  1. Interpretation of Raw Data:NA Activity and IC50 Assays Angie Lackenby

  2. Topics to Address • Determination of standard virus dose • Validation of NA activity and IC50 assays • Interpretation of NA activity assays • Interpretation of IC50 assays

  3. Determination of Standard Virus Dose (1) • Fluorescence unit are RELATIVE • Raw values are not applicable directly to other instruments • Standard dose should be within linear enzyme activity • Dilute 4-MU (SS) in water to 100mM • Titrate 4-MU (SS) solution in high pH stop solution from 100uM to 0.1uM • Read the fluorescence levels of the titration • Plot RFU against 4-MU (SS) concentration • Read off the RFU value given by 10uM 4-MU (SS) • In all virus titrations, the virus dilution giving this RFU value can be used as the standard dose 36700 RFU 10uM 4-MU (SS)

  4. Determination of Standard Virus Dose (2) 10nm 4-MU Dilute 1/6

  5. Validation of NA activity and IC50 assays • Level of fluorescence of the virus control (no drug) in IC50 assay should match standard dose (e.g.36000 RFU) • Shape of curve/curve fit • Replicate correlation – set limiting criteria e.g. >30% difference in IC50? • Reference strain performance C A B IC50: 1.7 vs 3.9 IC50: 1.2 vs 5.5

  6. Validation: Reference Performance

  7. Interpretation of NA Activity • HA titre should generally correlate with NA activity • Can indicate resistance even if IC50 is normal • Recognised subtype specific differences • In general H1N1< H3N2< Flu B Both Isolates HA640 and IC50 in normal range All 3 isolates HA320 A B

  8. Interpretation of IC50 Results • Recognised subtype specific differences • Correct sub-tying? • Recognised drug specific differences • H3N2 greater sensitivity to oseltamivir than zanamivir • Flu B greater sensitivity to zanamivir than oseltamivir • H1N1 similar sensitivity to both drugs • Aside from IC50 value, consider: • Curve shape (flattened/ non sigmoidal) • Curve position (shifts to left or right) • Link HA titre with NA activity and IC50 value

  9. IC50 Interpretation: Subtype specific differences

  10. IC50 Interpretation: Resistant versus incorrect subtype A B 32nM 0.7nM 25nM 1.9nM 2.1nM 0.4nM

  11. Interpretation of IC50 data: True Outliers
