Abstract: PI3K signalling is the most increased pathway in human cancers. The four isoforms of PI3K are thought to be activated by different redundant mechanisms leading to a common downstream signalling. However, the mutational pattern of PI3K pathway or its level of expression is not sufficient to predict the sensitivity to PI3K inhibitors. By identifying for the first time a phosphopeptide that predict the sensitivity to p110? and/or p110? inhibitors, the inventors provide insight in how to handle heterogeneity of PI3K expression patterns in tumoral samples for the choice of available PI3K-targetting drugs. Accordingly, the present relates to a phosphopeptide characterized by the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:1 (PGTPSDHQSQEASQFER) wherein the threonine residue at position 3 is phosphorylated.

Abstract: Chemically induced dimerizers (AbCIDs) have emerged as one of the most powerful tools to artificially regulate signaling pathways in cells; however, no facile method to identify or design these systems currently exists. The present invention provides a methodology to rapidly generate antibody-based chemically induced dimerizers (AbCIDs) from known small-molecule-protein complexes by selecting for synthetic antibodies that recognize the chemical epitope created by the bound small molecule. Success of this strategy is demonstrated by generating ten chemically-inducible antibodies against the BCL-xL/ABT-737 complex. Three of the antibodies are highly selective for the BCL-xL/ABT-737 complex over BCL-xL alone. Two exemplary important cellular applications of AbCIDs are demonstrated by applying them intracellularly to induce CRISPRa-mediated gene expression and extracellularly to regulate CAR T-cell activation with the small molecule, ABT-737.
