    Sammanfattning : Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha) is an important protein in the homeostatic control of genes in response to low oxygen, or hypoxia. It is thus also a key factor in the regulation of angiogenesis in response to hypoxia, including induction of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene expression. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Analysis of HIF-1alpha degradation and function

    Sammanfattning : HIF-1 is a heterodimeric complex of two bHLH/PAS transcription factors, HIF- 1alpha and ANRT. In contrast to the constitutively expressed ARNT, HIF-1alpha protein levels are regulated by oxygen tension. Under normoxic conditions, HIF-1alpha is rapidly degraded by the ubiquitinproteasome pathway. LÄS MER
