Abstract excerpt
D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) is a potent oncometabolite capable of disrupting chromatin architecture, altering metabolism, and promoting cellular dedifferentiation. As a result, ectopic D-2HG accumulation induces neurometabolic disorders and promotes progression of multiple cancers. However, the disease-associated effects of ectopic D-2HG accumulation are dependent on genetic context. Specifically, neomorphic...
