abstract：:Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations have been detected in gliomas and other tumors. Although IDH1 catalyzes the oxidative carboxylation of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) in cytosol, mutated IDH1 proteins possess the ability to change α-KG into the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG). Several mono...
