Facts about Egl nine homolog 2.
Has a preference for the CODD website for both HIF1A and HIF2A. Under hypoxic conditions, the hydroxylation reaction is attenuated allowing HIFs to escape degradation resulting in their translocation into the nucleus, heterodimerization with HIF1B, and increased expression of hypoxy-inducible genes.

Expressed in adult and fetal heart, brain, liver, lung, skeletal muscle, and kidney. Also expressed in testis and placenta. Highest levels in adult brain, placenta, lung, kidney, and testis. Expressed in hormone responsive tissues, including normal and cancerous mammary, ovarian and prostate epithelium.
