PRIORITY CLAFM

The present application claims priority to United States Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62/274,871, filed January 5, 2016 and titled "AN INHIBITOR OF DNA BINDING-2 (ID-2) PROTEIN-DEPENDENT MECHANISM FOR VHL INACTIVATION IN CANCER," the entirety of which in incorporated by reference herein.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for regulating the activity of the Inhibitor of DNA Binding-2 (ID2) protein and for treating an ID protein- related disease, such as a tumor or cancer.

BACKGROUND

Inhibitor of DNA Binding (ID) proteins are transcriptional regulators that control the timing of cell fate determination and differentiation in stem and progenitor cells during normal development and adult life. ID proteins have the ability to control specific genes which regulate cell proliferation and cell-cycle progression in a variety of mature and embryonic cell types, including vascular smooth muscle cell and endothelial cells. ID genes are frequently dysregulated in many types of human neoplasms, and they endow cancer cells with biological features hijacked from normal stem cells that often prove very detrimental to the cancer patient. ID proteins frequently coordinate of multiple cancer hallmarks, such that they are even recognized as important biomarkers in some types of tumors, including human tumors.

Although the pro-tumorigenic role of ID proteins has been linked to the accumulation of mRNAs and proteins, it remains unclear whether other mechanisms exist that dysregulate ID activity in cancer cells. Among ID proteins, ID2 is essential for tumor angiogenesis and glioma sternness and it is a component of the biomarker signature that predicts poor outcome in patients with high-grade glioma.

The Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-a (HIFa) transcription factors are the key mediators of the hypoxia response, but HIFa protein dysregulation in cancer can be triggered by mutation of the von-Hippel Lindau (VHL) gene. Mutation of the VHL gene hinders the negative control of HIFa protein stability through the ubiquitin ligase activity of VHL. This idea has been validated for HIF2a, the HIF isoform preferentially upregulated in VHL-mutant tumors and has recently been implicated as a driver of cancer stem cells. However, signaling events that link the stem cell-intrinsic transcriptional machinery to pivotal mechanisms of HIF2a regulation in cancer are presently unknown.

Dual-Specificity Tyrosine-Phosphorylation-Regulated Protein Kinase 1A and IB (collectively referred to herein as DYRK1), are two forms or a protein associated with Down Syndrome. The gene coding for DYRK1 A is gained in Down syndrome, a disease characterized by impaired neural proliferation during development, reduced self-renewal and premature withdrawal from the cell cycle. However, DYRK1 has not previously been linked to ID2 or HIFa activity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for regulating activity of the ID2 protein and for treating an ID protein-related disease, such as a tumor or cancer. The compositions and methods generally operate by regulating the activity of a DYRKl . In particular, the compositions and methods can regulate the phosphorylation of Thr 27 of ID2 by DYRK 1.

Although the present disclosure is not limited to the models of FIG. 1A and

FIG. IB, these figures illustrate potential pathways for the interactions of ID2 and DYRKl and their effects on HIFa stability. It will be understood by one of skill in the art that complete activation and complete inactivation of all proteins of a given type in a cell is uncommon, such that both pathways can be taking place in a given cell at any time. Compositions and methods disclosed herein can simply increase the prevalence of one pathway or a similar pathway over another.

As illustrated in FIG. 1 A, HIFa degradation can occur when prolyl hydroxylases (PHD1) are active causing DYRKl to be phosphorylated (pY) and active. Active DYRKl phosphorylates ID2 (pT) on Thr 27 of ID2, which has an inhibitory effect. When ID2 is inhibited, the VHL-elongin B (ElgB)-elongin C (ElgC) (VCB) - cullin 2 (Cul2) complex effectively ubiquitinates HIFa, leading to its degradation as a ubiquitinated protein. This pathway can occur in the presence of normal oxygen levels (p0 ₂ ) and can also be triggered by activating DYRKl or increasing its expression or by deactivating, downregulating, or decreasing expression of ID2.

As illustrated in FIG. IB, HIFa stabilization can occur when PHD1 is not active, such that DYRKl is not phosphorylated and is inactive. Inactive DYRKl does not phosphorylate ID2 on Thr 27. As a result, ID2 is able to bind directly to VHL and Elg- C, displacing Cul2. A VCB-Cul2 complex is no longer present and HIFa is no longer ubiquitinated. As a result, HIFa is not degraded and is able to accumulate and increase transcription of HIFa target genes. One such target gene is the ID2 gene, setting up a feed-forward ID2-HIFa loop. This pathway can occur in the presence of reduced p0 ₂ and can also be triggered by DYRKl downregulation or deactivation, ID2 overexpression or activation, and an ID2 mutation that prevents its inhibition by DYRKl, such as mutation at Thr 27, particularly a Thr27Ala mutation.

Compositions for Regulating ID2 Activity

The present disclosure provides various compositions that regulate the activity of

ID-2 such that HIFa, particularly HIF2a degradation is accelerated in a cell, such as a cancer or tumor cell, or HIFa, particularly HIF2a half-life in a cell, such as a cancer or tumor cell, is decreased as compared to in the absence of such a composition. The compositions function by ultimately increasing the phosphorylation of ID2 on Thr 27.

Increasing the amount or activity of DYRK1 in a cell accelerates the degradation of HIFa and decreases its half-life in the cell. Accordingly, some compositions of the present disclosure include DYRK1, such as biologies containing DYRK1. DYRK1 contained in such compositions can be produced by any suitable method of protein production, such as via culture of a DYRK1 -producing cell, including a recombinant cell containing exogenous nucleic acids encoding DYRK1 or increasing its expression.

Other compositions of the present disclosure increase DYRK1 expression in a cell in a patient. These compositions can include exogenous nucleic acids encoding DYRK1 or increasing its expression. Such compositions can be administered to the patient, such as a patient with a cancer or tumor. Such compositions can target delivery of the nucleic acid to cancer or tumor cells or other cells involved in an ID2 protein- related disease.

Other compositions of the present disclosure that increase DYRK1 expression in a cell in a patient can include agents that induce the expression of DYRK1 in the cell. Suitable agents include tetracycline, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RA KL) cytokine, homocysteine, and combinations thereof.

Compositions of the present disclosure can further include a PHD, such as PHDl, PHD2, PHD3, and combinations thereof, such as biologies containing a PHD. Increased amounts of PHD can increase phosphorylation and activity of DYRK1. The PHD can be produced by any suitable method of protein production, such as via culture of a PHD- producing cell, including a recombinant cell containing exogenous nucleic acids encoding a PHD or increases the expression of a PHD.

Any of the above compositions for providing DYRKl to a cell can be present in a combined composition or a combined therapeutic plan in which more than one of the above compositions is administered to the cell in the patient.

The present disclosure further provides for pharmaceutical compositions which include a therapeutic composition as described herein. Such pharmaceutical compositions can further include at least one other agent, such as a stabilizing compound or additional therapeutic agent, and can be administered in any sterile, biocompatible pharmaceutical carrier, including, but not limited to, saline, buffered saline, dextrose, and water. The pharmaceutical compositions can also further include an excipient. The composition can be in a liquid or lyophilized form and includes a diluent (Tris, citrate, acetate or phosphate buffers) having various pH values and ionic strengths, solubilizer such as Tween® or polysorbate, carriers such as human serum albumin or gelatin, preservatives such as thimerosal, parabens, benzylalconium chloride or benzyl alcohol, antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium metabi sulfite, and other components such as lysine or glycine. Selection of a particular composition will depend upon a number of factors, including the condition being treated, the route of administration and the pharmacokinetic parameters desired. A more extensive survey of components suitable for pharmaceutical compositions is found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th ed. A. R. Gennaro, ed. Mack, Easton, PA (1980).

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be formulated using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers well known in the art in dosages suitable for oral, parenteral, such as intravenous, or topical administration. Such carriers enable the pharmaceutical compositions to be formulated as tablets, pills, capsules, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, enema formulations, stabilized injectable formulations, and the like, for oral, parenteral, such as intravenous, or topical administration to a patient to be treated. Formulations can include, for example, polyethylene glycol, cocoa butter, glycerol, saline, a protein stabilizing agent, a pH control agent, and the like.

Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for use in the present invention include where the active ingredients are contained in an effective amount to achieve the intended purpose. The amount can vary from one individual to another and will depend upon a number of factors. Single or multiple administrations of formulations can be given depending on the dosage and frequency as required and tolerated by the patient. In certain embodiments, the formulations should provide a sufficient quantity of an active agent to effectively treat and ID2 protein-related disease, such as cancer or a tumor by accelerating HIFa 5 degradation in an affected cell or decreasing HIFa half-life in an affected cell as

compared to in the absence of such a composition.

Methods ofID2 Protein-Related Disease Treatment

The present disclosure further relates to methods of treating an ID2 proteini c) related disease and uses of compositions for treating an ID2 protein-related disease by increasing the degradation of HIFa, particularly HIF2a, in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, or by decreasing HIFa, particularly HIF2a, half-life in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, as compared to an untreated cell. The methods and uses can operate by increasing the phosphorylation of ID2 on Thr 15 27. The methods and uses can increase the amount or activity of DYRKl in a cell, such that phosphorylation of ID2 on Thr 27 is increased.

Effects on untreated cells can be estimated from other data and information regarding the ID2 protein-related disease and need not be untreated cells from the same patent administered the composition.

0 The cell may be located in a patient, who can be a human patient or a non-human patient. A non-human patient can be a mammal or a non-mammal with an anlogof human Tyr 27 in ID2 that regalates VHC -binding based on phosphorylation. In certain embodiments, a non-human can be a dog, a cat, a cow, a horse, a sheep, a goat, or a pig.

