Abstract:
Tumour hypoxia has been widely implicated in the development of aggressive, therapy resistant malignant disease. Patients presenting with more hypoxic tumours experience higher levels of mortality compared to those with lower levels of hypoxia. The primary reason or this increased phenotype is the stabilisation of the transcription factor hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). Upon exposure to hypoxic conditions, the alpha subunit of this heterodimer Stabilised and binds to the beta subunit.

The hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is a key regulator of transcriptional responses to hypoxia in animals.

Human HIF-lα prolyl hydroxylation occurs at Pro402 and Pro564 while asparaginyl hydroxylation occurs at Asn803. Asparaginyl hydroxylation blocks the HIF-la interaction with the p300/CBP eo-activator, thus inhibiting HIF transcriptional activation.
