Integration and Visualization of Regulatory Elements and Variations of the <i>EPAS1</i> Gene in Human

Endothelial PAS domain-containing protein 1 (EPAS1), also HIF2α, is an alpha subunit of hypoxia-inducible transcription factor (HIF), which mediates cellular and systemic response to hypoxia. EPAS1 has an important role in the transcription of many hypoxia-responsive genes, however, it has been less...
