Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, the above method requires the chemical synthesis of the labeled sugar donor, the determination requires special equipment (liquid scintillator, LC-MS), and it is difficult to perform simple analysis, especially difficult to use microplates for a large number of quantitative analysis (Qualcomm volume screening)
[0009] In addition, it is a cost-intensive method in terms of fees
[0010] On the other hand, it is known to use a commercially available analysis kit (Transcreener (registered trademark) GDPAssay, UDP2Assay, AMP2 / GMP2Assay manufactured by Bellbrook Labs, Inc.) to detect the protein produced by the glycosyltransferase reaction by the fluorescence polarization method. The method of quantifying nucleotides, the method of measuring the absorbance of NADH by enzymatic coupling reaction (non-patent literature 5, 6), or the method of quantifying by the color development of malachite green by freeing phosphate (non-patent literature 7), but the detection sensitivity is low
[0011] In addition, there is also known a method of measuring by enzyme coupling to induce chemiluminescence of luciferase (Patent Document 1), but the operation is complicated and the sensitivity is not clear
[0012] In addition, recently, a high-speed analysis method for the transfer of fluorescently labeled sugars using the fluorescence polarization method has been reported (Non-Patent Document 8), but it can only be used for high-molecular substrates and cannot be applied to all sugars. base transferase
[0013] As such, it is difficult for existing methods to analyze all glycosyltransferases easily and with high sensitivity using microplates, and it is difficult to perform high-throughput screening of glycosyltransferase activity modulators

[0296] Use the calibration curve of the GDP of the method of the present invention, UDP

[0297] Calibration curves of GDP and UDP were created using the reactions of the first step and the second step of the present invention.

[0298] As materials, GDP (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. catalog number 078-04741), UDP (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. catalog number 212-00861), ATP (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. catalog number 18-16911), NDP kinase from baker's yeast (Sigma-Aldrich (Sigma-Aldrich) catalog number N0379), glucose (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. catalog number 045-31162), ADP-dependent hexokinase (Asahi Kasei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

[0309] Calibration curve for CMP using the method of the invention

[0310] A calibration curve of CMP was created using the reactions of the first step and the second step of the present invention.

[0311] As materials, CMP (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. catalog number 034-05361), CMP kinase (human CMPK1, Prospec catalog number PKA-002), DTT (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. No. 040-29223), N-ethylmaleimide (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. Catalog No. 054-02061). Dissolve CMP in buffer F (100 mM Tris-HCl (pH9), 13.5 mM MgCl 2 , 150 mM KCl, 0.1% Triton X-100 (TritonX-100)) to prepare a 0-40 μM solution. Prepare the mixed solution for enzyme coupling according to the following composition.

[0312] Since CMP kinase requires a reducing agent, DTT was used as a reducing agent in the first step, and N-ethylmaleimide was used as an SH reagent for inactivation in the second step.

[0319] Time-dependent changes in fluorochrome

[0320] After performing the reaction in the same manner as in Example 1 using 40 μM of GDP or UDP, the plate was taken out at intervals only during the reaction in the second step for fluorescence measurement. In addition, using 40 μM CMP, the reaction was carried out in the same manner as in Example 2, and only in the reaction in the second step, the plate was taken out at intervals for fluorescence measurement. The results are expressed in Figure 4 . It can be seen from this that, in the case of quantitative GDP or UDP, the reaction of the second step is completed within 25 minutes, and the fluorescence value is kept stably for at least 120 minutes afterwards; in the case of quantitative CDP, the reaction of the second step is completed within 25 minutes. At the end of the minute, there was little change in the fluorescence value until at least 120 minutes after 60 minutes.

[0321] Therefore, in the case of quantitative GD...
