Mechanism of molecular oxygen diffusion in a hypoxia-sensing prolyl hydroxylase using multiscale simulation

The chronic response of animals to hypoxia is mediated by the αβ-heterodimeric hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (α,β-HIFs) which upregulate the expression of sets of genes that work to ameliorate the effects of limiting dioxygen. The HIF prolyl hydroxylase domain enzymes (PHDs) are Fe(II)- an...