The methods or uses can include administering to a patient having an ID2 5 protein-related disease any composition described herein in any formulation described herein and by any method described herein in an amount and for a time sufficient to increase the degradation of HIFa, particularly HIF2a, in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, decrease HIFa, particularly HIF2a, half-life in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, as compared to an untreated cell, 30 increase the phosphorylation of ID2 on Thr 27 in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, as compared to an untreated cell, or increase the amount or activity of DYRKl in a cell affected by the disease, such as a cancer or tumor cell, as compared to an untreated cell.

The methods or uses can include oral, parenteral, such as intravenous, or topical administration.

The methods or uses can prevent or treat and ID2 protein-related disease and can achieve a more favorable outcome for the patient than if the method or use were not employed. In the preventative context, the method or use can delay or prevent the onset of one or more symptoms of an ID2 protein-related disease for at least a set period of time. In the treatment context, the method or use can delay or prevent the progression of one or more symptoms of an ID2 protein-related disease for at least a set period time, cause a regression of one or more symptoms of an ID2 protein-related disease for at least a set period of time, and/or cause the disappearance of one or more symptoms of and ID2 protein-related disease for at least a set period of time. In each instance described above the set period of time can be at least one month, at least one year, at least five years, or at least ten years.

Methods or uses described herein can be used to treat cancer, a tumor, metabolic diseases, vascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and/or renal diseases. In particular, methods and uses described herein can be used to treat gliomas, particularly malignant gliomas, such as a glioblastoma. The methods and uses described herein can also be used to treat a retinoblastoma, a ewings sarcoma, or a lymphoma. In particular, methods and uses described herein can be used to treat Alzheimer's disease.

In one example method or use increased phosphorylation of ID2 can occur via activation of DYRK1. Such phosphorylated ID2 can disassociate from the VHL ubiquitin ligase complex, increasing the binding of cullin 2 to VHL, and thereby increasing the ubiquitylation and degradation of HIF2a.

In another example method or use, a composition containing one or more DYRK1 activator can be used to increase phosphorylation of ID2, thereby restraining ID2 activity and increasing the ubiquitylation and degradation of HIF2a. Such activators can be selected from: prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs), tetracycline, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RA KL) cytokine, homocysteine, nucleic acids encoding DYRK1, and combinations thereof. DYRK1 protein can also be administered, as can reagents useful to increase the expression of DYRK1.

In certain embodiments, the methods and uses can involve deletion of the Idl and

Id2 genes in malignant glioma to result in a marked reduction of HIF2a protein. Accordingly, deletion of said genes or inactivation, e.g., via RNAi or other methods known in the art, of the genes can be employed to regulate the degradation of HIF2a. Tetracycline-induced expression of DYRK1B at levels comparable to normal brain can downregulates HIF2a in cells, such as, but not limited to, glioma cells, and can reduce HIF2a targets that promote stem cell functions. Expression of DYRKIB can also inhibit tumor cell proliferation in vivo, resulting in tumor reduction. Increasing the expression of wild-type DYRKIB in cells, such as, but not limited to glioma cells, can significantly increases survival and tumor latency.

EXAMPLES

The presently disclosed subject matter will be better understood by reference to the following Examples, which are provided as exemplary of the invention, and not by way of limitation.

Example 1: Materials and Methods

The following materials and methods were used throughout the following Examples.

Plasmids, cloning and lentivirus production

A constitutively stabilized mutant of HIF2a (HIF2a-TM) was as described in Warnecke, C. et al. Differentiating the functional role of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-la and HIF-2a (EPAS-1) by the use of RNA interference: erythropoietin is a HIF-2a target gene in Hep3B and Kelly cells. FASEB J. 18, 1462-1464 (2004). The HIF2a-TM (triple mutant) construct harbored the following mutations in the prolyl and asparagyl hydroxylation sites: P405A, P530G and N851A. Polypeptide fragments of DYRKIB were cloned into pcDNA3-HA and included DYRKIB N terminus, N-Ter (amino acids 1-110), DYRKIB kinase domain, KD (amino acids 111-431), and DYRKIB C terminus, C-Ter (amino acids 432-629). cDNAs for RBXl, elongin B and Elongin C were provided by Michele Pagano (New York University) and cloned into the pcDNA vector by PCR. HA-tagged HIFla and HIF2a were obtained from Addgene. GFP- tagged DYRK1 A and DYRKIB were cloned into pcDNA vector. pcDNA-HA-VHL was provided by Kook Hwan Kim (Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Korea). Site-directed mutagenesis was performed using QuickChange or QuickChange Multi Site-Directed mutagenesis kit (Agilent) and resulting plasmids were sequence verified. Lentivirus was generated by co-transfection of the lentiviral vectors with pCMV-AR8.1 and pMD2.G plasmids into FIEK293T cells as described in Niola, F. et al. Mesenchymal high-grade glioma is maintained by the ID-RAPl axis. J. Clin. Invest. 123, 405-417 (2013) and Carro, M. S. et al. The transcriptional network for mesenchymal

Cell Culture and hypoxia induction

IMR-32 (ATCC CCL-127), SK-N-SH (ATCC HTB-11), U87 (ATCC HTB-14),

NCI-H1299 (ATCC CRL-5803), HRT18 (ATCC CCL-244), and HEK293T (ATCC CRL-11268) cell lines were acquired through American Type Culture Collection. U251 (Sigma, catalogue number 09063001) cell line was obtained through Sigma. Cell lines were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Sigma). Cells were routinely tested for mycoplasma contamination using Mycoplasma Plus PCR Primer Set (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA) and were found to be negative. Cells were transfected with Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) or calcium phosphate. Mouse NSCs were grown in Neurocult medium (StemCell Technologies) containing 1 x proliferation supplements (StemCell Technologies), and recombinant FGF-2 and EGF (20 ng ml ^-1 each; Peprotech). GBM-derived glioma stem cells were obtained by de-identified brain tumor specimens from excess material collected for clinical purposes at New York Presbyterian-Columbia University Medical Center. Donors (patients diagnosed with glioblastoma) were anonymous. Progressive numbers were used to label specimens coded in order to preserve the confidentiality of the subjects. Work with these materials was designated as IRB exempt under paragraph 4 and it is covered under IRB protocol #IRB-AAAI7305. GBM-derived GSCs were grown in DMEM:F12 containing l N2 and B27 supplements (Invitrogen) and human recombinant FGF-2 and EGF (20 ng ml ^-1 each; Peprotech). Cells at passage (P) 4 were transduced using lentiviral particle in medium containing 4 ocg ml ^-1 of polybrene (Sigma). Cells were cultured in hypoxic chamber with 1% 0 ₂ (0 ₂ Control Glove Box, Coy Laboratory Products, MI) for the indicated times or treated with a final concentration of 100-300 ^Q M of CoCl ₂ (Sigma) as specified in figure legends.

Mouse neurosphere assay was performed by plating 2,000 cells in 35 mm dishes in collagen containing NSC medium to ensure that distinct colonies were derived from single cells and therefore clonal in origin as described in Reynolds, B. A. & Weiss, S. Clonal and population analyses demonstrate that an EGF -responsive mammalian embryonic CNS precursor is a stem cell. Dev. Biol. 175, 1-13 (1996). Neurosphere formation was observed over serial clonal passages in limiting dilution semi-solid cultures and the cell expansion rate over passages, which is a direct indication of self- renewing symmetric cell divisions as described in Deleyrolle, L. P. et al. Determination of somatic and cancer stem cell self-renewing symmetric division rate using sphere assays. PLoS One. 6, el5844 (2011).

For serial sub-culturing neurospheres were mechanically dissociated into single cells in bulk and re-cultured them under the same conditions for six passages. The number of spheres was scored after 14 days. Only colonies >100 ocm in diameter were counted as spheres. Neurosphere size was determined by measuring the diameters of individual neurospheres under light microscopy. Data are presented as percent of neurospheres obtained at each passage (number of neurospheres scored/number of NSCs plated ^χ 100) in three independent experiments. P value was calculated using a multiple t-test with Holm-Sidak correction for multiple comparisons. To determine the expansion rate, 10,000 cells were plated from 3 independent PI clonal assays in 35 mm dishes and scored the number of viable cells after 7 days by Trypan Blue exclusion. Expansion rate of NSCs was determined using a linear regression model and difference in the slopes (P value) was determined by the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using Prism 6.0 (GraphPad). Limiting dilution assay for human GSCs was performed as described in Tropepe, V. et al. Distinct neural stem cells proliferate in response to EGF and FGF in the developing mouse telencephalon. Dev. Biol. 208, 166-188 (1999). Briefly, spheres were dissociated into single cells and plated into 96-well plates in 0.2 ml of medium containing growth factors at increasing densities (1-100 cells per well) in triplicate. Cultures were left undisturbed for 14 days, and then the percent of wells not containing spheres for each cell dilution was calculated and plotted against the number of cells per well. Linear regression lines were plotted, and the minimal frequency of glioma cells endowed with stem cell capacity was estimated (the number of cells required to generate at least one sphere in every well = the stem cell frequency) based on the Poisson distribution and the intersection at the 37% level using Prism 6.0 software. Data represent the means of three independent experiments performed in different days for the evaluation of the effects of ID2, ID2(T27A) in the presence or in the absence of DYRK1B. LDA for the undegradable HIF2a rescue experiment was performed by using three cultures transduced independently on the same day.

