Preparation and Storage

Background: FIH-1/HIF-1AN

Factor-inhibiting hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (FIH-1), also known as HIF-1AN, is a 40-45 kDa oxygenase that hydroxylates asparagine, aspartate, and histidine residues in target proteins. Its homodimerization is required for substrate recognition. Under normoxic conditions, FIH-mediated hydroxylation inhibits the function of HIF-1 alpha and HIF-2 alpha by preventing their association with the transcriptional coactivator p300. FIH activity is inhibited under hypoxic conditions which allows HIF to mediate hypoxia-induced gene transcription. FIH also hydroxylates amino acids within the ankyrin repeat domains (ARD) of various other proteins including IkB-alpha, NFkB1, AnkyrinR, AnkyrinB, Tankyrase 2, MYPT1 smooth muscle myosin phosphatase, and Notch. Human FIH-1 shares 97% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat FIH-1.
