The interesting aspect of the EGL-9 family is its presence in
The conservation of all the residues implicated in catalysis in the biochemically uncharacterized proteins such as AlkB, EGL-9, leprecan and YbiX suggests they all catalyze oxidative reactions similar to those catalyzed by IPNS, DAOCS, CAS and related enzymes such as protein lysyl/prolyl hydroxylases, EFE and leucoanthocyanidin oxidases [ 1, 2].
The vertebrate homolog of EGL-9 is specifically expressed in smooth muscles and is likely to have a role in their function [ 27].
At its carboxyl terminus, EGL-9 contains a MYND finger domain that is probably involved in specific protein-protein interactions [ 28].
This relationship, along with the combination to the intracellular MYND domain and the lack of signal peptides, suggests that the Egl-9 family proteins are prolyl hydroxylases that modify intracellular proteins, unlike the classic prolyl hydroxylases that have been implicated primarily in the modification of collagens in the endoplasmic lumen.
