Kinetic and mechanistic studies of oxygen sensing Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenases

Abstract:

The Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenases are a widespread enzyme family, which are characterised by structurally similar active sites and proposed to employ a common reaction mechanism. The work described in this thesis concerned kinetic and biophysical studies on 2OG oxygenases, with a particular focus on the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor (HIF) hydroxylases and mechanistic aspects of their reaction with oxygen.

The four human HIF hydroxylases regulate cellular ...
