Peptide blockade of HIFalpha degradation modulates cellular metabolism and angiogenesis.
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF) is a transcription factor central to oxygen homeostasis. It is regulated via its alpha isoforms. In normoxia they are ubiquitinated by the von Hippel-Lindau E3 ligase complex and destroyed by the proteasome, thereby preventing the formation of an active transcription...