Identification of phosphorylation sites of ID 2

To identify the sites of ID2 phosphorylation from IMR32 human neuroblastoma cells, the immunoprecipitated ID2 protein was excised, digested with trypsin, chymotrypsin and Lys-C and the peptides extracted from the polyacrylamide in two 30 μΐ aliquots of 50% acetonitrile/5% formic acid. These extracts were combined and evaporated to 25 μΐ for MS analysis. The LC-MS system consisted of a state-of-the-art Finnigan LTQ-FT mass spectrometer system with a Protana nanospray ion source interfaced to a self-packed 8 cm x 75 μιη id Phenomenex Jupiter 10 μιη CI 8 reversed- phase capillary column. 0.5-5 μΐ volumes of the extract were injected and the peptides eluted from the column by an acetonitrile/0.1 M acetic acid gradient at a flow rate of 0.25 μΐ min-1. The nanospray ion source was operated at 2.8 kV. The digest was analysed using the double play capability of the instrument acquiring full scan mass spectra to determine peptide molecular weights and product ion spectra to determine amino acid sequence in sequential scans. This mode of analysis produced approximately 1200 CAD spectra of ions ranging in abundance over several orders of magnitude. Tandem MS/MS experiments were performed on each candidate phosphopeptide to verify its sequence and locate the phosphorylation site. A signature of a phosphopeptide is the detection of loss of 98 daltons (the mass of phosphoric acid) in the MS/MS spectrum. With this method, three phosphopeptides were found to carry phosphorylations at residues Ser 5, Ser 14 and Thr 27 of the ID2 protein. (FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C )

Generation of phospho-ID 2 -T27 antibody

The anti-phospho-T27-ID2 antibody was generated by immunizing rabbits with a short synthetic peptide containing the phosphorylated T27 (CGISRSK-pT-PVDDPMS) (Yenzym Antibodies, LLC). A two-step purification process was applied. First, antiserum was cross-absorbed against the phospho-peptide matrix to purify antibodies that recognize the phosphorylated peptide. Then, the anti-serum was purified against the un-phosphorylated peptide matrix to remove non-specific antibodies.

Immunoblot, immunoprecipitation and in vitro binding assay

Cells were lysed in P40 lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% P40, 1.5 mM Na3V04, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 10 mM β-glycerolphosphate and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)) or RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% P40, 0.5% sodium dexoycholate, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulphate, 1.5 mM Na3V04, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 10 mM β-glycerolphosphate and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)). Lysates were cleared by centrifugation at 15,000 r.p.m. for 15 min at 4 °C. For immunoprecipitation, cell lysates were incubated with primary antibody (hydroxyproline, Abeam, ab37067; VHL, BD, 556347; DYRK1A, Cell Signaling Technology, 2771; DYRK1B, Cell Signaling Technology, 5672) and protein G/A beads (Santa Cruz, sc-2003) or phospho-Tyrosine (P-Tyr-100) Sepharose beads (Cell Signaling Technology, 9419), HA affinity matrix (Roche, 11815016001), Flag M2 affinity gel (Sigma, F2426) at 4 °C overnight. Beads were washed with lysis buffer four times and eluted in 2x SDS sample buffer.

Membranes were blocked in TBS with 5% non-fat milk and 0.1% Tween20, and probed with primary antibodies. Antibodies and working concentrations are: ID2 1 :500 (C-20, sc-489), GFP 1 : 1,000 (B-2, sc-9996), HIF2a/EPAS-l 1 :250 (190b, sc-13596), c-MYC (9E10, sc-40), and elongin B 1 : 1,000 (FL-118, sc-11447), obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology; phospho-Tyrosine 1 : 1,000 (P-Tyr-100, #9411), HA 1 : 1,000 (C29F4, 3724), VHL 1 :500 (2738), DYRK1A 1 : 1,000, 2771; DYRK1B 1 : 1,000, 5672) and RBX1 1 :2,000 (D3J5I, 11922), obtained from Cell Signaling Technology; VHL 1 :500 (GeneTex, GTX101087); β-actin 1 :8000 (A5441), a-tubulin 1 :8,000 (T5168), and Flag M2 1 :500 (F1804) obtained from Sigma; HIFla 1 :500 (Hlalpha67, B 100- 105) and elongin C 1 : 1,000 ( B 100-78353) obtained from Novus Biologicals; HA 1 : 1000 (3F10, 12158167001) obtained from Roche. Secondary antibodies horseradish-peroxidase-conjugated were purchased from Pierce and ECL solution (Amersham) was used for detection. For in vitro binding assays, HA-tagged RBX1, elongin B, elongin C and VHL were in vitro translated using TNT quick coupled transcription/translation system (Promega). Active VHL protein complex was purchased from EMD Millipore. Purified His-VHL protein was purchased from ProteinOne (Rockville, MD). GST and GST-ID2 proteins were bacterial expressed and purified using glutathione sepharose beads (GE healthcare life science). Active DYRKIB (Invitrogen) was used for in vitro phosphorylation of Flag-ID2 proteins. Biotinylated WT and modified (pT27 and T27W) ID2 peptides (amino acids 14-34) were synthesized by LifeTein (Somerset, NJ). In vitro binding experiments between ID2 and VCB-Cul2 were performed using 500 ng of Flag- ID2 and 500 ng of VCB-Cul2 complex or 500 ng VHL protein in binding buffer (50 mM Tris-Cl, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM β-glycerophosphate, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 1.5 mM Na3V04, 0.2% NP40, 10% glycerol, 0.1 mg ml-1 BSA and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)] at 4°C for 3 h. In vitro binding between ID2 peptides and purified proteins was performed using 2 μg of ID2 peptides and 200 ng of recombinant VCB-Cul2 complex or 200 ng recombinant VHL in binding buffer (50 mM Tris-Cl, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM β-glycerophosphate, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 1.5 mM Na3V04, 0.4% NP40, 10% glycerol, 0.1 mg ml-1 BSA and EDTA- free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)) at 4 °C for 3 h or overnight. Protein complexes were pulled down using glutathione sepharose beads (GE Healthcare Life Science) or streptavidin conjugated beads (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and analysed by immunoblot.

In vitro and in vivo kinase assays

Cdkl, Cdk5, DYRK1A, DYRKIB, ERK, GSK3, PKA, CaMKII, Chkl, Chk2, RSK-1, RSK-2, aurora- A, aurora-B, PLK-1, PLK-2, and NEK2 were all purchased from Life Technology and ATM from EMD Millipore. The 18 protein kinases tested in the survey were selected because they are proline-directed S/T kinases (Cdkl, Cdk5, DYRKIA, DYRKIB, ERK) and/or because they were considered to be candidate kinases for Thr 27, Ser 14 or Ser 5 from kinase consensus prediction algorithms (NetPhosKl .O, www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/NetPhosK/; GPS Version 3.0 gps.biocuckoo.org/#) or visual inspection of the flanking regions and review of the literature for consensus kinase phosphorylation motifs. 1 μg of bacterially purified GST- ID substrates were incubated with 10-20 ng each of the recombinant active kinases. The reaction mixture included 10 μθ of [γ- ³² Ρ]ΑΤΡ (PerkinElmer Life Sciences) in 50 μΐ of kinase buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 5 mM β-glycerophosphate, 2 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), 0.1 mM Na3V04, 10 mM MgC12, and 0.2 mM ATP). Reactions were incubated at 30 °C for 30 min. Reactions were terminated by addition of Laemmli SDS sample buffer and boiling on 95 °C for 5 min. Proteins were separated on SDS-PAGE gel and phosphorylation of proteins was visualized by autoradiography. Coomassie staining was used to document the amount of substrates included in the kinase reaction. In vitro phosphorylation of Flag- ID2 proteins by DYRK1B (Invitrogen) was performed using 500 ng of GST-DYRKIB and 200 ng of bacterially expressed purified Flag-ID2 protein.

In vivo kinase assay in GSCs and glioma cells was performed using endogenous or exogenously expressed DYRK1A and DYRKIB. Cell lysates were prepared in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% P40, 1.5 mM Na3V04, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 10 mM β- glycerolphosphate and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)). DYRK1 kinases were immunoprecipitated using DYRKIA and DYRKIB antibodies (for endogenous DYRK1 proteins) or GFP antibody (for exogenous GFP-DYRKl proteins) from 1 mg cellular lysates at 4 °C. Immunoprecipitates were washed with lysis buffer four times followed by two washes in kinase buffer as described above and incubated with 200 ng purified Flag-ID2 protein in kinase buffer for 30 min at 30 °C. Kinase reactions were separated by SDS-PAGE and analysed by western blot using p-T27-ID2 antibody.

Protein half-life and stoichiometry

HIF2a half-life was quantified using ImageJ processing software (NTH). Densitometry values were analysed by Prism 6.0 using the linear regression function. Stoichiometric quantification of ID2 and VHL in U87 cells was obtained using recombinant Flag-ID2 and His-tagged-VHL as references. The chemiluminescent signal of serial dilutions of the recombinant proteins was quantified using ImageJ, plotted to generate a linear standard curve against which the densitometric signal generated by serial dilutions of cellular lysates (1 ^χ 10 ⁶ U87 cells) was calculated. Triplicate values ± s.e.m. were used to estimate the ID2:VHL ratio per cell. The stoichiometry of pT27-ID2 phosphorylation was determined as described in Miinea, C. P. & Lienhard, G. E. Stoichiometry of site-specific protein phosphorylation estimated with phosphopeptide- specific antibodies. Biotechniques 34, 828-831 (2003). Briefly, SK-N-SH cells were plated at density of 1 x 10 ⁶ in 100 mm dishes. Forty-eight hours later 1.5 mg of cellular lysates from cells untreated or treated with CoC12 during the previous 24 h were prepared in RIPA buffer and immunoprecipitated using 4 μg of pT27-ID2 antibody or rabbit IgG overnight at 4 °C. Immune complexes were collected with TrueBlot anti- rabbit IgG beads (Rockland), washed 5 times in lysis buffer, and eluted in SDS sample buffer. Serial dilutions of cellular lysates, IgG and pT27-ID2 immunoprecipitates were loaded as duplicate series for SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis using ID2 or p-T27- ID2 antibodies. Densitometry quantification of the chemiluminescent signals was used to determine (1) the efficiency of the immunoprecipitation using the antibody against p- ID2-T27 and (2) the ratio between efficiency of the immunoprecipitation evaluated by western blot for p-T27-ID2 and total ID2 antibodies. This represented the percent of phosphorylated Thr 27 of ID2 present in the cell preparation.

