Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-2-Hydroxyglutaric acid
DescriptionL-2-Hydroxyglutaric acid is a metabolite that accumulates in L-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria (a neurometabolic disorder, OMIM 236792 ), and has been reported in multiple patients who have a clinical phenotype of progressive neurodegeneration with extrapyramidal and cerebellar signs, seizures, and spongiform changes in the white matter (OMIM 600721 ). L-2-hydroxyglutarate can be converted to ?-ketoglutaric acid through the action of L-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase (L2HGDH). L-2-Hydroxyglutaric acid is also considered to be an oncometabolite (or cancer-causing metabolite). It can be produced via gain-of-function mutations in the cytosolic and mitochondrial isoforms of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH). IDH is part of TCA cycle and this compound is generated in high abundance when IDH is mutated. L-2-hydroxyglutarate is sufficiently similar in structure to 2-oxogluratate (2OG) that it is able to inhibit a range of 2OG-dependent dioxygenases, including histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) and members of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) family of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) hydroxylases. This inhibitory effect leads to alterations in the hypoxia induced factor (HIF)-mediated hypoxic response and alterations in gene expression through global epigenetic remodeling. The net effect is that L-2-hydroxyglutarate causes a cascading effect that leads genetic perturbations and malignant transformation.
