Activation of Hypoxia-inducible Transcription Factor Depends Primarily upon Redox-sensitive Stabilization of Its α Subunit

TL;DR: Results suggest that an intact redox-dependent signaling pathway is required for destablization of the HIF-1α protein, which was rapidly and drastically decreased in vivo following an abrupt increase to normal oxygen tension.
Journal ArticleDOI

An essential role for p300/CBP in the cellular response to hypoxia

TL;DR: In this article, the intact cDNA for HIF-1α and p300/CBP were cloned and shown to participate in the induction of hypoxia-responsive genes, including vascular endothelial growth factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Further identification of the nature and linkage of the carbohydrate in hemoglobin A1c.

TL;DR: It is found that Hb A1c contains neutral sugars which are only partially hydrolyzed from the N-termini of β chains, and it is proposed that in the red cell, glucose binds to the α-amino position of hemoglobin β-chains (valine) in an aldimine (Schiff base) linkage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of the erythropoietin gene.

TL;DR: Erythropoietin (Epo), the hormone that stimulates red blood cell production, is induced by hypoxia and the human hepatoma cell line, Hep3B, is utilized to investigate the regulation of the Epo gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia-inducible factor and its biomedical relevance.

TL;DR: This Minireview summarizes a large body of recent information on the oxygen-dependent regulation of the subunit of HIF, by both ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation and by transcriptional activation.
