Selonsertib (GS-4997) is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), with potential anti-inflammatory, antineoplastic and anti-fibrotic activities.

ASK1:8.3(pIC50)

Kinase assays mTOR.: Reagents are prepared as follows:"Simple Tor buffer": 10 mM Tris pH 7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% Tween-20, 1 mM DTT. Recombinant mTOR is diluted in this buffer to an assay concentration of 0.200ug/mL. ATP/Substrate solution: 0.075 mM ATP, 12.5 mM MnCl2, 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 50 mM β-GOP, 250 nM Microcystin LR, 0.25 mM EDTA, 5 mM DTT, and 3.5 μg/mL GST-p70S6. Dilution Curve: A 10-point, 1:3 dilution of compounds are prepared in neat DMSO at 50 times the final assay concentration. Detection reagent mix: 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4 0.01% Triton X-100, 0.01% BSA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 12.7 ug/mL Cy5-anti-GST antibody, 9 ng/ml anti-phospho p70S6 antibody (Thr389), 627ng/mL anti-mouse IgG labeled with Lance Eu. To 20 uL of the Simple Tor buffer is added 0.5 uL of the compound Dilution Curve in DMSO. The final concentration range for compound is 30 to 0.0015 μM. To initiate the reaction, 5 μL of the ATP/substrate solution is added to the above. The reaction is allowed to run for 60 minutes. The assay is stopped by adding 5 μL of 60 mM EDTA. Ten (10) μL of detection reagent mix is then added, and the mixture is allowed to sit at least 2 hours before reading on a Perkin Elmer Envision microplate reader set to detect Europium-based TR-FRET.

DMSO: 31.25 mg/mL (70.15 mM), Sonication is recommended.

Ethanol: 23 mg/mL (51.63 mM), Sonication is recommended.

H2O: < 1 mg/mL (insoluble or slightly soluble)

10% DMSO+40% PEG300+5% Tween 80+45% Saline: 1 mg/mL (2.24 mM), Sonication is recommended.