Identification ofID2 complexes by mass spectrometry

Cellular ID2 complexes were purified from the cell line NCI-H1299 stably engineered to express Flag-HA-ID2. Cellular lysates were prepared in 50 mM Tris-HCl, 250 mM NaCl, 0.2% P40, 1 mM EDTA, 10% glycerol, protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Flag-HA-ID2 immunoprecipitates were recovered first with anti-Flag antibody-conjugated M2 agarose (Sigma) and washed with lysis buffer containing 300 mM NaCl and 0.3% NP40. Bound polypeptides were eluted with Flag peptide and further affinity purified by anti-HA antibody-conjugated agarose (Roche). The eluates from the HA beads were analysed directly on long gradient reverse phase LC-MS/MS. A specificity score of proteins interacting with ID2 was computed for each polypeptide by comparing the number of peptides identified from our mass spectrometry analysis to those reported in the CRAPome database that includes a list of potential contaminants from affinity purification-mass spectrometry experiments («http://www.crapome.org »as accessed January, 2016). The specificity score was computed as [(#peptide*#xcorr)/(AveSC*MaxSC* # of Expt.)], #peptide, identified peptide count; #xcorr, the cross-correlation score for all candidate peptides queried from the database; AveSC, averaged spectral counts from CRAPome; MaxSC, maximal spectral counts from CRAPome; and # of Expt., the total found number of experiments from CRAPome.

Ubiquitiylation assay

U87 cells were transfected with pcDNA3 -HA-HIFa (HIFla or HIF2a), pcDNA3- Flag-ID2 (WT or T27A), pEGFP-DYRKlB and pcDNA3-Myc-Ubiquitin. 36 h after transfection, cells were treated with 20 μΜ MG132 (EMD Millipore) for 6 h. After washing with ice-cold PBS twice, cells were lysed in 100 μΐ of 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl (TBS) containing 2% SDS and boiled at 100 °C for 10 min. Lysates were diluted with 900 μΐ of TBS containing 1% P40. Immunoprecipitation was performed using 1 mg of cellular lysates. U biquitylated proteins were immunoprecipitated using anti-Myc antibody and analysed by western blot using HA antibody.

Docking of ID 2 peptide to the VCB complex

A highly accurate flexible peptide docking method implemented in ICM software (Molsoft LLC, La Jolla CA) was used to dock ID2 peptides to VCB or components thereof as described in Bordner, A. J. & Abagyan, R. Ab initio prediction of peptide- MHC binding geometry for diverse class I MHC allotypes. Proteins 63, 512-526 (2006). A series of overlapping peptides of varying lengths were docked to the complex of VHL and elongin C (EloC), or VHL or EloC alone, from the crystallographic structure of the VHL-CRL ligase (Nguyen, H. C, Yang, H., Fribourgh, J. L., Wolfe, L. S. & Xiong, Y. Insights into Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase recruitment: structure of the VHL-EloBC- Cul2 complex. Structure 23, 441-449 (2015)). Briefly, an all-atom model of the peptide was docked into grid potentials derived from the X-ray structure using a stochastic global optimization in internal coordinates with pseudo-Brownian and collective 'probability- biased' random moves as implemented in the ICM program. Five types of potentials for the peptide-receptor interaction energy— hydrogen van der Waals, non-hydrogen van der Waals, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobicity and electrostatics— were precomputed on a rectilinear grid with 0.5 A spacing that fills a 34 A x 34 A x 25 A box containing the VHL-EloC (V-C) complex, to which the peptide was docked by searching its full conformational space within the space of the grid potentials. The preferred docking conformation was identified by the lowest energy conformation in the search. The preferred peptide was identified by its maximal contact surface area with the respective receptor.

Ab initio folding and analysis of the peptides was performed as previously described in Abagyan, R. & Totrov, M. Biased probability Monte Carlo conformational searches and electrostatic calculations for peptides and proteins. J. Mol. Biol. 235, 983- 1002 (1994) and Almond, D. & Cardozo, T. Assessment of immunologically relevant dynamic tertiary structural features of the HIV-1 V3 loop crown R2 sequence by ab initio folding. J. Vis. Exp. 43, 2118 (2010). Ab initio folding of the ID2 peptide and its phospho-T27 mutant showed that both strongly prefer an a-helical conformation free (unbound) in solution, with the phospho-T27 mutant having a calculated free energy almost 50 kcal-equivalent units lower than the unmodified peptide.

RT-PCR

Total RNA was prepared with Trizol reagent (Invitrogen) and cDNA was synthesized using Superscript II Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen) as described in Warnecke, C. et al.

Subcutaneous and intracranial xentografr glioma models

Mice were housed in pathogen-free animal facility. All animal studies were approved by the IACUC at Columbia University (numbers AAAE9252; AAAE9956). Mice were 4-6-week-old male athymic nude (Nu/Nu, Charles River Laboratories). No statistical method was used to pre-determine sample size. No method of randomization was used to allocate animals to experimental groups. Mice in the same cage were generally part of the same treatment. The investigators were not blinded during outcome assessment. In none of the experiments did tumours exceed the maximum volume allowed according to our IACUC protocol, specifically 20 mm in the maximum diameter. 2 ^χ 10 ⁵ U87 cells stably expressing a doxycycline inducible lentiviral vector coding for DYRK1B or the empty vector were injected subcutaneously in the right flank in 100 μΐ volume of saline solution (7 mice per each group). Mice carrying 150-220 mm ³ subcutaneous tumours (21 days from injection) generated by cells transduced with DYRK1B were treated with vehicle or doxycycline by oral gavage (Vibramycin, Pfizer Labs; 8 mg ml-1, 0.2 ml/day as described in Cawthorne, C, Swindell, R., Stratford, I. J., Dive, C. & Welman, A. Comparison of doxycycline delivery methods for Tet-inducible gene expression in a subcutaneous xenograft model. J. Biomol. Tech. 18, 120-123

(2007); mice carrying tumours generated by cells transduced with the empty vector were also fed with doxycycline. Tumour diameters were measured daily with a caliper and tumour volumes estimated using the formula: width ² x length/2 = V (mm ³ ). Mice were euthanized after 5 days of doxycycline treatment. Tumours were dissected and fixed in formalin for immunohistochemical analysis. Data are means ± s.d. of 7 mice in each group. Statistical significance was determined by ANCOVA using GraphPad Prism 6.0 software package (GraphPad).

Orthotopic implantation of glioma cells was performed as described in Warnecke, C. et al. Differentiating the functional role of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-la and HIF-2a (EPAS-1) by the use of RNA interference: erythropoietin is a HIF-2a target gene in Hep3B and Kelly cells. FASEB J. 18, 1462-1464 (2004) using 5 χ 104 U87 cells transduced with pLOC-vector, pLOC-DYRKlB WT or pLOC-DYRKlB-K140R mutant in 2 μΐ phosphate buffer. In brief, 5 days after lentiviral infection, cells were injected 2 mm lateral and 0.5 mm anterior to the bregma, 2.5 mm below the skull of 4-6-week-old athymic nude (Nu/Nu, Charles River Laboratories) mice. Mice were monitored daily for abnormal ill effects according to AAALAS guidelines and euthanized when neurological symptoms were observed. Tumours were dissected and fixed in formalin for immunohistochemical analysis and immunofluorescence using V5 antibody (Life technologies, 46-0705) to identify exogenous DYRKIB and an antibody against human vimentin (Sigma, V6630) to identify human glioma cells. A Kaplan-Meier survival curve was generated using the GraphPad Prism 6.0 software package (GraphPad). Points on the curves indicate glioma related deaths (n = 7 animals for each group, p was determined by log rank analysis). Non-glioma related deaths were not observed. Mice injected with U87 cells transduced with pLOC-DYRKlB WT that did not show neurological signs on day 70 were euthanized for histological evaluation and shown as tumour-free mice in FIG. 13G.

Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence

Tissue preparation and immunohistochemistry on tumour xenografts were performed as previously described in Warnecke, C. et al. Differentiating the functional role of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-la and HIF-2a (EPAS-1) by the use of RNA interference: erythropoietin is a HIF-2a target gene in Hep3B and Kelly cells. FASEB J. 18, 1462-1464 (2004), Almond, D. & Cardozo, T. Assessment of immunologically relevant dynamic tertiary structural features of the HIV-1 V3 loop crown R2 sequence by ab initio folding. J.

Comparison of doxycycline delivery methods for Tet-inducible gene expression in a subcutaneous xenograft model. J. Biomol. Tech. 18, 120-123 (2007). Antibodies used in immunostaining are: HIF2a, mouse monoclonal, 1 :200 (Novus Biological, NB100-132); 01ig2, rabbit polyclonal, 1 :200 (IBL International, JP18953); human Vimentin 1 :50 (Sigma, V6630), Bromodeoxyuridine, mouse monoclonal 1 :500 (Roche, 11170376001), V5 1 :500 (Life technologies, 46-0705). Sections were permeabilized in 0.2% tritonX-100 for 10 min, blocked with 1% BSA-5% goat serum in PBS for 1 h. Primary antibodies were incubated at 4 °C overnight. Secondary antibodies biotinylated (Vector Laboratories) or conjugated with Alexa594 (1 :500, Molecular Probes) were used. Slides were counterstained with haematoxylin for immunohistochemistry and DNA was counterstained with DAPI (Sigma) for immunofluorescence. Images were acquired using an Olympus 1X70 microscope equipped with digital camera and processed using Adobe Photoshop CS6 software. BrdU-positive cells were quantified by scoring the number of positive cells in five 4E ^" mm ² images from 5 different mice from each group. Blinding was applied during histological analysis. Data are presented as means of five different mice ± standard deviation (s.d.) (two-tailed Student's t-test, unequal variance).

