• Background: HIF prolyl 4-hydroxylases (PHDs) are proyl hydroxylase domain-containing enzymes (PHD1/ Egln2, PHD2/ Egln1, PHD3/ Egln3, and P4H-TM) that mediate important physiological responses to hypoxia by modulating HIF1alpha levels. The HIF-alpha is regulated by hydroxylation, both by a family of PHDs leading to ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, and by transcriptional inactivation following asparaginyl hydroxylation by FIH (factor inhibiting HIF). Under normoxic conditions, HIF Prolyl Hydroxylase 2 (HIF1-PH; also called PHD1 or Egln2) catalyzes the post-translational formation of 4-hydroxyproline through hydroxylation of a specific proline found in each of NODD/CODD domains of HIF1A and also hydroxylates HIF2A with preference for CODD site of HIF1A/HIF1B. After hydroxylation, HIFs undergo proteasomal degradation via VHL (von Hippel-Lindau) ubiquitination complex. However, under hypoxic conditions, the hydroxylation reaction is tempered which allows HIFs to escape degradation process followed by their nuclear translocation, heterodimerization with HIF1B, and increased expression of hypoxia-inducible genes. HIF1-PH, through regulating HIF1 stability, is involved in various hypoxia-influenced processes such as angiogenesis in retinal/cardiac functionality as well as tumor angiogenesis, and defecticve EGLN1 have been linked to ECYT3 (familial erythrocytosis type 3).

• Note: This HIF Prolyl Hydroxylase 2 antibody is useful for Western blot, Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin embedded sections and Immunoprecipitation. In Western blot a band is seen ~43 kDa representing HIF Prolyl Hydroxylase 2. There is also a non-specific band of similar intensity at ~75 kDa.
