- autoimmune disorders are characterized by the production of autoantibodies against self antigens.
- systemic lupus erythematous SLE
- SLE systemic lupus erythematous
- the autoantibodies bind to host cells leading to activation of the immune system and they can form immune complexes that deposit in organs such kidney and vascular tissues.
- Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation in the glands of the body.
- Other autoimmune disorders sharing similar pathology are IgA nephropathy, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ankylosing spondylitis, etc.
- SLE Systemic lupus Erythematosus
- GWAS genome wide association studies
- SLE Diagnosis is problemat ic because the spectrum of disease is broad and ranges from subtle or vague symptoms to life threatening multi-organ failure. There are other diseases with multi-system involvement that can be mistaken for systemic lupus, or vice versa. Several criteria have been dev eloped for the ciassificat ion of SLE. The American
- the classification is further compromised because determining the presence or absence of the criteria often requires subjetive interpretations. Furthermore, the range of clinical manifestation in SLE can vary in the level of activity and severity from, one patient to another. Thus SLE is often misdiagnosed.
- Untreated SLE can be fatal as the disease progress from attacks of skin and joints to internal organs, including lung, heart and kidneys, thus making prognosis particularly crit ical.
- monitoring of the SLE progression is complicated because it mainly appears as a series of flare-ups with intervening periods of litt le no disease manifestation.
- the invention refers to an in vitro method for diagnosing an autoimmune disease or for predicting the effectiveness of a treatment administered in a patient suffering from an autoimmune disease which comprises: (i) activating the B lymphocytes in a sample isolated from said patient containing B lymphocytes,
- a deviation in the value of said at least one kinetic parameter with respect to said reference value is indicative of the presence of the disease or that the treatment is ineffective.
- the invention refers to an in vitro method for monitoring the progression of an autoimmune disease in a patient which comprises:
- a deviation in the value of said at least one kinetic parameter in comparison with the variation of the same parameter at an earlier point of the disease in the patient is indicative that the autoimmune disease shows a bad progression.
- the invention relates to an in vitro method for classifying a patient suffering from an autoimmune disease which comprises:
- the patient is classified in a first group if a deviation in the value of said at least one kinetic parameter with respect to said reference value is detected or classified in a second group if a deviation value of the value of said at least one kinetic parameter with respect to said reference value is not detected.

- the invention relates to an inactive BANKl variant which carries a mutation at position 484 and/or a mutation at position 488 with respect to human BANKl isoform 1.
- the invention relates to compositions a comprising an inactive BLK variant according to the invention or an inactive BANKl variant according to the invention.
- the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an inactive BLK variant according to the invention or an inactive BANKl variant according to the invention and a pharmaceutical acceptable carrier.
- the invention refers to a protein complex comprising BANKl and PLCg2.
- Anti-PLCg2 immunoprecipitates (above) and total cell lysate (below) were analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-BANKl antibody (BANKl -ET-52).
- the position of the BANKl protein is indicated by arrows.
- Figure 2 A) Schematic representation of the constructs used to study the association between BANKl and PLCg2 in transfected HEK293 cells.
- the constructs coding for wild-type forms of BLK, LYN, GFP and PLCg2 or the indicated mutated forms were fused to the epitope V5 at the C-termini.
- BANKl was targeted with the Flag epitope at the N- terminus;
- B) HEK293 cells were transiently co -transfected with plasmids coding for the wild-type form of BLK, its functionally mutated forms (KL and YF), LYN or GFP in addition to plasmids expressing BANKl and PLCg2.
- the lysates were immunoprecipitated using anti-PLCg2 antibody (above) and immunoblotted sequencially with anti-BANKl antibody, anti-V5 to detect PLCg2, Srcs kinases and GFP and anti-phosphotyrosine antibody; C) Mutation of lipidation sites of the kinases influence the formation of the BANKl -PLCg2 complex and the overall tyrosine phosphorylation on PLCg2. The blots were interrogates as in B.