Computational analysis of dependency of the HIF2a regulon on ID2 activity To determine if ID2 modulates the interactions between HIF2a and its transcriptional targets a modified version of MINDy algorithm as described in Wang, K. et al. Genome-wide identification of post-translational modulators of transcription factor activity in human B cells. Nature Biotechnol. 27, 829-837 (2009), called CINDy and described in Giorgi, F. M. et al. Inferring protein modulation from gene expression data using conditional mutual information. PLoS ONE 9, el09569 (2014) was used. CINDy uses adaptive partitioning method to accurately estimate the full conditional mutual information between a transcription factor and a target gene given the expression or activity of a signalling protein. Briefly, for every pair of transcription factor and target gene of interest, it estimates the mutual information that is, how much information can be inferred about the target gene when the expression of the transcription factor is known, conditioned on the expression/activity of the signalling protein. It estimates this conditional mutual information by estimating the multi-dimensional probability densities after partitioning the sample distribution using adaptive partitioning method. The CINDy algorithm was applied on gene expression data for 548 samples obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Since the activity level and not the gene expression of ID2 is the determinant of its modulatory function that is, the extent to which it modulates the transcriptional network of HIF2a, an algorithm called Virtual Inference of Protein- activity by Enriched Regulon analysis (VIPER) was used to infer the activity of ID2 protein from its gene expression profile as described in Alvarez, M. J., Giorgi, F. M. & Califano, A. Using viper, a package for virtual inference of protein-activity by enriched regulon analysis. Bioconductor, 1-14 (2014). VIPER method allows the computational inference of protein activity, on an individual sample basis, from gene expression profile data. It uses the expression of genes that are most directly regulated by a given protein, such as the targets of a transcription factor (TF), as an accurate reporter of its activity. The targets of ID2 were defined by running ARACNe algorithm on 548 gene expression profiles and use the inferred 106 targets to determine its activity as shown in Table 1.

Of these 277 targets, 77 are significantly modulated by ID2 activity (P value < 0.05). Among the set of target genes whose expression was significantly positively correlated (P value < 0.05) with the expression of HIF2a irrespective of the activity of ID2, that is, correlation was significant for samples with both high and low activity of ID2, the average expression of target genes for a given expression of HIF2a was higher when the activity of ID2 was high. The same set of target gene were more correlated in high ID2 activity samples compared to any set of random genes of same size ( FIG. 13A), whereas they were not in ID2 low activity samples (FIG. 13B). 25% of all samples with the highest/lowest ID2 activity were selected to calculate the correlation between HIF2a and its targets.

To determine whether regulation of ID2 by hypoxia might impact the correlation between high ID2 activity and HIF2a shown in FIG. 13A and FIG. 13B the effects of ID2 activity versus ID2 expression for the transcriptional connection between HIF2a and its targets were compared. 25% of all patients (n = 548) in TCGA with high ID2 activity and 25%) of patients with low ID2 activity were selected the enrichment of significantly positively correlated targets of HIF2a in each of the groups was tested. This resulted in significant enrichment (P value <0.001) in high ID2 activity but showed no significant enrichment (P value = 0.093) in low ID2 activity samples. Moreover, the difference in the enrichment score (AES) in these two groups was statistically significant (P value <0.05). This significance was calculated by randomly selecting the same number of genes as the positively correlated targets of HIF2a, and calculating the AES for these randomly selected genes, giving AESrand. This step was repeated 1,000 times to obtain 1,000 AESrand that are used to build the null distribution (FIG. 15B). The null distribution was used to estimate P value calculated as (number of AES > AESrand)/ 1,000. Enrichment was observed only when ID2 activity was high but not when ID2 activity was low, thus suggesting that ID2 activity directionally impacts the regulation of targets of HIF2a by HIF2a. Consistently, the significant AES using ID2 activity suggests that ID2 activity is determinant of correlation between HIF2a and its targets.

Conversely, when a similar analysis was performed using ID2 expression instead of ID2 activity, significant enrichment of positively correlated targets of HIF2a both in samples with high expression (P value = 0.025) and low expression of ID2 (P value = 0.048) was found. Given the significant enrichment in both groups, no any significant difference in the enrichment score in the two groups (P value of AES = 0.338) was observed. Thus, while the determination of the ID2 activity and its effects upon the HIF2a-targets connection by VIPER and CINDy allowed determination of the unidirectional positive link between high ID2 activity and HIF2a transcription, a similar analysis performed using ID2 expression contemplates the dual connection between ID2 and HIF2a.

Kapman-Meier analysis for DYRKIA and DYRKIB in human GBM

To test if expression of DYRKIA and DYRKIB are predictor of prognosis, patients were divided into two cohorts based on their relative expression compared to the mean expression of all patients in GBM. The first cohort contained the patients with high expression of both DYRKIA and DYRKIB (n = 101) and the other cohort contained patients with low expression (n = 128). Average expression for both DYRKIA and DYRKIB was used, which individually divide the patient cohort into half and half. However, when the condition that patients should display higher or lower average expression of both these genes was used, then approximately 19% for high expression and 24% for low expression were selected. Selection of these patients was entirely dependent on the overall expression of these genes in the entire cohort rather than a predefined cutoff. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the significant survival benefit for the patients having the high expression of both DYRKIA and DYRKIB (P value = 0.004) compared to the patients with low expression. When similar analysis was performed using only the expression of DYRKIA or DYRKIB alone, the prediction was either non-significant (DYRKIA) or less significant (DYRKIB, p-value = 0.008) when compared to the predictions using the expression of both genes.

Example 2 - Hypoxia regulates phosphorylation of ID 2 by DYRKl

A sequencing analysis of the ID2 gene in cancer cells was performed. Results are presented in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B and revealed that the colorectal cancer cell line HRT- 18 harbors and expresses a mutant ID2 (T27A) protein. Sequencing of DNA from the colon cancer cell line HRT-18 showed a heterozygous mutation resulting in the change of codon-27 from ACC (Thr) to GCC (Ala) (right). (FIG. 3A), Both wild-type and mutant ID2(T27A) were expressed in HRT-18 colon cancer cells. Sequence analysis of representative clones (out of 20 clones) derived from HRT-18 cDNA demonstrated expression of wild-type (left panel) and mutant (right panel) alleles (FIG. 3B).

The importance of Thr 27 in ID2 is also demonstrated by its conservation across species, as illustrated in FIG. 3C.

The primary role of ID proteins is to preserve stem cell properties, a function widely documented in neural stem cells (NSCs). Therefore, to interrogate the significance of the ID2(T27A) mutation, the self-renewing capacity of ID2-null NSCs reconstituted with wild type (WT) or ID2(T27A) was tested (FIG. 4A) Introduction of ID2(T27A) in ID2-null NSCs increased neurosphere formation in serial passages by more than 50% when compared with WT ID2 (P = 0.00883-0.000229; t ratio = 4.772- 12.597) and caused a 2.4-fold increase in cell expansion rate (40.5 ± 1.7 versus 16.7 ± 0.831; P < 0.0001, FIG. 4B, FIG. 4C, FIG. 4D).

From the analysis of 18 candidate kinases, the dual-specificity tyrosine- phosphorylation-regulated protein kinases 1A and IB (DYRK1A and DYRKIB) were identified as the only enzymes able to phosphorylate Thr 27 of ID2 (FIG. 4E and FIG. 3D (presenting the results of an in vitro kinase assay using bacterially expressed GST-ID proteins and recombinant DYRK1A (10 mM) or vehicle for 24 h as analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies)).

The sequence surrounding the Thr 27 residue in ID2 resembles the DYRK1 phosphorylation consensus motif RX(X)(S/T)P as described in Himpel, S. et al. Specificity determinants of substrate recognition by the protein kinase DYRKIA. J. Biol. Chem. 275, 2431-2438 (2000) and is highly conserved in different species as shown in FIG. 3C.

Antibodies against a phospho-T27-ID2 peptide confirmed that ID2 is phosphorylated by WT DYRKIB as described in Lee, K., Deng, X. & Friedman, E. Mirk protein kinase is a mitogen-activated protein kinase substrate that mediates survival of colon cancer cells. Cancer Res. 60, 3631-3637 (2000), but not the inactive DYRK1B(K140R) kinase (FIG. 4A, FIG. 4F (show in phosphorylation of ID2 but not mutant ID2(T27A) by DYRKIB), FIG. 4G (showing phosphorylation of endogens ID2 by DYRKIA in U87 cells), and FIG. 4H (showing phosphorylation of endogenous ID2 by DYRKIB, but not the kinase inactive GFP-D YRK 1 B (K 140R) in U87 cells).

Endogenous and exogenous ID2 and ID2(T27A) co-precipitated endogenous DYRKIA and DYRKIB (FIG. 41 (showing binding between endogenous DYRK1 and ID2) and FIG. 3E (presenting results when U87 cells transfected with Flag-ID2, Flag- ID2(T27A) or the empty vector were immunoprecipitated with Flag antibody and co- precipitated proteins were analyzed by western blot using DYRKIA, DYRK1B and Flag antibodies, β-actin was used as control for loading). Treatment of glioma cells with harmine, a small-molecule inhibitor of DYRKl as described in Gockler, N. et al. Harmine specifically inhibits protein kinase DYRKIA and interferes with neurite formation. FEBS J. 276, 6324-6337 (2009), or combined short hairpin RNA (shRNA)- mediated silencing of DYRKIA and DYRKIB reduced Thr 27 phosphorylation of ID2 (FIG. 5E (showing that silencing of DYRKl downregulates phospho-Thr27 of IDs and increases HIF2a in U87 cells) and FIG. 3F (presenting western blot results for U87 stably transfected with Flag-ID2 and treated with harmine).

