Gene: L2HGDH
Official Full Name: L-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenaseprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes L-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase, a FAD-dependent enzyme that oxidizes L-2-hydroxyglutarate to alpha-ketoglutarate in a variety of mammalian tissues. Mutations in this gene cause L-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria, a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder resulting in moderate to severe cognitive disability. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

L2HGDH Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular models that lack the expression of the L2HGDH gene, which encodes for the enzyme L-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase. This enzymatic pathway is integral to the metabolism of L-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), a key oncometabolite implicated in various malignancies, particularly in certain brain tumors and leukemias. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers can effectively investigate the cellular and molecular consequences arising from 2-HG accumulation, thus deepening our understanding of its role in tumorigenesis and metabolic dysregulation.
The key function of L2HGDH Gene Knockout Cell Lines is to serve as a platform for elucidating the metabolic pathways that are influenced by L-2-hydroxyglutarate. Without the L2HGDH enzyme, these cell lines provide a valuable means to study alterations in cell signaling, proliferation, and apoptosis that may result from aberrant 2-HG levels. This serves as a powerful tool for both basic research and drug discovery, facilitating the identification of therapeutic targets aimed at mitigating the effects of 2-HG.
The scientific importance of these cell lines is underscored by their applicability in both research and clinical settings. They can not only advance our fundamental understanding of metabolic diseases but also aid in the development of targeted therapies for cancers associated with L2HGDH deficiency. Researchers and clinicians can leverage insights gained from these cell lines to explore therapeutic interventions that could inhibit 2-HG production or its downstream effects, thereby fostering innovative treatment strategies.
Compared to alternative models, L2HGDH Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer distinct advantages, including precise gene editing, reproducibility, and the ability to mimic a pathological state directly linked to human disease. This specificity elevates the reliability of experimental outcomes and predictive efficacy in translational research.
For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of L2HGDH Gene Knockout Cell Lines is clear: they offer a scaffold for probing the intricacies of cancer metabolism while potentially unveiling novel therapeutic avenues.