- the authors of the present invention have found, surprisingly, that the B cell scaffold protein with ankyrin repeats (BANK1) interacts physically with Phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLCg2) protein in B lymphocytes upon activation of the B lymphocytes.
- the authors of the present invention have also found, surprisingly, that hyperstimulated B lymphocytes show altered levels of said protein complex and that the formation of said complex is modulated by the kinase activity of the B lymphoid tyrosine kinase (BLK).
- the invention relates to an in vitro method for detecting a protein complex between the B cell scaffold protein with ankyrin repeats (BANKl) and Phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLCg2) in a sample comprising B lymphocytes, wherein said B lymphocytes are activated.
- BANKl ankyrin repeats
- PLCg2 Phospholipase C gamma 2
- B cell scaffold protein with ankyrin repeats includes variants, isoforms and species homologous of human BANKl . It is involved in B-cell receptor induced Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores and promotes Lyn mediated phosphorylation of IP3 receptors 1 and 2.
- the complete cDNA sequence for human BANKl has the Genebank accession number NM 001083907.2 (release of 18 January, 2002).
- PLCg2 Phospholipase C gamma 2
- PLCg2 Phospholipase C gamma 2
- Enzymes of the phospholipase C family catalyze the hydrolysis of phospholipids to yield diacylglycerols and water-soluble phosphorylated derivatives of the lipid head groups. A number of these enzymes have specificity for phosphoinositides.
- C-beta is regulated by heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors, while the closely related C-gamma-1 (PLCG1; MIM 172420) and C-gamma-2 enzymes are controlled by receptor tyrosine kinases.
- the C-gamma-1 and C-gamma-2 enzymes are composed of phospholipase domains that flank regions of homology to noncatalytic domains of the SRC oncogene product, SH2 and SH3.
- the complete cDNA sequence for human PLCg2 has the Genebank accession number NM 002661.3 (November 17, 2012).
- the complete protein sequence for human PLCg2 has the Uniprot accession number PI 6885 (August 1, 1990).
- protein complex or “complex” as used herein, is related to a group of two or more associated polypeptide chains. Preferably, said polypeptides interact with each other at the same time and place. Protein complexes are a form of quaternary- structure. Proteins in protein complexes are linked by non-covalent protein-protein interactions, and different complexes have different degrees of stability over time. Details and further embodiments of the complex are explained below under the heading "Complex of the invention”. The different embodiments mentioned below are equally applicable to the method according to the present invention.
- the detection of protein complex can be carried out by any method known in the art. Said methods are based on the identification of the interacting partners of one target protein. For example, the interacting partners of one protein (i.e. BANK1) can be identified using fusion-based affinity protein purification. Briefly, this technology is based in heterologue expression of the bait protein fused to an appropriate tag. Suitable tags include peptide-based tags. The tag is generally placed at the amino- or the carboxyl-terminus of the bait protein. Various tag polypeptides are well known in the art.
- Bait fusion protein is transfected and appropriate expressed in suitable cells. After an appropriate expression period, cells are lysed and the tagged bait together with bound proteins, is isolated using a specifical chemical or biological ligand linked to a solid support. Eluted proteins can be separated by gel-electrophoresis and specifically bound proteins (i.e. proteins absent from the control are identified by mass spectrometry.
- the complex between BANK1 and PLCg2 is determined by means of in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA), as shown in the examples of the invention.
- PLA in situ proximity ligation assay
- this technology allows the detection and localization of protein targets with single molecule resolution and objectively quantified in unmodified cells and tissues.
- Two primary antibodies raised in different species recognize antigens of interest.
- a typical experimental approach starts by seeding cells (a lymphoblastic cell line could be used in this assay) in suitable slides followed by incubation with rabbit anti-human BANK1 antibody together with mouse anti human PLCg2 antibody.

- the PLA signals are mostly localized close to the nucleus, resulting in a merged image with yellow spots, shown by arrowheads.
- the PLA signals lose their perinuclear location appearing as red spots in the merge image.
- the translocation of the PLA signal was quantified in two independent experiments (Fig. IB).
- the few BANK1-PLCG2 interactions are close to the nuclei, they lose the perinuclear localization at one minute of stimulation and at 20 minutes return to a position close to the nuclei.

- the BANKl -PLCg2 interaction decreased when the constitutive active form of BLK lacked the myristoylation site or when an additional palmitoylation site is added.
- the last mutation mimics the lipidation pattern of Lyn, which suggests that single myristoylation of the kinase favors the BANKl -PLCg2 interaction (compare lanes 2, 3 and 4 of top panel of Fig. 2C). Accordingly with this result, using the Lyn construct harboring the lipidation pattern of BLK renders a large amount of precipitate (lane 5 of top panel of Figure 4C), Thus both the kinase activity of BLK and its proper lipidation contributed to the specificity of BLK in the BANKl-PLCg2 interaction.
- lentiviral particles coding for three BLK-specific siRNAs were used to silence the kinase in the human B-cell line Daudi. A substantial reduction of protein and mRNA expression in the silenced cell lines was obtained (Fig. 3A and B).
- EXAMPLE 5 The BANKl-PLCg2 interaction is dependent on the proline rich motif and the phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues on BANK1
- BANKl tyrosine phosphorylation was estimated with the anti-pan-tyrosine antibody (Fig. 4D). Substitution of Y484 and Y488 to F lead to an overall decrease of tyrosine phosphorylation of BANKl (Fig.
- BANKl has two defined domains, one containing exon 2 that binds to type 2 IP3R and a PLCg2 binding domain composed of a phosphotyrosine motif (Y484-488) that probably binds to the SH2 domains of PLCg2 and a proline rich motif (PP513-514) that probably binds to the SH3 domain of PLCg2.
- the two domains connect the enzyme responsible of the generation of IP3 (PLCg2) and the receptor of this second messenger (IP3R).
- the signaling cascade is initiated by BCR mediated phosphorylation of BANKl .
- the screen with the full-length form of BANKl identified 9 clones with good or moderate confidence in the interaction.
- the interaction found with the Src kinase FYN rendered the results of the screen reliable.
- the hypothesis preceding the screen was to recover prey clones coding for conserved Src family of kinases because it has been previously shown that BANKl interacts physically in vivo with two related Src kinases, namely LYN and BLK
- the higher confidence for interaction was however obtained with the phospholipase C-gamma 2 (PLCg2).
- PLCg2 phospholipase C-gamma 2
- Two independent clones coding for the regulatory region specific for the PLCg family were recovered. Both clones code for the carboxy terminal SH2 domain (cSH2), the complete SH3 domain and one of clones included the carboxy terminal catalytic Y-core.
- the second screen with the truncated form of BANKl (aa 331-785) produced high confidence interactions, which suggests that this fragment of BANKl is, at least partially well folded.
- the higher scores in this screen were given to the genes G22P1 coding for the Ku70 protein, required for V(D)J recombination, protection of telomeres and originally identified as an autoantigen recognized by the sera of patients with autoimmune diseases and the genes PSAP and Saposin C coding for the saposin precursor and the mature Saposin C form, respectively.
- this screen we identified once again fragments as prey clones coding for the SH2 and SH3 domains of the related Src kinases LYN, FYN and HCK .