The regulatory mechanisms controlling Thr 27 phosphorylation of ID2 were identified. Exposure of human GBM-derived glioma stem cells (GSCs) to hypoxia or hypoxia-mimicking agent cobalt chloride (CoC12) caused loss of Thr 27 phosphorylation (FIG. 6A (showing that hypoxia inhibits phosphorylation of ID2 Thr27 in GSC#1123) and FIG. 7A (presenting western blot analysis with the indicated antibodies of cellular lysates of U87 glioma cells treated with 10 nM CoCl ₂ for the indicated times). Determination of the Thr 27 phosphorylation stoichiometry of ID2 in the neuronal cell line SK-N-SN revealed that 21.08% of ID2 was phosphorylated on Thr 27 in normoxia but the phosphorylation dropped to 2.28% in a hypoxic environment (FIG. 7B (presenting western blot analysis with the indicated antibodies of SK-N-Sh cells treated with 300 mM CoCl ₂ for the indicated times) and FIG. 7C (presenting stoichiometric evaluation of pThr-27-ID2 in SK-N-SH cells untreated or treated with CoCl ₂ for 24 h; cellular lysates were prepared in denaturing buffer and were immunoprecipitated using pT27-ID2 antibody or normal rabbit IgIG; aliquots of whole cellular lysates (WCL, mg) and immunoprecipitates were assayed by western blot using pT27-ID2 and non- phosphorylated ID2 antibodies (upper panels); the efficiency of immunoprecipitation with anti-pT27-ID2 antibody from untreated cells was determined to calculate the percent of the T27-ID2 in the absence and in the presence of CoCl ₂ (lower panel)).

Mirroring the reduction of Thr 27 phosphorylation of ID2, CoCl ₂ reduced DYRKl kinase activity (FIG. 6B (showing data from GFP-DYRKl immunoprecipitates from U87 cells untreated or treated with CoCl ₂ and recombinant Flag-ID2 in an in vitro kinase assay) and FIG. 7D (presenting data from an assay in which 293T cells expressing GFP-DYRKl proteins untreated or treated with 100 mM CoCl ₂ for 12 h were used as a source of active DYRKl kinase; the kinase activity of anti-GFP-DYRKl immunoprecipitates was tested in vitro using bacterially expressed and purified Flag-ID2 as a substrate; kinase reactions were evaluated by western blot using p-T27-ID2 antibodies (top); analysis of kinase reactions by Flag immunoblot showed a similar amount of ID2 protein in each kinase reaction (middle); immunocomplexes were analyzed by western blot using GFP antibody (bottom)).

C0CI ₂ also reduced DYRK1 auto-phosphorylation, an event required for the activity of DYRK1 kinase as described in Himpel, S. et al. Identification of the autophosphorylation sites and characterization of their effects in the protein kinase DYRK1A. Biochem. J. 359, 497-505 (2001) (FIG. 7E (showing data from assays in which lysates from U251 cells expressing GFP-DYRKl proteins untreated or treated with of 100 mM C0CI ₂ for 6 h were immunoprecipitated using GFP antibodies; a western blot was performed using anti-p-Tyrosine (p-Tyr) or GFP antibodies; analysis of WCL showed similar expression levels of DYRK1 proteins, a-tubulin was used as control for loading), FIG. 7F (presenting data from assays in which lysates from 293 T cells expressing GFP-DYRKIA untreated or treated with 100 mM C0CI ₂ for 12 h were immunoprecipitated with anti -p-Tyr antibodies and analyzed by western blot using antibodies against GFP, α-tubulin was used as control for loading), and FIG. 7G (presenting data in which lysates from 293T cells expressing GFP-DYRK1B untreated or treated with 100 mM C0CI ₂ for 12 h were immunoprecipitated with anti-p-Tyr antibodies and analyzed by western blot using antibodies against GFP; α-tubulin was used as control for loading)).

Similarly, exposure of GSCs to low oxygen decreased DYRKIA and DYRKIB tyrosine auto-phosphorylation (FIG. 6C (showing that hypoxia reduces tyrosine phosphorylation by DYRKIA as evaluated by anti-p-Tyr immunoprecipitation in GSC#1123 cells) and FIG. 6D (showing that hypoxia reduces tyrosine phosphorylation by DYRKIB as evaluated by anti-p-Tyr immunoprecipitation in GSC#1123 cells)).

Prolyl hydroxylases PFID1, PFID2 and PFID3 operate as direct sensors of cellular oxygen concentration as described in Kaelin, W. G. Jr & Ratcliffe, P. J. Oxygen sensing by metazoans: the central role of the HIF hydroxylase pathway. Mol. Cell 30, 393-402 (2008) and Semenza, G. L. HTF-1, 0(2), and the 3 PFIDs: how animal cells signal hypoxia to the nucleus. Cell 107, 1-3 (2001). Immunoprecipitation using an antibody that recognizes hydroxyprolines indicated that DYRKIA and DYRKIB carry

hydroxylated prolines, and CoC12 abrogated DYRKl prolyl hydroxylation (FIG. 6E (showing that C0CI ₂ inhibits proline hydroxylation of DYRKIA and DYTRKIB as shown by anti-hydroxyproline immunoprecipitation in U87 glioma cells). DYRKl A and DYRK1B interacted in vivo with PHD1 (FIG. 6F (showing that endogenous DYRKl A and DYRK1B interact with Flag-PDHl in U87 cells).

Further, the expression of PFID1 enhanced prolyl hydroxylation of both DYRK1A and DYRK1B (FIG. 7H (presenting data from assay in which U87 transfected with GFP-DYRK1A, GFP-DYRK1B or GFP and Flag-PHDl, Flag-PHD2, or Flag- PFID3 were immunoprecipitated using anti-hydroxyproline antibody; western blot was performed using GFP antibody (upper panels); lower panels present data for the WCL control)).

In particular, DYRKIB interacted with PFID1 through the kinase domain (FIG. 6G (showing that the kinase domain (KD), but not the N- or C- terminal domains of DYRKIB interact with PFID1 in a co-immunoprecipitation assay)). The activity of DYRK1A and DYRKIB towards Thr 27 of ID2 was potentiated by PHD1 in vitro (FIG. 6H (showing that expression of PDH1 enhances cellular DYRKl kinase activity in an in vitro phosphorylation assay using recombinant ID2)) and in vivo (FIG. 61 (showing that expression of PFID1 enhances DYRKl kinase activity towards ID2 Thr27 in vivo)). Thus, oxygen deprivation induces a constitutively active ID2 by inactivating DYRKl kinases, which are positively regulated substrates of PHD 1.

Example 3 - Phosphorylation ofID2 by DYRKl destabilizes HIF2a

Human GSCs were used to interrogate the effects of DYRKl and ID2(T27A) on

HIF2a and glioma stemness. Lentiviral transduction of the DYRKl -resistant ID2(T27A) mutant in GSC#48 resulted in elevation of HIF2a and enhanced tumor sphere forming capacity as measured by limiting dilution assay (LDA) (FIG. 8A (presenting results of an assay in which GSC#48 cells were transduced with lentiviruses expressing ID2-WT, ID2(T27A), or the empty vector), FIG. 8B (presenting results in which cells were analyzed by in vitro LDA), FIG. 8C (presenting gliomasphere frequency calculated using a representative regression plot of the Data from FIG. 8B; data in the histograms represent means of 3 biological replicates ± s.d.; **P = 0.00163), and FIG. 8D (presenting a set of microphotographs that show representative gliomasphere cultures of cell s treated as in FIG. 8 A)) .

ID2(T27A)-induced accumulation of the HIF2a protein was independent of transcription (FIG. 8E (presenting semi -quantitative RT-PCR analysis of HIFla mRNAs from cells treated in in FIG. 8A)).

When detectable, HIFla levels mirrored those of HIF2a but with more limited changes (FIG. 8F (presenting data from an assay in which U87 cells stably expressing Flag-ID2 or Flag-ID2(T27A) were analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies; arrows point to specific bands; the asterisk indicates a non-specific band)).

Expression of DYRK1 in GSC#34 and GSC#31 reduced HIF2a, the HIF2a target TGFa and the glioma stem cell marker SOX2 (FIG. 5A (showing that phosphorylation of ID2, but not the mutant ID2(T27A) by GFP-DYRK1B downregulates HIF2a), FIG. 8G (presenting data from assay in which GSC#34 cells were transduced with lentiviruses expressing DYRK1B-V5 or empty vector; cells were analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies; the arrow points to specific band; the asterisk indicates a non- specific band), and FIG. 8H (presenting qRT-PCR from cells treated as in FIG. 8G; data in the histograms represent means ± s.d. (n = 9, triplicate experiments each performed in triplicate; ***P = 8.44524 ^χ 10 ^"7 for TGFA))). Also in this case HIF2a mRNA was unchanged (FIG. 81 and FIG. 8J (presenting semiquantitative RT-PCR for HIF2a for mRNA from the assays of FIG. 5A, FIG. 5B, and FIG. 5C).

LDA and serial clonal experiments showed that the DYRK1 -induced decrease of

HIF2a attenuated glioma sternness (FIG. 5B (showing that decreased frequency of gliomaspheres by DYRKIB in m vitro LDA of parallel cultures is rescued by ID2(T27A); data are means of 3 biological replicates ± s.d.; **P = 0.0031 (vector versus DYRKIB); ***P = 0.00022 (DYRKIB versus DYRKIB plus ID2(T27A))), FIG. 5C (presenting a set of microphotographs of representative cultures in FIG. 5B), and FIG. 5D (presenting the serial clonal experiments of cells in FIG. 5B; data are means of 3 biological replicates ± s.d. of percent gliomaspheres; ***p = 0.00059-0.00007 for vector versus DYRKIB plus vector; ***P = 0.0089-0.0008 for ID2(T27A) plus DYRKIB versus DYRKIB plus vector; NS: P = 0.061-0.249 for ID2(T27A) plus DYRKIB versus vector)).

