It is the chemical that gets into the body via smoke but then is converted by enzymes called aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylases into a more potent chemical that is the epoxide of BP.

PC, Oh J, Kelly B, Krishnamachary B, et al. (2005) OS-9 interacts with hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha and prolyl hydroxylases to promote oxygen-dependent degradation of HIF-1alpha.

-
HIF-1 activity depends on the inhibition of the post-transcriptional hydroxylation of the subunit α by prolyl hydroxylases

-
In mammals, three types of HIF prolyl-hydroxylases that have been identified: PHD1 (prolyl-hydroxylase domain), PHD2 and PHD3.
-
Deletion of the ODDD in the HIF-1α / Fluc fusion protein prevents hydroxylation by prolyl-hydroxylases and abrogates HIF-1α (ODDD) - pVHL interaction.
-
During hypoxia, however, inactivation of the prolyl-hydroxylases occurs, resulting in the stabilisation of HIF-α on account proteasomal degradation of the subunit being inhibited.
-
HIF-1α protein is constantly modified posttranslationally by prolyl hydroxylases at Pro402 and / or Pro564 within the oxygen-dependent degradation (ODD) domain which promotes binding with pVHL (von Hippel-Lindau protein) and subsequent targeting for rapid proteasomal degradation.
