Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) controls the expression of a number of genes such as vascular endothelial growth factor and erythropoietin in low oxygen conditions. However, the molecular mechanisms that underlie the activation of the limiting subunit, HIF-1alpha, are still poorly resolved. Results showing that endogenous HIF-1alpha migrated 12 kDa higher than in vitro translated protein led us to evaluate the...
