Aberrant promoter CpG methylation is a mechanism for impaired PHD3 expression in a diverse set of malignant cells.
The prolyl-hydroxylase domain family of enzymes (PHD1-3) plays an important role in the cellular response to hypoxia by negatively regulating HIF-α proteins. Disruption of this process can lead to up-regulation of factors that promote tumorigenesis. We observed decreased basal expression of PHD3 in...
