Acidification enhances lactate dehydrogenaseâ and malate dehydrogenaseâmediated promiscuous production of L-2-hydroxyglutarate (L-2HG) from α-ketoglutarate and stabilizes HIF-1α levels. The metabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) can be produced as either a D- R- or L- S- enantiomer, each of which inhibits α-ketoglutarate (αKG)-dependent enzymes involved in diverse biologic processes. Oncogenic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) produce D-2HG, which causes a pathologic blockade in cell differentiation. On the other hand, oxygen limitation leads to accumulation of L-2HG, which can facilitate physiologic adaptation to hypoxic stress in both normal and malignant cells. Here we demonstrate that purified lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) catalyze stereospecific production of L-2HG via 'promiscuous' reduction of the alternative substrate αKG. Acidic pH enhances production of L-2HG by promoting a protonated form of αKG that binds to a key residue in the substrate-binding pocket of LDHA. Acid-enhanced production of L-2HG leads to stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) in normoxia. These findings offer insights into mechanisms whereby microenvironmental factors influence production of metabolites that alter cell fate and function.
酸化作用增强乳酸脱氢酶和苹果酸脱氢酶介导的从α-酮戊二酸产生L-2-羟基戊二酸(L-2HG)的非特异性反应,并稳定HIF-1α水平。代谢物2-羟基戊二酸(2HG)可以作为D-R-或L-S-手性异构体产生,每种都能抑制涉及多种生物过程的α-酮戊二酸(αKG)依赖性酶。异柠檬酸脱氢酶(IDH)的致癌突变产生D-2HG,导致细胞分化的病理阻断。另一方面,氧气限制导致L-2HG积累,这可以促进正常细胞和恶性细胞对低氧应激的生理适应。在此,我们证明纯化的乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)和苹果酸脱氢酶(MDH)通过非特异性还原替代底物αKG,催化特异性产生L-2HG。酸性pH通过促进αKG的质子化形式,该形式结合到LDHA的底物结合口袋中的关键残基,从而增强L-2HG的产生。酸增强的L-2HG产生导致在常氧条件下稳定缺氧诱导因子1α(HIF-1α)。这些发现提供了关于微环境因素如何影响代谢物产生,从而改变细胞命运和功能的机制的见解。
