Abstract: The invention provides methods relating to a screening assay format that can be applied to broad members of the protein kinase gene family. The assay uses a series of labeled, active site probes described herein that can be displaced by an inhibitor agent. The Kd for the inhibitor compound is derived based on the Kd of the probe for the kinase and the dose response of the inhibitor agent. The invention also provides active site probes suitable for use with the screening method.

Abstract: Disclosed are novel compounds of formula (I): wherein R1, R2 and R3 are as defined herein, which are useful as inhibitors of PKC-theta and are thus useful for treating a variety of diseases and disorders that are mediated or sustained through the activity of PKC-theta, including immunological disorders and type II diabetes. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, methods of using these compounds in the treatment of various diseases and disorders, processes for preparing these compounds and intermediates useful in these processes.
