Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of protein conformational diseases. More specifically, the present invention provides compositions and methods for treating protein conformational diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
- ALS amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
- ALS amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
- the cell coordinates several major quality control systems to guard against proteotoxicity including molecular chaperones, ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy (Bukau and Horwich, 1998; Ciechanover and Brundin, 2003; Hartl et al, 2011; Mizushima et al, 2008).
- the regulation of protein quality control occurs at different scales from individual proteins to whole organisms (Wolff et al, 2014).
- the protein quality control systems might be harnessed to defend against proteotoxicity associated with neurodegenerative diseases. However, how the cell might reprogram its protein quality control systems is not fully understood.
- Mutant Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1), linked to -20% of familial ALS, represents a simple molecular model for protein misfolding and aggregation.
- the wild-type (WT) SOD1 protein has a stable ⁇ -barrel structure with a two-state folding process (Parge et al., 1992), whereas mutant SOD1 proteins gain heightened propensity to aggregate in vitro and in vivo (Bruijn et al, 1997; Lindberg et al, 2005; Wang et al, 2003a).
- neurodegeneration-associated proteins including ALS-linked TDP-43 and FUS (Kwiatkowski et al, 2009; Vance et al., 2009). Identifying mechanisms that suppress the toxicity of protein misfolding and aggregation may help understand the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and also provide potential targets for corrections.
- the present invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that Lysine-Specific Demethylase 1 (LSD1) and Ubiquitination Factor E4B (Ube4B), can be targeted to suppress proteotoxicity and treat protein conformational diseases.
- LSD1 Lysine-Specific Demethylase 1
- Ube4B Ubiquitination Factor E4B
- Protein conformational diseases refer to all the pathological conditions that are associated with protein misfolding, including major forms of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Neurodegenerative diseases in humans present daunting medical and economic challenge. With a doubling of the average human lifespan over the last century, neurodegenerative diseases have become a major aging-related public health challenge in the US and many other countries. Unfortunately, no curative treatments exist for these debilitating conditions.
- the present inventors identified novel molecular targets of neurodegeneration, the Lysine- Specific Demethylase 1 (LSD1) and Ubiquitination Factor E4B (Ube4B). As described herein, the present inventors showed in a mammalian cell-culture model system that reduction of levels of these molecular targets lead to reduction in protein aggregation, improved proteasome function and activation of pathways beneficial to cells under stress.
- Mouse models of neurodegeneration are being used to test the efficacy of RNAi and drug inhibitors in reducing Ube4b/LSD1 function and reducing neurotoxic burden of aggregated proteins. The outcome of such efficacy studies in is instructive towards collaborative human clinical studies.

Further analysis showed that this pathway acts through transcription factors such as p53 that mediate cellular stress responses. Together these results describe a new mechanism involving previously unrecognized players for the cell to reprogram cellular stress responses towards protein quality control.

In addition, modifications can be introduced in the bases to protect siRNAs from the action of one or more endogenous enzymes.
- the siRNA molecule may contain at least one modified nucleotide analogue.
- the nucleotide analogues may be located at positions where the target-specific activity, e.g., the RNAi mediating activity is not substantially effected, e.g., in a region at the 5 '-end and/or the 3 '-end of the RNA molecule.

- siRNAs of the present invention can be enzymatically produced or totally or partially synthesized. Moreover, the siRNAs can be synthesized in vivo or in vitro. For siRNAs that are biologically synthesized, an endogenous or a cloned exogenous RNA polymerase may be used for transcription in vivo, and a cloned RNA polymerase can be used in vitro. siRNAs that are chemically or enzymatically synthesized are preferably purified prior to the introduction into the cell.

- Sequence identity may be determined by sequence comparison and alignment algorithms known to those of ordinary skill in the art. To determine the percent identity of two nucleic acid sequences (or of two amino acid sequences), the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (e.g., gaps can be introduced in the first sequence or second sequence for optimal alignment). The nucleotides (or amino acid residues) at corresponding nucleotide (or amino acid) positions are then compared. When a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same residue as the corresponding position in the second sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position.
- the comparison of sequences and determination of percent identity between two sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm.

