Abstract excerpt
Point mutations in human isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) can drive malignancies, including lower-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas, chondrosarcomas, and acute myeloid leukemias. These mutations, which usually affect residue R132, ablate the normal activity of catalyzing the NADP+-dependent oxidation of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate (αKG) while also acquiring a neomorphic activity of reducing αKG to...
