Metazoans adapt to oxygen levels in the environment by making use of intracellular oxygen levels as signals to regulate the transcription of genes essential under normoxic or hypoxic conditions. Central to this mechanism is the oxygen-dependent hydroxylation on specific proline and asparagine residues of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-alpha.[1]

Prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) enzyme (EC 1.14.11.-) is a Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase that catalyzes the trans-4-hydroxylation of the specific proline residues (either Pro-402 or Pro-564) in the transcription factor, (HIF)-alpha.

In mammals, this dioxygenase subfamily originally includes three homolog members but was recently updated: PHD1 (also known as HPH3 and EGLN2), PHD2 (also known as HPH2 and EGLN1), PHD3 (also known as HPH1 and EGLN3), and a newly identified enzyme called P4H-TM (also named as PHD4 and EGLN4).[1]
