(903) Biological activities of several compounds of the present invention were measured according to the methods mentioned blow.

(904) [Preparation and Storage of Solutions of Test Compounds]

(905) A test compound was dissolved or suspended in DMSO so as to be at 10 mM or 1 mM, thereby making a stock solution, which was stored at 20 C. in the dark before being tested.

Test Example 1

(906) [Inhibitory Effect on Cdc7 Protein Kinase]

(907) Measurement of kinase activity was carried out using an MSA assay kit (QuickScout Screening Assist Kit, Carna Biosciences, Inc.).

(908) Assay buffer (20 mM HEPES, 0.01% Triton X-100, 2 mM dithiothreitol, pH 7.5) was used to prepare a substrate mixture solution comprising 4 M of a kinase-reaction substrate (FITC-labeled MCM2 peptide), 40 mM MgCl.sub.2, and 20 M ATP.

(909) The enzyme supplied in the kit (human Cdc7/human ASK complex protein) was diluted in the assay buffer so as to be at 7 nM, thereby preparing an enzyme solution.

(910) The stock solution of each test compound was diluted in DMSO to prepare diluted DMSO solutions of 10 concentrations (0.00003 mM, 0.0001 mM, 0.0003 mM, 0.001 mM, 0.003 mM, 0.01 mM, 0.03 mM, 0.1 mM, 0.3 mM, 1 mM), each of which was further diluted 25 times in the assay buffer to make a drug solution (a solution containing 4% DMSO).

(911) The kinase reaction was performed in wells of a polypropylene 384-well plate in which 5 l of each of the drug solutions or of a solvent (assay buffer containing 4% DMSO), 5 l of the substrate mixture solution, and 10 l of the enzyme solution were mixed. The assay buffer, instead of the enzyme solution, was added to blank wells. After the reaction at room temperature for 5 hours, 60 l of the termination buffer supplied in the kit was added to each well to stop the reaction. The percent inhibition of each reaction was determined using a LabChip EZ Reader II system (manufactured by Caliper Life Sciences), according to the protocol provided with the assay kit. In this case, the peak heights of the separated substrate and the phosphorylated substrate were represented as S and P, respectively, and the percent inhibition (%) by a tested compound was calculated according to the following formula:
Percent inhibition(%)=(1(CA)/(BA))100
wherein A denotes P/(P+S) for a blank well, B denotes P/(P+S) for a solvent well, and C denotes P/(P+S) for a compound-added well.

(912) The IC.sub.50 value of a tested compound was calculated by regression analysis of the percent inhibition values versus the (logarithmic) concentrations of the tested compound.

(913) The IC.sub.50 values of several compounds of the present invention against Cdc7 were all less than 1 M, as shown in Table 4 below.

Test Example 2

(914) [Inhibitory Effect on Phosphorylation Using Cells]

(915) Cultured Cells

(916) COLO205 cells derived from human colon adenocarcinoma (RCB2127, RIKEN BRC) were cultured in 10 cm dishes using RPMI-1640 medium (SIGMA, R8758) supplemented with 10% FCS (Equitech-bio) and 5% penicillin/streptomycin (GIBCO, 15140). After the cells were cultured to a confluence of 70 to 90%, the medium was removed, and the cells were treated with trypsin (2 mL, TrypLE Express, GIBCO, 12604-021) and then harvested using a new medium.

(917) Addition of Drugs to Cultured Cells

(918) COLO205 cells were seeded in 6-well plates (FALCON, 35046) to 2.510.sup.5 cells (1 ml) per well and cultured overnight in a 5% CO.sub.2 incubator. A drug solution, which was prepared by adding 1.5 l of a 0.1-mM stock solution in DMSO of a test compound to 500 l of medium, was added to each well (to a final drug concentration of 0.1 M), and then cultured for another 24 hours.

(919) Determination of Inhibitory Effect on MCM2 Phosphorylation

(920) Cells were cultured for 24 hours in the presence of a test compound, harvested using a similar way as described above, washed with PBS, and then pelletized and stored at 80 C. The frozen cells were thawed, subsequently suspended immediately in 2SDS-PAGE electrophoresis buffer (110.sup.5 cells per 10 l), and heated at 95 C. for 10 minutes, leading to the dissolution and denaturation of the proteins. The resulting sample solutions were subjected to SDS-PAGE using a 5-20% gradient acrylamide gel (e-PAGEL (5-20%), ATTO, E-T520L). After the electrophoresis was completed, the gel was immersed in tris-glycine buffer supplemented with 20% methanol, and the proteins in the gel were transferred onto a PVDF membrane (MILLIPORE, Immobilon-P, IPVH00010) using a semi-dry transfer apparatus (TRNS-BLOT SD SEMI-DRY TRANSFER CELL, BIO RAD).

(921) The transferred PVDF membrane was blocked with 5% skim milk (Difco Skim Milk, BD, 232100), and then subjected to reaction with an anti-MCM2 goat antibody (N-19, Santa Cruz, sc-9839) or anti-phosphorylated MCM2 rabbit antibody (S53) (Bethyl, A300-756A) as a primary antibody and additionally with an anti- tubulin mouse antibody (Clone DM 1A, SIGMA, 9026) as an internal control. Each band was detected by chemiluminescence using an HRP-labeled anti-goat IgG donkey antibody (Santa Cruz, sc2020), anti-rabbit IgG sheep antibody (Roche, 12015218001), or anti-mouse IgG donkey antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 715-035-151) as a secondary antibody. The combinations of and the diluted concentrations of the primary and secondary antibodies were as indicated below.

(922) TABLE-US-00017 TABLE 3 Primary antibody Secondary antibody (diluted concentration) (diluted concentration) 1 Anti-MCM2 goat antibody Anti-goat IgG donkey (1/500) antibody (1/10000) 2 Anti-phosphorylated MCM2 Anti-rabbit IgG sheep rabbit antibody (S53) antibody (1/5000) (1/500) 3 Anti--tubulin mouse Anti-mouse IgG donkey antibody (1/1000) antibody (1/100000)

(923) The bands which were detected were normalized using the amount of endogenous -tubulin as a reference, and the percent phosphorylation of MCM2 was calculated for each of the tested compounds. Their inhibitory effects on MCM2 phosphorylation were indicated by a triple asterisk (***) in the case where the percent phosphorylation of MCM2 was less than 20%, by a dual asterisk (**) in the case where the percent phosphorylation of MCM2 was not less than 20% and less than 50%, and by a single asterisk (*) in the case where the percent phosphorylation of MCM2 was not less than 50% and less than 70%.

(924) It was found from this testing that as shown in Table-4, the tested compounds of the present invention inhibited the phosphorylation of MCM2 at a concentration of 0.1 M.
