Multicellular organisms initiate adaptive responses when oxygen (02) availability decreases, but the underlying mechanism Of 02 sensing remains elusive. We find that functionality of complex III of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) is required for the hypoxic stabilization of HIF-1 alpha and HIF-2 alpha. and that an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) links this complex to HIF-alpha. stabilization. Using RNAi to suppress expression of the Rieske iron-sulfur protein of complex III, hypoxia-induced HIF-1 alpha stabilization is attenuated, and ROS production, measured using a novel ROS-sensitive FRET probe, is decreased. These results demonstrate that mitochondria function as O-2 sensors and signal hypoxic HIF-1 alpha and HIF-2 alpha stabilization by releasing ROS to the cytosol.
