| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the molecular machinery of gene expression during acute and prolonged phase of hypoxia by focusing on its nuclear position. We first picked up about 200 genes which is up-regulated during hypoxic response in a HIF- or CREB-dependent manner. Probes for these genes were synthesized and their nuclear positions were determined by HIPMap method. This analysis indicated that multiple genes which change expressions in hypoxia, also change their nuclear position. These results indicate that dynamic changes in the gene expression during hypoxia are also co-related with their nuclear positions.
