Oncometabolites D- and L-2-hydroxyglutarate Inhibit the AlkB Family DNA Repair Enzymes under Physiological Conditions

Cancer-associated mutations often lead to perturbed cellular energy metabolism and accumulation of potentially harmful oncometabolites. One example is the chiral molecule 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG); its two stereoisomers (d- and l-2HG) have been found at abnormally high concentrations in tumors featur...
