Background Information
EGLN1, also named as PHD2, SM-20, HPH-2 and HIF-PH2, catalyzes the post-translational formation of 4-hydroxyproline in hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) alpha proteins. It hydroxylates HIF-1 alpha at 'Pro-402' and 'Pro-564', and HIF-2 alpha. EGLN1 functions as a cellular oxygen sensor and, under normoxic conditions, targets HIF through the hydroxylation for proteasomal degradation via the von Hippel-Lindau ubiquitination complex. Defects in EGLN1 are the cause of erythrocytosis familial type 3 (ECYT3). EGLN1 has 3 isoforms with MW of 46 kDa, 44 kDa and 36 kDa produced by alternative splicing. It mainly localizes in cytoplasm and can shuttle between the nucleus and cytoplasm (PubMed:19631610). The antibody is specific to EGLN1.