- Antisense molecules can act in various stages of transcription, splicing and translation to block the expression of a target gene. Without being limited by theory, antisense molecules can inhibit the expression of a target gene by inhibiting transcription initiation by forming a triple strand, inhibiting transcription initiation by forming a hybrid at an RNA polymerase binding site, impeding transcription by hybridizing with an RNA molecule being synthesized, repressing splicing by hybridizing at the junction of an exon and an intron or at the spliceosome formation site, blocking the translocation of an mRNA from nucleus to cytoplasm by hybridization, repressing translation by hybridizing at the translation initiation factor binding site or ribosome biding site, inhibiting peptide chain elongation by hybridizing with the coding region or polysome binding site of an mRNA, or repressing gene expression by hybridizing at the sites of interaction between nucleic acids and

- the ribozyme molecules include one or more sequences
- the expression of the Ube4B and/or LSD1 genes can also be inhibited by using triple helix formation.
- Nucleic acid molecules to be used in triple helix formation for the inhibition of transcription can be single stranded and composed of deoxynucleotides.
- the base composition of these oligonucleotides must be designed to promote triple helix formation via Hoogsteen base paring rules, which generally require sizeable stretches of either purines or pyrimidines to be present on one strand of a duplex.
- Nucleotide sequences may be pyrimidine-based, which will result in TAT and CGC + triplets across the three associated strands of the resulting triple helix.
- the pyrimidine-rich molecules provide base
- nucleic acid molecules that are purine-rich e.g., containing a stretch of G residues, may be chosen. These molecules will form a triple helix with a DNA duplex that is rich in GC pairs, in which the majority of the purine residues are located on a single strand of the targeted duplex, resulting in GGC triplets across the three strands in the triplex.
- the potential sequences that can be targeted for triple helix formation may be increased by creating a so-called "switchback" nucleic acid molecule.
- Switchback molecules are synthesized in an alternating 5 '-3 ',3 '-5' manner, such that they base pair first with one strand of a duplex and then the other, eliminating the necessity for a sizeable stretch of either purines or pyrimidines to be present on one strand of a duplex.
- Co-repression refers to the phenomenon in which, when a gene having an identical or similar to the target sequence is introduced to a cell, expression of both introduced and endogenous genes becomes repressed. This phenomenon, although first observed in plant system, has been observed in certain animal systems as well.
- the sequence of the gene to be introduced does not have to be identical to the target sequence, but sufficient homology allows the co-repression to occur. The determination of the extent of homology depends on individual cases, and is within the ordinary skill in the art.

- the overhanging nucleotides may be either RNA or DNA.
- BLAST National Center for Biotechnology Information website
- the GC content of the selected sequence should be from about 30% to about 70%, preferably about 50%.
- sequences absent from other genes are preferred.
- the secondary structure of the target mRNA may be determined or predicted, and it may be preferable to select a region of the mRNA that has little or no secondary structure, but it should be noted that secondary structure seems to have little impact on RNAi.
- siRNA sbRNA or stRNA (as well as other antisense oligonucleotides)
- sequences that bind transcription and/or translation factors should be avoided, as they might competitively inhibit the binding of a siRNA, sbRNA or stRNA (as well as other antisense oligonucleotides) to the mRNA.

