Biochemical kinase assays |
c-Met catalytic activity is quantitated using a continuous-coupled spectrophotometric assay in which the time-dependent production of ADP by c-Met is determined by analysis of the rate of consumption of NADH. NADH consumption is measured by a decrease in absorbance at 340 nm by spectrophotometry at designated time points. To determine Ki values, PF-2341066 is introduced into test wells at various concentrations in the presence of assay reagents and incubated for 10 minutes at 37 °C. The assay is initiated by the addition of the c-Met enzyme. |
Cell Assay

Cell Lines |
GTL-16 gastric carcinoma cells and T47D breast carcinoma cells |
Concentrations |
0-256 nM |
Incubation Time |
1 hour |
Methods |
Cells including GTL-16 gastric carcinoma cells and T47D breast carcinoma cells are seeded in 96-well plates in media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and transferred to serum-free media [with 0.04% bovine serum albumin (BSA)] after 24 hours. In experiments investigating ligand-dependent RTK phosphorylation, corresponding growth factors are added for up to 20 minutes. After incubation of cells with PF-2341066 for 1 hour and/or appropriate ligands for the designated times, cells are washed once with HBSS supplemented with 1 mM Na3VO4, and protein lysates are generated from cells. Subsequently, phosphorylation of selected protein kinases is assessed by a sandwich ELISA method using specific capture antibodies used to coat 96-well plates and a detection antibody specific for phosphorylated tyrosine residues. Antibody-coated plates are (a) incubated in the presence of protein lysates at 4 °C overnight; (b) washed seven times in 1% Tween 20 in PBS; (c) incubated in a horseradish peroxidase–conjugated anti–total-phosphotyrosine (PY-20) antibody (1:500) for 30 min; (d) washed seven times again; (e) incubated in 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine peroxidase substrate to initiate a colorimetric reaction that is stopped by adding 0.09 N H2SO4; and (f) measured for absorbance in 450 nm using a spectrophotometer. |
