Abstract
Mammalian oxygen homeostasis is dependent on the HIF family of transcription factors. The CSN subunit, CSN5, binds both the CODD of HIF-1α and the pVHL tumor suppressor. High CSN5 expression generates a pVHL-independent form of CSN5 that stabilizes HIF-1α aerobically by inhibiting HIF-1α prolyl-564 hydroxylation. Aerobic CSN5 association with HIF-1α occurs independently of the CSN holocomplex, leading to HIF-1α stabilization independent of Cullin 2 deneddylation. CSN5 weakly associates with HIF-1α under hypoxia, but is required for optimal hypoxia-mediated HIF-1α stabilization. These results indicate that CSN5 regulates aerobic as well as hypoxic HIF-1α stability by different mechanisms during oncogenesis.
