IDH mutation impairs histone demethylation and results in a block to cell differentiation

TL;DR: It is reported that 2HG-producing IDH mutants can prevent the histone demethylation that is required for lineage-specific progenitor cells to differentiate into terminally differentiated cells, and that inhibition of histone methylation can be sufficient to block the differentiation of non-transformed cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

IDH1 mutation is sufficient to establish the glioma hypermethylator phenotype

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mutation of a single gene, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1), establishes CIMP by remodelling the methylome, and the epigenomic alterations resulting from mutant IDH1 activate key gene expression programs, characterize G-CIMP-positive proneural glioblastomas but not other gliOBlastomas, and are predictive of improved survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic Regulation of Epigenetics

TL;DR: Recent progress in understanding the molecular connection between metabolism and epigenetic modifications of chromatin implicated in a variety of diseases including cancer is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia Induces Production of L-2-Hydroxyglutarate

TL;DR: It is reported that under conditions of oxygen limitation, mammalian cells selectively produce L-2HG via enzymatic reduction of α-KG through promiscuous substrate usage primarily by lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA).
