HIF-1a (556-574) – 1 mg

Overview

The HIF-1a (556-574) peptide is a critical 19-mer fragment of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1a). As a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis, this peptide plays a pivotal role in the body’s response to low oxygen conditions. When the oxygen levels drop, the HIF-1a subunit becomes stabilized, initiating the expression of hypoxia-induced genes. It is essential in the binding process to the von Hippel-Lindau factor (VHL), a key E3 ubiquitin ligase, with proline 564 being crucial for this interaction. Purchase the HIF-1a (556-574) peptide for innovative research and accurate assay development.
