Kinetic Analysis of HIF Prolyl Hydroxylases

Methods Mol Biol. 2018:1742:15-25. doi: 10.1007/978-1-4939-7665-2_2.

Abstract

Kinetic analyses of HIF prolyl 4-hydroxylases (HIF-P4Hs) allow determination of substrate, cosubstrate and cofactor requirements, analysis of the reaction rate, and inhibitory properties of the isoenzymes in vitro. Here we describe an assay measuring the substrate hydroxylation-coupled decarboxylation of radioactive 2-oxoglutarate to radioactive carbon dioxide as a fast, efficient, and diverse method to analyze the enzyme kinetics of HIF-P4Hs.

Keywords: 2-oxoglutarate; HIF-P4H; Inhibitor; Kinetics; Substrate.
