Molecular classification
Transcription Factors, Enzymes, Structural Proteins, Chaperones, RNAs
01

Overview

Hypoxic cell macromolecules encompass a broad array of adaptive molecular entities whose structure/function/expression is regulated directly or indirectly by cellular exposure to low oxygen environments. These include transcription factors (e.g., HIFs), glycolytic enzymes, carbonic anhydrases, chaperones, and RNAs. Their study provides insight into fundamental survival strategies across physiology/pathology—most notably within oncology where they underpin many hallmarks associated with aggressive tumor behavior.