However, accumulation of HIF2a, expression of SOX2 and the frequency of GSCs were restored by co-expression of DYRKl and ID2(T27A) but not ID2(WT) (FIG. 5A-D and FIG. 8K (showing results in an assay in which GSC#31 cells were transduced with lentiviruses expressing DYRKIB and ID2, ID2(T27A), or the empty vector; cells were analyzed by LDA; representative regression plot used to calculate gliomasphere frequency in FIG. 5C).

DYRKl -mediated inhibition of gliomasphere formation was overridden by co- expression of non-degradable HIF2a (HIF2a-TM) (FIG. 8L (presenting results for an ass y in which GSC#31 cells were transduced with lentiviruses expressing DYRKIB or the empty vector in the absence or in the presence of undegradable HIF2a (HIF2a-TM); cells were analyzed by in vitro LDA; representative regression plot used to calculate the frequency of gliomaspheres in cultures from three independent infections)).

Furthermore, silencing of DYRK1 A or DYRK1B upregulated HIF2a and reduced phosphorylation of Thr 27 of ID2, with maximal effects after co-silencing of both DYRK1A and DYRK1B (FIG. 5E (showing that silencing of DYRK1 downregulates phospho-Thr 27 of ID2 and increases HIF2a in U87 cells)).

The effects of DYRK1 and ID2(T27A) on ubiquitylation and the stability of HIFa. DYRK1 -mediated phosphorylation of Thr 27 triggered HIFa ubiquitylation and expression of ID2(T27A) reverted DYRK1 effect were also tested. (FIG. 5F (showing that ubiquitylation of HIF2a is enhanced by DYRK1B and reduced by ID2(T27A) as evaluate by in vivo ubiquitylation (left panels, MYC-Ub immunoprecipitation/HA-HIF2a western blot; right panels, whole cellular lysate (WCL) control) and FIG. 9A (showing results of assays of in vivo ubiquitylation of HIFla protein; U87 cells transfected with the expression plasmids HIFla and MYC-ubiquitin were co-transfected with Flag-ID2, Flag-ID2(T27A), or the empty vector in the presence or in the absence of GFP- DYRK1B; after treatment with MG132 (20 mM) for 6 h, lysates were prepared in denaturing buffer and identical aliquots were immunoprecipitated with antibodies directed against MYC; an anti-HA antibody was used to detect HIFla ubiquitin conjugates (left); whole cellular lysates (WCL) were also analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies (right))).

Similarly, expression of DYRK1B prevented accumulation of HIF2a under hypoxia and co-expression of ID2(T27A) abrogated this response (FIG. 5G (showing that ID2(T27A) elevates HIF2a and opposed DYRKlB-mediated reduction in HIF2a during hypoxia).

DYRK1 accelerated the decay of HIF2a during recovery from exposure to CoCl ₂ and reduced HIF2a half-life, whole and ID2(T27A) countered these effects (FIG. 5H (showing that ID2(T27A) reverts DYRKlB-mediated decrease of HIF2a half-life during recovery from exposure to CoCl ₂ ), FIG. 51 (showing quantification of HIF2a from the results in FIG. 5H), FIG. 9B (showing results of assays in which U87 cells were co- transfected with plasmids expressing HA-HIF2a and GFP-DYRKIB or GFP-vector; cells were treated with 50 mg ml ^-1 of CHX for the indicated times and analyzed by western blot), and FIG. 9C (showing quantification of HIF2a protein from the experiment in FIG. 5B as the log ₂ of the percent of HIF2a relative to untreated cells)). Example 4 - ID2 binds and disrupts the VCB-Cul2 complex

Mass spectrometry analysis of ID2 immunoaffinity complexes as presented in Table 3 and Table 4, revealed that Elongin C, a component of the VCB-Cul2 ubiquitin ligase complex that includes VHL, elongin C, Elongin B, cullin 2, and RBXl is an ID2- associated protein.

Table 4 - List of ID2-associated proteins ranked by the CRAPome specificity score (PartD)

The direct interaction of ID2 with Elongin C and VHL was confirmed in vitro and in vivo (FIG. 10A )showing that recombinant ID2 interacts with elongin C and VHL in a GST pulldown assay (input 10%)), FIG. 9D (showing results of assays in which IMR32 cells were co-transfected with ID2 and Flag- VHL or Flag-HIFla expression vectors; immunoprecipitation was performed using Flag antibody and immunocomplexes and whole cellular lysates (WCL) were analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies) and FIG. 9E (showing results of an assay in which IMR32 cells transfected with Flag-VHL expression vector were used for IgG or ID2 antibody immunoprecipitation. Immunocomplexes and WCL were analyzed by western blot; the arrow points to the specific Flag-VHL band; the asterisk indicates IgG light chain)). ID2 was unable to bind to HIFa proteins (FIG. 9D).

VHL and elongin C interacted strongly with ID2, weakly with ID1 and ID3, and did not bind to ID4 (FIG. 10B (presenting co-immunoprecipitation results that demonstrate that VHL preferentially interacts with ID2), FIG. 9F (showing results of Flag immunoprecipitation of binding reactions of in vitro translated Flag-ID and HA- elongin C proteins; immunocomplexes were analyzed by western blot for HA and Flag), and FIG. 9G (showing the results of assay in which Flag-ID proteins and HA-VHL were translated and incubated in vitro; Flag immunocomplexes were analyzed by western blot for HA and Flag)).

The interaction between ID2 and VHL was mediated by the amino-terminal region of ID2 that includes Thr 27 and did not require the HLH domain (amino acids 35- 76( (FIG. IOC (showing immunoprecipitation and western blot analysis). A more detailed mapping of the regions involved in the VHL-ID2 interaction revealed that amino acids 15-35 of ID2 and the SOCS box of VHL (amino acids 154-174) were required for the binding (FIG. 10D (showing that the N terminus of GST-ID2 is required for the interaction with in vitro translated HA-VHL) and FIG. 10E (showing that amino acids 154-174 of in vitro translated HA-VHL mediate interaction with GST-ID2 (input 10%)).

Lys 159 provides the VHL contact surface for binding to Cul2 as described in Kershaw, N. J. & Babon, J. J. VHL: cullin-g the hypoxic response. Structure 23, 435- 436 (2015). The K159E mutation impaired the interaction with ID2 (FIG. 10E). Consistent with ID2 deletion mapping analysis, an ID2 peptide composed of amino acids 14-34 bound to both VHL and components of the VCB complex pre-assembled in insect cells. However, addition of a phosphate to Thr 27 or mutation of Thr 27 to a bulky hydrophobic amino acid (T27W) prevented the binding to both VHL and the VCB complex (FIG. 10F (showing that phosphorylation of ID2 Thr 27 or the ID2(T27W) mutation disrupt the ID2-VHL interaction as analysed by in vitro streptavidin pull down of biotinylated ID2 peptides in the presence of recombinant VCB-Cul2) and FIG. 9H (showing the results of an in vitro streptavidin pulldown assay of biotinylated ID2 peptides (amino acid 14-34 WT, pT27, and T27W) and in vitro translated HA-VHL; bound polypeptides were detected by western blot)).

These findings were corroborated by computational molecular docking whereby a

N-terminally-derived ID2 peptide (amino acids 15-31) docked preferentially to a groove on the molecular surface of VHL:Elongin C with the N-terminal half of its interaction surface contacting the SOCS box of VHL that binds Cul2 (primarily Lys 159) and the C- terminal half (including Thr 27) fitting snugly into a hydrophobic pocket mostly contributed by the elongin C surface (FIG. 11A (showing a ribbon representation of the backbone of the VHL-Elongin C complex and the predicted binding conformation of the ID2 peptide. VHL (red ribbon), Elongin C (blue ribbon) and the docked ID2 peptide (purple ribbon); Cul2 contact residues are colored yellow ribbon in both VHL and Elongin C; the arrow indicates the ID2 peptide), FIG. 11C (showing the complex of FIG. 11A rotated 90 degrees around an axis parallel to the page so that the perspective is from the arrow shown in FIG. 11 A), and FIG. 11D (showing an .electrostatic molecular surface representation of the VHL-elongin C complex with the docked ID2 peptide; the perspective is the same as in FIG. 11C; the T27 side chain is shown as space-filling spheres and is indicates by the red arrow; the N-terminus and C-terminus of the ID2 peptide are indicated by purple arrows)).

Mutating Thr 27 to phospho-Thr 27 and re-docking resulted in unfavorable energy and displacement of the peptide from this location on the complex (FIG. 11B (showing the docking result for the phospho-Thr-27-ID2 peptide shown from the same perspective as in FIG. 11 A)).

DYRK1 disrupted the interaction between VHL and WT ID2 but did not affect the binding of VHL to ID2(T27A) (FIG. 10G (showing co-immunoprecipitation results demonstrating that DYRKlB-mediate phosphorylation of ID2 disrupts ID2 interaction with VHL in vivo)).

The phosphomimic ID2(T27E) mutant failed to bind VHL and did not promote accumulation of HIF2a (FIG. 12A (showing results of an in vivo binding assay using lysates from U87 cells co-transfected with HA- VHL and Flag-ID2 or Flag-ID2(T27E) expression vectors; flag immunocomplexes were analyzed by western blot using HA and Flag antibodies; whole cell lysates (WCL) were analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies; binding of Flag-ID2 and Flag-ID2(T27E) to the bHLH protein E47 is shown as a control for ID2 binding) and FIG. 12B (showing results of assays in which U87 cells were transfected with Flag-ID2, Flag-ID2(T27A) or Flag-ID2(T27E) plasmids; cellular lysates were analyzed by western blot using the indicated antibodies)).

