Structural Characterization of Hypoxia Inducible Factor α—Prolyl Hydroxylase Domain 2 Interaction through MD Simulations

The Prolyl Hydroxylases (PHDs) are an enzymatic family that regulates cell oxygen-sensing. PHDs hydroxylate hypoxia-inducible transcription factors α (HIFs-α) driving their proteasomal degradation. Hypoxia inhibits PHDs activity, inducing HIFs-α stabilization and cell adaptation to hypoxia. As a hal...
