2-Oxoglutarate derivatives can selectively enhance or inhibit the activity of human oxygenases

The human 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) oxygenases FIH and AspH are relevant drug targets. Here, the authors show that synthetic and naturally occurring 2OG derivatives can selectively modulate FIH and AspH activities, suggesting that these compounds may serve as a basis to develop 2OG oxygenase-targeting pr...
