摘要
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-l alpha and -2 alpha are two basic helix-loop-helix/PAS domain transcriptional factors that mediate hypoxia-induced gene expression. We found that bovine arterial endothelial cells (BAEC) expressed both HIF-1 alpha and -2 alpha by RT-PCR and then isolated cDNAs encoding these two transcriptional factors of BAEC. The deduced amino acid sequences of both HIF-1 alpha and -2 alpha showed high homologies among mammalian species. Northern blot analysis indicated that the mRNAs for HIF-1 alpha and -2 alpha from BAEC showed a size of approx. 5.5 and 6.2 kilobases, respectively and that both mRNAs were constitutively expressed and not induced by hypoxia in BAEC.
