Protein: Hypoxia-inducible factor 3-alpha (HIF-3-alpha) (HIF3-alpha) (HIF3-alpha-1) (Q9JHS2)
Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Function: Acts as a transcriptional regulator in adaptive response to low oxygen tension. Attenuates the ability of transcription factor HIF1A, EPAS1 and the HIF1A-ARNT complex to bind to hypoxia-responsive elements (HRE) located within the enhancer/promoter of hypoxia-inducible target genes and hence inhibits HRE-driven transcriptional activation. Functions as an inhibitor of angiogenesis in hypoxic cells of the cornea. Plays a role in the development of the cardiorespiratory system. May also be involved in apoptosis. May act as a tumor suppressor.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11237857}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11237857}. Nucleus speckle {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VBL6}. Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VBL6}. Note=In the nuclei of all periportal and perivenous hepatocytes. In the distal perivenous zone, detected in the cytoplasm of the hepatocytes (PubMed:11237857). Localized in the cytoplasm and nuclei under normoxia, but increased in the nucleus under hypoxic conditions. Colocalized with HIF1A in kidney tumors. Colocalizes with BAD in the cytoplasm. Colocalizes with EPAS1 and HIF1A in the nucleus and speckles. Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in a CRM1-dependent manner. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VBL6, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9Y2N7}.
