Abstract Hypoxia‐inducible factors (HIFs) activate gene transcription in response to reduced O 2 availability and play critical roles in development, physiology, and disease pathogenesis. Mutations that dysregulate HIF activity are the genetic basis for tumor predisposition in the von Hippel–Lindau syndrome and excess red blood cell production in hereditary erythrocytosis.
