The function of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is independent of the endoplasmic reticulum protein OS-9.
The protein "amplified in osteosarcoma-9" (OS-9) has been shown previously to interact with the prolyl hydroxylases PHD2 and PHD3. These enzymes initiate oxygen-dependent degradation of the α-subunit of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), a transcription factor that adapts cells to insufficien...
