Identification and function of hypoxia-response genes in Drosophila melanogaster.

Abstract excerpt

Hypoxia, an insufficient level of oxygen in the cell, occurs during normal activity and also in pathological conditions such as ischemia and tumorigenesis. Although many hypoxia-response genes have been identified, an understanding of the functional role for these genes in the living animal is lacking. Here we present a genome-wide study of gene expression changes during hypoxia and then functionally test a...
