Targeting of HIF-alpha to the von Hippel-Lindau Ubiquitylation Complex by O2-Regulated Prolyl Hydroxylation

TL;DR: It is shown that the interaction between human pVHL and a specific domain of the HIF-1α subunit is regulated through hydroxylation of a proline residue by an enzyme the authors have termed Hif-α prolyl-hydroxylase (HIF-PH).
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Function of the Prolyl Hydroxylases PHD1, PHD2, and PHD3 in the Regulation of Hypoxia-inducible Factor *

TL;DR: It is shown using suppression by small interference RNA that each of the three PHD isoforms contributes in a non-redundant manner to the regulation of both Hif-1α and HIF-2α subunits and that the contribution of each PHD under particular culture conditions is strongly dependent on the abundance of the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

The oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate inhibits histone lysine demethylases

TL;DR: The results indicate that candidate oncogenic pathways in IDH‐associated malignancy should include those that are regulated by other 2OG oxygenases than HIF hydroxylases, in particular those involving the regulation of histone methylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia-inducible Factor (HIF) Asparagine Hydroxylase Is Identical to Factor Inhibiting HIF (FIH) and Is Related to the Cupin Structural Family

TL;DR: Assays using recombinant FIH and HIF-α fragments revealed that FIH is the enzyme that hydroxylates the CAD asparagine residue, that the activity is directly inhibited by cobalt(II) and limited by hypoxia, and that the oxygen in the alcohol of the hydroxyasparagine residues is directly derived from dioxygen.