- a peptide mimetic is expected to permit molecular interactions similar to the natural molecule.
- peptide mapping may be used to determine "active" antigen recognition residues, and along with molecular modeling and molecular dynamics trajectory analysis, peptide mimic of the antibodies containing antigen contact residues from multiple CDRs may be prepared.
- an antibody specifically binds an epitope of the Ube4B or LSD1 protein.
- the peptide regions may not necessarily precisely map one epitope, but may also contain a Ube4B or LSD1 sequence that is not immunogenic.
- Methods of predicting other potential epitopes to which an immunoglobulin of the invention can bind are well-known to those of skill in the art and include, without limitation, Kyte- Doolittle Analysis (Kyte, J. and Dolittle, R. F., 157 J. MOL. BlOL. 105-32 (1982)); Hopp and Woods Analysis (Hopp, T. P. and Woods, K. R, 78 PROC. NATL. ACAD. SCI.
- Amino acid sequence variants of the Ube4B and LSD1 antibodies of the present invention may be prepared by introducing appropriate nucleotide changes into the polynucleotide that encodes the antibody or by peptide synthesis. Such modifications include, for example, deletions from, and/or insertions into and/or substitutions of, residues within the amino acid sequences of the antibody. Any combination of deletions, insertions, and substitutions may be made to arrive at the final construct.
- Amino acid sequence insertions include amino-terminal and/or carboxyl-terminal fusions ranging in length from one residue to polypeptides containing a hundred or more residues, as well as intrasequence insertions of single or multiple amino acid residues.
- terminal insertions include an antibody with an N-terminal methionyl residue or the antibody fused to a cytotoxic polypeptide.
- Other insertional variants of the antibody molecule include the fusion to the N- or C-terminus of the antibody of a polypeptide that increases the serum half-life of the antibody.
- antibody variants are an amino acid substitution variant. These variants have at least one amino acid residue in the antibody molecule replaced by a different residue.
- sites of greatest interest for substitutional mutagenesis of antibodies include the hypervariable regions, but framework region (FR) alterations are also contemplated.
- a useful method for the identification of certain residues or regions of the Ube4B and LSD 1 antibodies that are preferred locations for substitution, i.e., mutagenesis is alanine scanning mutagenesis. See Cunningham & Wells, 244 SCIENCE 1081-85 (1989). Briefly, a residue or group of target residues are identified (e.g., charged residues such as arg, asp, his, lys, and glu) and replaced by a neutral or negatively charged amino acid (most preferably alanine or polyalanine) to affect the interaction of the amino acids with antigen.
- the amino acid locations demonstrating functional sensitivity to the substitutions are refined by introducing further or other variants at, or for, the sites of substitution.
- the site for introducing an amino acid sequence variation is predetermined, the nature of the mutation per se need not be predetermined.
- alanine scanning or random mutagenesis may be conducted at the target codon or region and the expressed antibody variants screened for the desired activity.
- Substantial modifications in the biological properties of the antibody can be accomplished by selecting substitutions that differ significantly in their effect on, maintaining (i) the structure of the polypeptide backbone in the area of the substitution, for example, as a sheet or helical conformation, (ii) the charge or hydrophobicity of the molecule at the target site, or (iii) the bulk of the side chain.
- Naturally occurring residues are divided into groups based on common side-chain properties:
- hydrophobic norleucine, met, ala, val, leu, ile
- Non-conservative substitutions will entail exchanging a member of one of these classes for another class.
- Conservative substitutions involve exchanging of amino acids within the same class.
- cysteine residues not involved in maintaining the proper conformation of the antibody also may be substituted, generally with serine, to improve the oxidative stability of the molecule and prevent aberrant crosslinking.
- cysteine bond(s) may be added to the antibody to improve its stability, particularly where the antibody is an immunoglobulin fragment such as an Fv fragment.
- substitutional variant involves substituting one or more hypervariable region residues of a parent antibody.
- the resulting variant(s), i.e., functional equivalents as defined above, selected for further development will have improved biological properties relative to the parent antibody from which they are generated.
- a convenient way for generating such substitutional variants is by affinity maturation using phage display. Briefly, several hypervariable region sites (e.g., 6-7 sites) are mutated to generate all possible amino substitutions at each site.
- the antibody variants thus generated are displayed in a monovalent fashion from filamentous phage particles as fusions to the gene III product of Ml 3 packaged within each particle. The phage-displayed variants are then screened for their biological activity (e.g., binding affinity) as herein disclosed.
- alanine- scanning mutagenesis may be performed to identify hypervariable region residues contributing significantly to antigen binding.
- ADCC antigen- dependent cell-mediated cyotoxicity
- CDC complement dependent cytotoxicity
- This may be achieved by introducing one or more amino acid substitutions in an Fc region of an antibody.
- cysteine residue(s) may be introduced in the Fc region, thereby allowing interchain disulfide bond formation in this region.
- the homodimeric antibody thus generated may have improved internalization capability and/or increased complement-mediated cell killing and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).
- ADCC complement-mediated cell killing and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity
- an antibody can be engineered which has dual Fc regions and may thereby have enhanced complement lysis and ADCC capabilities. Stevenson et al, 3 ANTI-CANCER DRUG DESIGN 219-30 (1989).

- Polynucleotide molecules encoding amino acid sequence variants of the antibody are prepared by a variety of methods known in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, isolation from a natural source (in the case of naturally occurring amino acid sequence variants) or preparation by oligonucleotide-mediated (or site directed) mutagenesis, PCR mutagenesis, and cassette mutagenesis of an earlier prepared variant or a non-variant version of the anti-Ube4B and LSD1 antibodies of the present invention.

