Investigating the contribution of the active site environment to the slow reaction of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase domain 2 with oxygen.
The prolyl hydroxylase domain proteins (PHDs) catalyse the post-translational hydroxylation of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), a modification that regulates the hypoxic response in humans. The PHDs are Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate (2OG) oxygenases; their catalysis is proposed to provide a link between...
