<h4>Background</h4>Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) plays a key role in cellular adaptation to hypoxia. To better understand the determinants of HIF-1 binding and transactivation, we used ChIP-chip and gene expression profiling to define the relationship between the epigenetic landscape, sites of HIF-1 binding, and genes transactivated by hypoxia in two cell lines.<h4>Results</h4>We found that when cells were acutely subjected to hypoxia, HIF-1 preferentially bound to loci that were already tr ...[more]
