"HIF-1 is a heterodimeric transcription factor composed of HIF-1α and HIF-1β [27]."[1]

"We recently discovered a strongly conserved distal 5' [hypoxia response element] HRE and suggested that it might contribute to oxygen-regulated [Erythropoietin] EPO expression.18 This 5' HRE resides within a DNaseI hypersensitive site - 9.2 kb upstream of the EPO transcriptional start site, [WT CATACGTGCAGGGAGACACA], contains both the 5'-ACGTG-3' core [hypoxia-inducible factor] HIF DNA binding site as well as the ancillary 5'-CACA-3' element,11 and confers hypoxia-inducible exogenous reporter gene expression in Epo expressing and non-expressing cell lines.18"[2]

Human genes

Gene expressions

"We have previously shown for PAG1, another HIF-2 target gene, that a single distal - 82 kb 5' HRE resides in an isolated DNA region, bound by many additional transcription factors, and forms multiple chromatin loops both locally and over a long distance with the promoter region.21 While in this case HIF-2α did interact with the HRE, neither hypoxia nor the presence of HIF was needed for the long-range chromatin interaction with the promoter region. Only the presence of the core 5'-ACGTG-3' HIF binding DNA sequence was required to maintain this interaction, suggesting that preformed chromatin loops enable oxygen-regulated conditional gene regulation. This model has subsequently been confirmed for many other HIF target genes by genomewide approaches.38,39 Therefore, the EPO 5' HRE might well be functionally required for hypoxia-inducible gene expression by maintaining a constitutive chromatin architecture that supports promoter activity in a cell type-specific manner. The finding that only additional large but not small 5' HRE deletions fully abrogated endogenous Epo induction and HIF:promoter interaction in 3' HRE mutant Kelly cells suggests that, like in the case of the PAG1 gene, additional transcription factors bind close to the consensus HRE sequence and are involved in chromatin looping and trans-activation of the EPO promoter. We still have no explanation why a small 5' HRE deletion alone inhibited HIF-promoter interaction, but in combination with a 3' HRE mutation partially rescued the inhibitory effect of the 3' HRE mutation. Nonetheless, it is without precedent that the extended 5' HRE strongly cis-enhanced HIF binding to the promoter and 3' HRE."[2]

Interactions

Consensus sequences

The binding site for HIF-1 is GCCCTACGTGCTGTCTCA.[1]

Comparison:

The occurrences of real hypoxia-inducible factors are greater than the randoms, low UTRs overlap the randoms. This suggests that the real hypoxia-inducible factors are likely active or activable.
