Sphingosine kinases catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to sphingosine to generate sphingosine 1-phosphate, an important bioactive lipid molecule that mediates a diverse range of cell signaling processes. The conventional assay of sphingosine kinase enzymatic activity uses [γ-32P]ATP and sphingosine as substrates with the radiolabeled S1P product recovered by organic extraction, displayed by thin-layer chromatography and quantified by liquid scintillation counting. While this assay is sensitive and accurate, it is slow and labor intensive and thus precludes the simultaneous screening of more than a few inhibitor compounds. Herein we describe a 96 well assay for sphingosine kinases that is rapid and reproducible. Our method, which takes advantage of the limited solubility of S1P, detects radioactive S1P adhering to the plate by scintillation proximity counting. Our procedure obviates extraction into organic solvents, post-reaction transfers and chromatography. Further, our assay enables assessment of both inhibitors and substrates, and can detect endogenous sphingosine kinase activity in cell and tissue extracts. The sphingosine kinase kinetic parameter, Km, and the Ki values of inhibitors determined with our assay and the conventional assay were indistinguishable. These results document that our assay is well suited for the screening of chemical libraries of sphingosine kinase inhibitors.
