leads to half-maximal velocity.
Reagent optimisation o Ca ions, Mg ions, DMSO, Detergent
• Majority of enzymes are saturated with Ca. Unlikely to identify compounds that compete at the Ca site
Km c. 25uM for CDPK5
Quality Control
Robust signalo Identify the dynamic range
Z’= 1-(3*STDEV HC+ 3*STDEV LC) (Mean HC-Mean LC)
Standard compounds o Measured by pIC50
• pIC50=-Log.IC50
o Staurosporine• broad spectrum kinase inhibitor

11 point curve, serial dilution in target assay
Biochemical assay usually pIC50 greater than 5 (10uM)
Look for correlation between cell and target assay
