Abstract excerpt
Abstract Point mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) define distinct subsets of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). IDH is a metabolic enzyme that interconverts isocitrate and α-ketoglutarate (α-KG), but cancer-associated point mutations in IDH1 and IDH2 confer a neomorphic activity that allows reduction of α-KG to the oncometabolite R-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). High levels of 2-HG have been shown to inhibit α...
