Background: Prolyl Hydroxylase Domain-Containing Protein 3 (PHD3) or Egl-9 Family Hypoxia Inducible Factor 3 (EGLN3), also known as PHIF-PH3 or HPH-3, is a prolyl hydroxylase. PHD3 is a cellular oxygen sensor that catalyzes the post-translational formation of 4-hydroxyproline in hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) alpha proteins under normoxic conditions. It can hydroxylate a specific proline found in each of the oxygen-dependent degradation (ODD) domains (N-terminal, NODD, and C-terminal, CODD) of HIF1A, also HIF2A. PHD3 has a preference for the CODD site for both HIF1A and HIF2A. Hydroxylation on the NODD site by PHD3 appears to require prior hydroxylation on the CODD site, and then hydroxylated HIFs are targeted for proteasomal degradation via the von Hippel-Lindau ubiquitination complex. Under hypoxic conditions, the hydroxylation reaction is attenuated allowing HIFs to escape degradation resulting in their translocation to the nucleus, heterodimerization with HIF1B, and increased expression of hypoxy-inducible genes. PHD3 can also hydroxylate PKM in hypoxia, limiting glycolysis, while under normoxia, hydroxylate and regulates the stability of ADRB2. In cardiomyocytes, it inhibits the anti-apoptotic effect of BCL2 by disrupting the BAX-BCL2 complex. In neurons, it has a NGF-induced proapoptotic effect, probably through regulating CASP3 activity. PHD3 is essential for hypoxic regulation of neutrophilic inflammation. Beside, it plays a crucial role in DNA damage response (DDR) by hydroxylating TELO2, promoting its interaction with ATR which is required for activation of the ATR/CHK1/p53 pathway. Its target proteins are preferentially recognized via a LXXLAP motif.

Uniprot Description
EGLN3: Cellular oxygen sensor that catalyzes, under normoxic conditions, the post-translational formation of 4-hydroxyproline in hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) alpha proteins. Hydroxylates a specific proline found in each of the oxygen-dependent degradation (ODD) domains (N-terminal, NODD, and C-terminal, CODD) of HIF1A. Also hydroxylates HIF2A. Has a preference for the CODD site for both HIF1A and HIF2A. Hydroxylation on the NODD site by EGLN3 appears to require prior hydroxylation on the CODD site. Hydroxylated HIFs are then targeted for proteasomal degradation via the von Hippel-Lindau ubiquitination complex. Under hypoxic conditions, the hydroxylation reaction is attenuated allowing HIFs to escape degradation resulting in their translocation to the nucleus, heterodimerization with HIF1B, and increased expression of hypoxy-inducible genes. EGLN3 is the most important isozyme in limiting physiological activation of HIFs (particularly HIF2A) in hypoxia. Also hydroxylates PKM in hypoxia, limiting glycolysis. Under normoxia, hydroxylates and regulates the stability of ADRB2. Regulator of cardiomyocyte and neuronal apoptosis. In cardiomyocytes, inhibits the anti-apoptotic effect of BCL2 by disrupting the BAX-BCL2 complex. In neurons, has a NGF-induced proapoptotic effect, probably through regulating CASP3 activity. Also essential for hypoxic regulation of neutrophilic inflammation.

Product Notes
The PHD3 egln3 (Catalog #AAA389092) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PHD3, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
