ferritin heavy chain | i.e. FTH1, directly activates FIH to hydroxylate HIF-1alpha to ensure its normoxic inactivation. In iron-rich conditions, the transcriptional activity of HIF-1alpha is also inhibited due to forceful induction of FTH1 | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | ferritin heavy chain FTH1 directly interacts with FIH. FTH1 facilitates the FIH-mediated Asn803 hydroxylation in hypoxia-inducible factor HIF-1alpha and prevents the recruitment of p300 to HIF-1alpha through the Asn803 hydroxylation. FTH1 represses the transcriptional activity of HIF-1alpha in HCT-116 cells under either normoxic or hypoxic conditions and downregulates the expression of the HIF-1 target genes | Homo sapiens |