- the decrease in aggregation was not specific to S0D1 G85R but also occurred with other aggregation-prone proteins, including TDP-43 (FIGS. 8B and 8C), indicative of a general effect on misfolded proteins.
- MDM2 a negative regulator of p53, or ⁇ - galactosidase as a control, together with the p53 activity reporter.
- the introduction of MDM2 significantly reduced p53-dependent transcriptional activation of the luciferase reporter under the UBE4B and LSDl double-knockdown condition (FIG. 10), confirming the specificity of the up-regulation of p53 by UBE4B and LSDl .
- FOXOs are a family of transcription factors invoked in protein quality control (Zhang et al, 2011 ; Zhao et al, 2007), and PSMDl 1 is a critical regulator of proteasome activity (Vilchez et al, 2012a; 2012b).
- FOX03a is transcriptionally up-regulated by p53 (Renault et al, 2011), and PSMDl 1 is transcriptionally induced by FOXOs (Vilchez et al, 2012a; 2012b).
- FOXOs Vanchez et al, 2012a; 2012b.
- FOX03a, FOX04, and PSMDl 1 were all transcriptionally up-regulated when UBE4B and LSDl are knocked down (FIG. 9D), linking these positive regulators of protein quality control downstream of p53 to the UBE4B- and LSDl -dependent anti-proteotoxicity activity.
- FOX03a-TM constitutively active form
- FOX03a-TM FHRE-lucif erase reporter
- HCT116 cells which are amenable to this assay, were transfected with shRNA constructs to knock down UBE4B and LSDl, with the LC3-GLuc plasmid used to measure the cleavage of LC3 and constitutively secreted control (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase [CMV-SEAP]) for transfecti on/secretion normalization (FIGS. 11B and 11C).
- the LC3-dependent GLuc activity measured over a period of 72 h, showed a 2- to 3-fold increase in ATG4B proteolytic activity at the end of the time course, demonstrating the activation of autophagy by UBE4B and the double-knockdown (FIG. 5B).
- the cells transfected with the non-cleavable, LC3-less fusion, the Act-GLuc construct showed only background levels of Glue activity, similar to the levels observed in non-transfected cells.
- p53 Regulates Protein Quality Control. Until now, p53 has not been associated with anti-proteotoxicity activity. p53 has been shown to regulate autophagy, but in conflicting directions (Balch et al., 2008; Levine and Abrams, 2008; Prusiner, 2012). Our microarray analysis and subsequent studies establish a correlation between the activation of p53- mediated transcription and enhanced protein quality control conferred by the knockdown of UBE4B and LSD1 (FIG. 5). It has been demonstrated that p53 is a target of
- Tenovin-1 is a SIRTl/2 deacetylase inhibitor that promotes p53 K382 acetylation, increasing its stability and activity (Lain et al, 2008; Wolff et al, 2014).
- CP-31398 is another drug that activates p53 by stabilizing the p53 DNA-binding domain in an active conformation and inhibiting its ubiquitination (Foster, 1999; Parge et al, 1992; Wang et al., 2003b).
- the S0D1 G85R reporter did not produce an appreciable pellet fraction, so we focused on analyzing the supernatant fraction.
- the S0D1 G85R mutant protein was significantly increased in the p53 knockout cells when compared to the controls, indicating that the endogenous p53 promotes the clearance of misfolded proteins (FIG. 6C).
- UBE4B forms a complex with an AAA-ATPase p97/VCP to ubiquitinate and degrade specific client proteins (Eimer et al, 2002; Kaneko et al, 2003; Morreale et al, 2009).
- p97/V CP plays an essential role in handling unfolded proteins such as at endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation (Ye et al, 2001; Zetterstrom et al, 2007), and it was recently linked to familial ALS (Johnson et al, 2010; Wang et al., 2009a).
- Our findings thus provide a new link between p97/V CP and protein quality control, which is regulated by UBE4B.
- p53 as a Key Switch in Protein Quality Control. Unbiased transcriptome analysis points to p53 as a central regulator of the transcriptional reprograming that mediates the effects of UBE4B and LSDl on protein quality control. Consistent with this observation, p53 has been found to have a number of direct transcriptional targets functioning in protein quality control and neuroprotection, and it also activates additional stress-response transcription factors such as FOXOs (Brignull et al, 2006; Morley et al, 2002; Renault et al, 2011).
- p53 is elevated in the central nervous system of patients with neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and ALS (Kitamura et al, 1997; Martin, 2000; Wang et al, 2009a; 2009b).
- the transcription factors mediate the effects of this strong suppressor is reminiscent of other signaling pathways governing protein homeostasis.
- the heat shock response activates the expression of molecular chaperones and other protein quality control machinery via the master transcription factors the heat shock factors (Morimoto, 1998; Wang et al, 2009a; 2009b).
- the unfolded protein response promotes the endoplasmic reticulum quality control programs through the activation of a set of the transcription factors, including XBP1, ATF4, and ATF6 (Brignull et al, 2006; Morley et al, 2002; Walter and Ron, 2011).
- the post-translational regulation by UBE4B and LSDl activates the p53 transcription factor, which is then capable of eliciting a systematic protective program against proteotoxic stress.
- p53 has a well-established role in regulating responses to DNA damage (Lanson et al., 2011; Liu, 2001; Ritson et al., 2010; Smith et al, 1994), and recently, a neuroprotective role of activated DNA damage checkpoint has been demonstrated in a tau-dependent neurodegeneration model (Khurana et al, 2012; Wang et al, 2003a; 2006).
- p53 is a versatile transcriptional switch that guards against both genotoxicity and proteotoxicity.
- the specific activity of p53 may be fine-tuned at the post-translational level by upstream regulators such as UBE4B and LSDl .
- p53 promotes apoptosis in cells with irreversible genotoxic damage (Vousden and Prives, 2009; Wu et al, 2011). p53 may also function as a dual regulator in proteotoxicity: It promotes the repair and survival of moderately damaged cells, but turns on cell death pathways in cells whose damage is irreparable. Such duality has been observed for other protein quality control systems, such as the ER stress responses (Huang et al, 2007; Walter and Ron, 2011). Thus p53 could serve as a critical regulator of cellular responses to proteotoxicity by repairing or removing damaged cells.

