NCIt definition : Egl nine homolog 2 (407 aa, 44 kDa) is encoded by the human EGLN2 gene. This protein
is involved in the hydroxylation of hypoxia-inducible factor alpha proteins.;
NCIt note : Egl nine homolog 2 activity may be associated with chemotherapy resistance in colorectal
carcinoma. (EMBO Molecular Medicine. 2015; 7:1350-1365.);
