General description
Hypoxia-inducible factor 2-α (HIF2) also known as endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1) belongs to the helix-loop-helix/ Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) transcription factor family. The HIF2 gene is mapped to human chromosome 2p21. HIF2 is expressed in endothelial cells, hepatocytes, lung, cardiomyocytes, and renal fibroblasts.
Immunogen
Recombinant protein encompassing a sequence within the center region of human HIF2 alpha.
Application
Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: ICC/IF: 1:100-1:1000, IP: 1:100-1:700, WB: 1:500-1:3000. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the end user.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hypoxia-inducible factor 2-α (HIF2) regulates oxygen physiology and modulates the hypoxic response. It favors chondrosarcoma progression. Mutations in the HIF2 Phe-540 residue abolishes its interaction with von hippel lindau (VHL) and prolyl hydroxylase domain-2 (PHD2). HIF2 regulates erythropoietin synthesis and is implicated in the pathophysiology of excessive erythrocytosis (EE). Mutations in the HIF2 gene impair response to the changes in oxygen tension. A gain-of-function mutation of HIF2 results in Zhuang syndrome.
