Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are transcription factors responsible for the induction of genes involved in the adaptation to decreases in oxygen availability, known as hypoxia.

Contents

Structure

HIFs are heterodimeric complexes that form part of the basic helix-loop-helix-Per-ARNT-Sim (bHLH-PAS) family of proteins. All subunits are similar in structure and can contain the following domains from the N-terminus to the C-terminus:

  • basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH): important for heterodimer formation and DNA binding to Hypoxia Response Elements (HRE)
  • Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS): mediates protein-protein interactions, helping with heterodimerization
  • Oxygen-dependent degradation domain (ODDD): mediates oxygen-regulated stability. It contains two Proline (P) residues susceptible of hydroxylation and one Lysine (L) that can be acetylated
  • N-terminal and C-terminal transactivating domains (N-TAD and C-TAD): bind different coactivators to promote gene expression


HIF complexes are made of a constitutively expressed subunit HIF-β and an oxygen-regulated subunit, which can be HIF-1α or its paralogs HIF-2α and HIF-3α. The stability and activity of the α subunit is regulated by post-translational modifications such as hydroxilation, ubiquitination, acetylation and phosphorylation. HIF-1β is also known as the aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator (ARNT).