An in vitro assay was performed using purified proteins that included bacterially expressed Flag-ID2, enzymatically active recombinant DYRKIB and baculovirus- expressed VCB-Cul2 complex or purified VHL. In this system, ID2 bound to VCB- Cul2 complex and VHL in the absence of active DYRKIB, but the interaction was disrupted by DYRKl -mediated phosphorylation of Thr 27 (FIG. 10H (showing in vitro phosphorylation of recombinant ID2 by purified DYRKIB blocks ID2 interaction with VHL and elongin C in the reconstituted VCB-Cul2 complex) and FIG. 12C (showing in vitro binding between purified Flag-ID2 an HisOVHL following in vitro kinase reaction using recombinant DYRK1B and Flag-ID2)).

In the VCB-Cul2 complex, the Cul2 subunit provides the scaffold module for the interaction with the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) as described in Kamura, T. et al. Rbxl, a component of the VHL tumor suppressor complex and SCF ubiquitin ligase. Science 284, 657-661 (1999) and Ohta, T., Michel, J. J., Schottelius, A. J. & Xiong, Y. ROC1, a homolog of APCl 1, represents a family of cullin partners with an associated ubiquitin ligase activity. Mol. Cell 3, 535-541 (1999). To express ID2(T27A), ID2 was loaded onto VCB, and the Cul2/RBX1 module dissociated from the complex in the absence of changes in the total cellular levels of Cul2 and RBX1 (FIG. 101 (showing that ID2(T27A) displaces Cul2 from VCB complex in a co-immunoprecipitation assay in U87 cells)). Challenging the pre-assembled VCB complex with increasing amounts of recombinant Flag-ID2 resulted in progressive dissociation of Cul2 (FIG. 10J (showing progressive dissociation of Cul2 from recombinant VCB complex by increasing concentration of purified Flag-ID2)).

Expression of ID2(T27A) triggered a comparable block of Elongin C-Cul2 association whereas it did not affect the assembly of a Cul5-based complex containing SOCS2, a SOCS protein that cannot bind to ID2(T27A) (FIG. 12D (showing the results of analysis of the HA-Elongin C immunocomplexes in U87 cells transfected with HA- Elongin C in the absence or presence of Flag-ID2(T27A); anti-HA immunoprecipitation reactions and WCL were analyzed by western blot using antibodies against Cul2, HA (Elongin C), and Flag (ID2) and FIG. 12E (showing analysis of the Flag-SOCS2 immunocomplexes in U87 cells transfected with ID2, ID2(T27A) or the empty vector; flag immunoprecipitation reactions and WCL were analyzed by western blot using antibodies against Cul5, ID2, and Flag (SOCS2)).

In glioma cells in which ID2 and VHL are present at a molar ratio of 5.7: 1 (FIG. 12F (showing stoichiometric analysis of ID2 and VHL in cellular lysates; decreasing amount of WCL from 1 ^χ 10 ⁶ U87 cells and purified proteins were assayed by western blot (left); regression plots of densitometry analysis were used to determine ID2 and VHL protein concentration and the ID2:VHL ratio (right))), hypoxia signalling promoted the association between endogenous VHL and ID2 while dissociating Cul2 (FIG. 10K (showing silencing of ID2 in U87 cells reverts CoCl ₂ -mediated dissociation of Cul2 from VHL as evaluated by Co-IP-WB; data for whole cellular lysates (WCL) is also presented) and FIG. 12G (showing the results of immunoprecipitation of endogenous VHL in U87 cells in the presence and in the absence of CoCl ₂ ; Cul2 and VHL are analyzed by western blot; vinculin is shown as loading control)). Silencing of ID2 rescued the dissociation of Cul2 from VCB complex and prevented HIF2a elevation (FIG. 10K). Together, these findings indicate that ID2 activation stabilizes HIF2a by disabling VCB ubiquitin ligase via dissociation of Cul2.

Example 5 - A DYRK1-ID2 pathway controls HIF2a in glioma

To determine whether activation of ID2 enhances HIF2a transcriptional activity in an unbiased fashion, CINDy, an algorithm for high-fidelity reconstruction of post- translational causal dependencies was used to interrogate whether ID2 can affect the activity of HIF2a on its targets in the context of GBM. When applied to a collection of 548 TCGA-derived GBM samples, ID2 activity emerged as the modulator of the transcriptional connection between HIF2a and its activated target genes (FIG. 13A (showing significant and positive targets of HIF2a correlate with HIF2a in GBM with high ID2 activity compared to a set of random genes by GSEA) and FIG. 13B (showing correlations are not significant in GMB with low ID2 activity)).

The activity of ID2 was estimated by the VIPER algorithm, a computational tool designed to infer protein activity from gene expression data. When GBM samples were divided into two groups based on ID2 activity, samples with higher ID2 activity showed significantly stronger correlation between HIF2a and its targets than a set of random genes (P = 0.001) (FIG. 13A). This positive correlation was absent in the cohort of GBM with low ID2 activity (P = 0.093) (FIG. 13B). Consistent with these observations, a marked reduction of HIF2a protein was detected following acute deletion of the Idl and Id2 genes in a mouse model of malignant glioma (FIG. 14A (showing results from an assay in which malignant glioma were induced in Idl ^Flox/Flox _/ _c i2 ^Flox/Flox -Id3 ^~/~ mice via injection of lentivirus expressing RAS-V12-IRES-CRE-ER linked to U6-shp53 cassette into the dentate gyrus; mice were treated for 5 days with tamoxifen or vehicle and euthanized 2 days later; tumors were analyzed by immunohistochemistry using HIF2a and OLIG2 antibodies; nuclei were counterstained with haematoxylin)).

The effects of DYRK1 expression in mouse models of human glioma were also studied. Tetracycline-induced expression of DYRK1B at levels comparable to normal brain ( FIG. 14B (showing western blot analysis of DYRK1B in U87 cells stably expressing a doxycycline inducible DYRK1B or the empty vector; cells were treated with 0.75 mg ml ^-1 doxycycline or vehicle for 36 h; lysates of adult mouse cortex (CX) and cerebellum (CB) were used to compare exogenous DYRK1B with endogenous levels of the protein)), downregulated HIF2a in glioma cells in vitro and in sub-cutaneous xenografts and reduced the expression of the HIF2a targets that promote stem cell functions (FIG. 13C (showing inducible expression of DYRK1B in U87 causes ID2 Thr 27 phosphorylation and downregulation of HIF2a), FIG. 13D (showing qRT-PCR from cells treated as in c; n = 9 (3 biological replicates performed in triplicates) ± s.d. BMI1: *P = 0.0470; PI3KCA: *P = 0.0279; FLT1: *P = 0.0246; POU5F-1: ***P = 0.000796344; NANOG: ***P = 0.000737396; SOX2: *P = 0.028884239 (DYRK1B - Dox versus DYRK1B + Dox)), and FIG. 13E (showing that inducible expression of DYRK1B downregulates HIF2a in subcutaneous xenografts of U87 cells as indicated by immunostaining)).

Expression of DYRK1B also inhibited tumor cell proliferation in vivo, resulting in tumor reduction (FIG. 13F (showing that inducible expression of DYRK1B causes tumor growth inhibition in mice treated as in FIG. 13E; doxycycline (Dox) treatment started at day 0 (n = 7 mice per group; **: P = 0.0040 and 0.0069, DYRK1B - Dox versus DYRK1B + Dox at day 4 and day 5, respectively)), and FIG. 14C (showing tissue sections from experiment in FIG. 13E and FIG. 13.F that were analyzed by immunostaining using BrdU antibodies), and FIG. 14D (showing quantification of BrdU positive cells from the experiment in FIG. 14C; data in the histograms represent means ± s.d. (n = 5; ***p = 3.065 ^χ 10 ^"7 , DYRK1B - Dox versus DYRK1B + Dox); asterisks indicate statistical significance by two-tailed t-test.)

The anti-tumor effects of DYRKIB(WT) or the kinase inactive K140R mutant were evaluated in an orthotopic model of glioma (FIG. 14E (showing western blot analysis of ectopically expressed V5-DYRK1B, V5-DYRK1B-K140R in U87 cells)). Animals bearing glioma cells that expressed DYRKIB(WT) manifested significantly increased survival and tumor latency relative to mice bearing DYRK1B(K140R) or vector transduced cells (FIG. 13G (showing expression of DYRKIB WT but not DYRK1B(K140R) inhibits orthotopic growth of U87 (haematoxylin & eosin staining of brain cross-sections); mice injected with U87-vector or DYRK1B(K140R) were euthanized on day 25; mice injected with U87-DYRK1B were euthanized on day 70) and FIG. 13H (showing a Kaplan-Meier analysis of mice in FIG. 13G (n = 7 animals per group))). Two out of seven mice in the DYRKIB(WT) group developed tumors that failed to express exogenous DYRKIB (FIG. 14F (showing brain cross-sections of mice intracranially injected with U87 cells in FIG. 14E as analyzed by immunofluorescence using V5 antibody (red, upper panels) to identify exogenous DYRKIB and human vimentin antibody (red, lower panels) to identify human glioma cells; nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). T, tumor; B, brain)). This result suggests that active DYRKl kinase is incompatible with tumor growth in this glioma model.

Finally, higher DYRK1A and DYRKIB predicted a more favorable clinical outcome for GBM patients, thus supporting the clinical significance of DYRKl activity in glioma (FIG. 131 and FIG. 15A (showing scatter plot showing the expression of DYRKl A and DYRKIB in GBM; blue and red dots indicate GBM samples with high or low expression of both DYRKl A and DYRKIB, respectively; GBM samples were used for Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to evaluate the prognostic power of the expression of DYRKl A and DYRKIB shown in FIG. 131)).
