Deletion analysis of the human VEGF 5' flanking region -2018 and +50 demonstrated induction of VEGF promoter activity under hypoxic conditions which was significantly decreased following deletion of the region -1286 and -789 suggesting a substantial contribution of the -975 putative hypoxia inducible factor 1 binding site to hypoxia mediated transcriptional activation of the VEGF gene.
