“…In hypoxia, PHD activity is reduced due to the lack of available oxygen resulting in stabilization and formation of the active HIF heterodimer. A second level of hydroxylationdependent regulation of HIF is mediated by the asparagine hydroxylase termed factor inhibiting HIF (FIH) which prevents HIF's interaction with the transcriptional co-activator p300/CBP [10][11][12]. The adaptive programmes activated by HIF include the metabolic switch from the oxygen-dependent oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis, increased angiogenesis and erythropoiesis.…”

“…In the absence of this modification, HIF-␣ interacts with the CH1 pocket of CBP/P300, which results in transactivation of target genes (21,22). However, in the presence of oxygen, the enzyme FIH-1 (for factor-inhibiting HIF) adds an oxygen to the ␤ carbon of Asn803 of HIF-1␣, or the equivalent residue in HIF-2␣ (23)(24)(25). This modification is highly unfavorable to the interaction with CBP/P300 and thus prevents HIF-␣ from recruiting the basal transcription machinery when cells are oxygenated.…”

“…The HIF-1α CAD interacts with the transcriptional adapter zinc finger (TAZ1) domain of CBP/p300 in hypoxia, resulting in transcription of oxygen stress genes. Under normoxic conditions, the factor inhibiting HIF-1 (FIH), an asparaginyl hydroxylase, catalyzes hydroxylation of HIF-1α at the β-carbon of Asn-803 [5]. Hydroxylation of this specific asparagine residue in HIF-1α impairs the interaction with CBP/p300.…”

SynopsisPost-translational modification plays crucial roles in signal transduction in eukaryotic cells. To elucidate the biological function of a protein with a specific post-translational modification, it is necessary to isolate the modified protein. However, it is difficult to incorporate a modified amino acid into a specific position of a protein, in particular, in a large-scale preparation. In order to prepare post-translationally modified proteins in Escherichia coli (E. coli), we have constructed coexpression vectors that contain protein and corresponding enzyme genes. The protein and enzyme are co-expressed in the same E. coli cells and the protein is post-translationally modified in vivo. By using this system, the transcriptional activator cyclic-AMP-response-element-binding protein (CREB) was phosphorylated at Ser-133 and the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) was hydroxylated at Asn-803 in E. coli. Although the constructs of the proteins we used are very flexible and susceptible to degradation by proteases in E. coli when they are expressed alone, the B1 domain of streptococcal protein G (GB1) fused to the N-terminus of the proteins increased the yields dramatically. Site-specific phosphorylation of CREB and hydroxylation of HIF-1α were confirmed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) and NMR. Our GB1-fusion co-expression system can be used in the same way as conventional protein expression in E. coli, making it a flexible and economical method to produce a large amount of a post-translationally modified protein.

Post-translational modification extends the range of function of the proteins by attaching other biochemical functional groups such as phosphate, hydroxyl group, acetate, lipids, or carbohydrates, causing changes in intrinsic activities of the proteins such as activation, inactivation or change in other properties such as conformational change.
