Popis: | In animals, the response to chronic hypoxia is mediated by upregulation of the α,β-heterodimeric hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). Levels of HIFα isoforms, but not HIFβ, are regulated by their post-translational modification as catalysed by prolyl hydroxylase domain enzymes (PHDs). Different roles for the human HIF-1/2α isoforms and their two oxygen-dependent degradation domains (ODDs) are proposed. We report kinetic and NMR analyses of the ODD selectivity of the catalytic domain of wild-type PHD2 (which is conserved in nearly all animals) and clinically observed variants. Studies using Ala scanning and "hybrid" ODD peptides imply that the relatively rigid conformation of the (hydroxylated) proline plays an important role in ODD binding. They also reveal differential roles in binding for the residues on the N- and C-terminal sides of the substrate proline. The overall results indicate how the PHDs achieve selectivity for HIFα ODDs and might be of use in identifying substrate-selective PHD inhibitors. |
