Summary

孔雀石绿测定方案是一种简单且经济高效的方法,用于发现热休克蛋白 90 (Hsp90) 抑制因子以及其他针对 ATP 依赖性酶的抑制剂化合物。

Abstract

热休克蛋白90(Hsp90)是一种有前途的抗癌靶点,因为它对多种致癌蛋白具有伴侣作用。Hsp90的活性取决于其将三磷酸腺苷(ATP)水解为二磷酸腺苷(ADP)和游离磷酸盐的能力。Hsp90的ATP酶活性与其伴侣功能有关;ATP与Hsp90的N端结构域结合,破坏其结合被认为是抑制Hsp90功能最成功的策略。ATP酶活性可以通过比色孔雀石绿测定法测量,该测定法确定ATP水解形成的游离磷酸盐的量。这里描述了使用孔雀石绿磷酸测定试剂盒测定酵母Hsp90的ATP酶活性的程序。此外,还提供了通过服用格尔达霉素作为真实抑制剂来发现Hsp90抑制剂的详细说明。最后,讨论了该测定方案通过针对酵母Hsp90的抑制剂分子的高通量筛选(HTS)的应用。

Introduction

热休克蛋白90(Hsp90)是一种分子伴侣,可维持负责癌症发展和进展的蛋白质的稳定性。此外,负责抗肿瘤药物耐药性的蛋白质也是Hsp901的客户。Hsp90在所有癌细胞类型(>90%的细胞蛋白)中普遍过度表达,而正常细胞可能占总蛋白的2%以下。此外,癌细胞的Hsp90与共伴侣存在于复合物中,而在正常细胞中,它主要以游离,未复合的状态存在23。近年来,几种Hsp90抑制剂在体外体内研究中已被证明具有senolyticality作用,它们显着改善了小鼠的寿命456上述所有发现都证实了这样一个事实,即Hsp90抑制剂可能对多种癌症类型有效,不良反应更少,产生耐药性的机会也更少。Hsp90的伴侣功能是通过在Hsp90的N端结构域结合ATP并将其水解成ADP和游离磷酸盐7来实现的。发现与Hsp90的ATP结合口袋竞争性结合的小分子成功地抑制了蛋白质的伴侣作用。迄今为止,这仍然是Hsp90抑制的最佳策略,这种抑制剂已达到临床试验的事实支持了这一策略8。其中之一Pimitespib于2022年6月在日本被批准用于治疗胃肠道间质瘤(GIST)9。这是自1994年建立伴侣的成药性以来第一个批准的Hsp90抑制剂10

孔雀石绿测定是一种简单、灵敏、快速且廉价的无机磷酸盐检测程序,适用于针对其所需靶标11 对化合物进行自动化和高通量筛选 (HTS)。该测定已成功用于在小型实验室规模设置以及HTS12,13,14151617中筛选Hsp90抑制剂。该测定使用比色法测定由于Hsp90的ATP酶活性而形成的游离无机磷酸盐。这种定量的基础是在游离磷酸盐和钼之间形成磷钼酸盐复合物,随后与孔雀石绿反应产生绿色(图1)。这种快速的颜色形成是在分光光度计或读板器上测量的,在600-660nm1819之间。

在本协议中,描述了用酵母Hsp90进行孔雀石绿测定以及随后鉴定针对伴侣的抑制剂的程序。首先建立Hsp90成药性的天然产物分子geldanamycin (GA)被视为真正的抑制剂10。由于有大量分子用于测试,HTS已成为当前药物发现计划的一个组成部分。由于迫切需要重新利用药物治疗Covid-19感染,该技术在过去2年中变得更加重要2021。因此,提出了采用孔雀石绿测定法对酵母Hsp90蛋白的分子HTS的详细概述。

Protocol

1. 实验室规模的孔雀石绿色测定 测定缓冲液的制备按照 表1中所示的组合物和制备制备测定缓冲液。 磷酸盐标准品的制备使用孔雀石绿色测定磷酸盐测定试剂盒(储存在4°C)中提供的1mM磷酸盐标准品。 将 40 μL 1 mM 磷酸盐标准品移入 960 μL 超纯水中,以获得 40 μM 磷酸盐溶液(预混溶液)。按照制造商的说明,将预混料溶液与?…

Representative Results

测定结果根据游离磷酸根离子浓度引起的吸光度来解释。由于酵母Hsp90在620nm处水解ATP引起的游离磷酸盐的吸光度被认为是100%ATP酶活性或零百分比蛋白质抑制。蛋白质的抑制导致ATP水解停止(游离磷酸盐减少)。这反映在620nm处的吸光度降低。 实验室规模的孔雀石绿色测定结果磷酸盐标准品的标准图如图 3所示。Hsp90的活性是根据其将ATP水…

Discussion

Hsp90是发现新型抗癌药物分子的重要靶标。自1994年建立成药性以来,已有10、18种分子进入临床试验。目前,有7种分子处于临床试验的不同阶段,或单独使用,或组合22。所有这些小分子都是N端ATP结合抑制剂。抑制伴侣的其他手段(C末端抑制剂,中域抑制剂)的进展不如N末端抑制剂快。因此,N端ATP结合抑制剂化合物仍然有望发展为临床上可销售的分子。此外?…
