Prolyl 4-hydroxylase catalyzes the hydroxylation of proline in -Xaa-Pro-Gly- triplets in collagens and other proteins with sequences similar to collagen. The enzyme is very important in the synthesis of all collagens, because the 4-hydroxyproline residues formed in the reaction are essential for the folding of the newly synthesized collagen polypeptide chains into triple helical molecules. The vertebrate enzyme is tetramer in which the subunits contribute to most parts of the two catalytic sites (Freedman, Hirst et al. 1994; Helaakoski, Annunen et al. 1995). The  subunit is identical to the enzyme protein disulfide-isomerase and has PDI activity even when present in the prolyl 4-hydroxylase tetramer (Kivirikko, Myllyla et al. 1989) (Koivu, Myllyla et al. 1987; Noiva and Lennarz 1992). The PDI polypeptide also has several other functions (Pihlajaniemi, Helaakoski et al. 1987; Parkkonen, Kivirikko et al. 1988).

Prolyl 4-hydroxylase had long been assumed to be of one type only, with no isoenzymes (Freedman, Hirst et al. 1994; Helaakoski, Annunen et al. 1995), but an isoform of the  subunit, termed the (II) subunit, has been cloned from mouse tissues (Prockop and Kivirikko 1995). Correspondingly, the previously known subunit is now called the (I) subunit. The (II) subunit was found to form an ((II))22 tetramer with the PDI/ subunit when the two polypeptides were coexpressed in insect cells. The properties of the new type II enzyme were found to be very similar to those of the type I tetramer, with the distinct difference that it was inhibited by poly(L-proline) only at very high concentrations (Prockop and Kivirikko 1995).

The proposed domain is found exclusively in Prolyl 4-hydrolase alpha related protein also called Procollagen-proline-2-oxoglutarate-4-dioxygenase alpha1 subunit.Furthermore, os always located at the N-ter of SMART :P4Hc and PFAM:2OG-FeII_Oxy (PF03171). The matched region Overlaps with the SSF :TPR-like.

No annotations have been added to the region matched by this profile.

The tetratrico peptide repeat (TPR) is a motif present in a wide range of proteins (Goebl and Yanagida 1991; Lamb, Tugendreich et al. 1995; Das, Cohen et al. 1998). It mediates protein–protein interactions and is involved in the assembly of multiprotein complexes (D'Andrea and Regan 2003). The TPR motif consists of 3–16 tandem-repeats of 34 amino acids residues, although individual TPR motifs can be dispersed in the protein sequence. TPR motifs have been identified in various different organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Proteins containing TPRs are involved in a variety of biological processes, such as cell cycle regulation, transcriptional control, mitochondrial and peroxisomal protein transport, neurogenesis and protein folding.

The 2OG-Fe(II) oxygenase superfamily contains members of the 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) and Fe(II)-dependent oxygenase superfamily (Annunen, Helaakoski et al. 1997). This family includes the C-terminal of prolyl 4-hydroxylase alpha subunit. The full enzyme consists of a alpha2 beta2 complex with the alpha subunit contributing most of the parts of the active site (Roach, Clifton et al. 1995). The family also includes lysyl hydrolases, isopenicillin synthases and AlkB.
