About EGLN2

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:40,799,191-40,808,434 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 61.2), spleen (RPKM 33.0) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

The hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) is a transcriptional complex that is involved in oxygen homeostasis. At normal oxygen levels, the alpha subunit of HIF is targeted for degration by prolyl hydroxylation. This gene encodes an Enzyme responsible for this post-translational modification. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the upstream RAB4B (RAB4B, member Ras oncogene family) gene.
