HIF-2α Interaction with Ataxin-10 Enhances HIF-2α Binding to Its Target Gene Promoters.

ABSTRACT: The master transcription factors that control cell adaptation under hypoxia are known as hypoxia-inducible factors or HIFs. HIF-2α is the second isoform, which has been studied less extensively, and its expression is limited to particular cell types and is associated with increased malignancy in tumors. Herein, we investigate the interaction of HIF-2α with Ataxin-10, an intracellular protein involved in cell survival and differentiation, as well as the mechanism and the effects of this interaction in cervical cancer (HeLa) and glioma (U-87MG) cells. The interaction was investigated by LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis, immunoprecipitation, and immunoblotting. HIF-2 transcriptional activity was measured by luciferase assays and quantitative RT-PCR of target genes specific to HIF-2. The mechanism