- shRNAs transfections of HEK293T cells were performed by plating 3.2xl 0 5 cells in 60 mm poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI, 10 ⁇ g/ml in PBS, Sigma)-pretreated dishes one day before the transfection. 4 ⁇ g of shRNA-encoding plasmids, 350 ng of SOD1 reporter (BOS-SOD1 -G85R), and 10 ⁇ Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) were mixed in 500 ⁇ Opti-MEM I (Invitrogen), and applied to cells in 2.5 ml Opti-MEM I. One day post transfection, medium was replaced with DMEM/10. Cells were lysed 72-96 h after the start of transfections for analysis, or transfected with additional reporter plasmids for transcriptional, proteasomal, and autophagic activity assays.
- 3-Methyladenine (Sigma) was resuspended at (10 ⁇ ) in complete DMEM, by heating to 37 ° C and vigorous vortexing. All drugs were diluted in DMEM/10 prior to cell treatments.
- IgGs normal rabbit IgG (NeoMarkers, NC-100P). IgGs were captured using magnetic A/G beads (Pierce, #88803), washed 4x10 min with IP buffer, and eluted with boiling in 2x SDS loading buffer. Equal amount were loaded on 4-20% Tris- Glycine gel, transferred and visualized with Li-Cor's 680RD Detection Reagent.
- C. elegans strains were collected from NGM feeding plates into M9 buffer and washed five times. Mammalian culture cells grown on 60mm plate were washed two times with cold PBS. C. elegans and mammalian cells were lysed in 200- 300 ⁇ of lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA),100 mM NaCl and 0.5% NP-40, 1/lOOth protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma, P8340) and 25 mM iodoacetamide (Sigma, 16125), sonicated on ice in Diagenode Bioruptor (High, 30 sec pulse, 30 sec pause, 5 min total).
- lysis buffer 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA),100 mM NaCl and 0.5% NP-40, 1/lOOth protease inhibitor
- Lysates were centrifuged 5-10 min at ⁇ 130,000g (25 psi) in Airfuge (Coulter-Beckman), to separate larger pelleted aggregates (PI), from soluble proteins and smaller aggregates (SI).
- PI pellet was resuspended in lysis buffer and sonicated as described above, except 10 min. After centrifugation (Airfuge, -130,000 g, 5-10 min), pellet (P2) was resuspended in 100 ⁇ Urea/SDS buffer (8 M Urea, 5% SDS, 40 mM Tris-Cl pH 6.8, 0.1 mM EDTA), followed by 5 min sonication.
- Fluorescent signals from the hybridized probes were detected using the Affymetrix G3000 GeneArray Scanner, and analysis was performed through the Affymetrix GeneChip Command Console version 3.4 software.
- the microarray data were managed and analyzed using Partek Genomic Suite (Partek) and Spotfire DecisionSite software (TIBCO Software).

- the microarray data set containing gene identifiers and expression values was uploaded into the application. Each identifier was then mapped to its corresponding gene product in the Ingenuity Knowledge Base.
- the molecules with expression fold changes above the threshold ( ⁇ 1.2), and the p-values ⁇ 0.05, were overlaid onto a global molecular network developed from information contained in the Ingenuity Knowledge Base. The relevant networks of selected molecules were then algorithmically generated based on their connectivity.
- experimental, microarray - derived expression patterns were analyzed and compared to the literature-derived expression patterns resulting from activation/inhibition of known, upstream regulatory molecules, such as, transcriptional factors, signal transducers, receptors, or chemical effectors.
- the probability of significant overlap between microarray-derived and literature-derived sets was set to ⁇ 0.05.
- the raw data of the present microarray analysis is deposited at the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository (accession # GSE58026).
