| Targets |
N-Oxalylglycine targets 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG)-dependent dioxygenases, a large family of enzymes that require 2-OG, iron, and oxygen as cofactors. Key targets include prolyl hydroxylases (PHD1, PHD2, PHD3) that regulate hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) stability, and histone demethylases (e.g., JmjC domain-containing enzymes) that regulate gene expression. By inhibiting these enzymes, NOG stabilizes HIF-α subunits, activates hypoxic responses, and alters histone methylation patterns.

| ln Vitro |
N-Oxalylglycine inhibits 2-OG-dependent dioxygenases including prolyl hydroxylases and histone demethylases. It stabilizes HIF-1α and HIF-2α under normoxic conditions by inhibiting PHD activity. The compound also inhibits JmjC domain-containing histone demethylases, leading to increased histone methylation. NOG has been shown to induce hypoxic responses in various cell types. The compound's inhibitory activity is competitive with 2-OG.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, N-oxalylglycine has been used to study the role of 2-OG-dependent dioxygenases in various physiological and pathological processes. By inhibiting PHDs, NOG stabilizes HIF and activates hypoxic responses, which may have effects on angiogenesis, metabolism, and inflammation. The compound has been used in animal models to study the role of HIF in cancer, ischemia, and other conditions. However, its broad-spectrum activity limits its specificity for individual targets.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
2-OG-dependent dioxygenase activity assays are performed using recombinant enzymes and appropriate substrates. For PHD assays, the enzyme is incubated with HIF-α peptide substrate, 2-OG, iron, and ascorbate. Hydroxylation of the substrate is measured by mass spectrometry or using antibody-based detection. N-Oxalylglycine is added at varying concentrations, and inhibition is measured. IC50 values are calculated from concentration-response curves. Histone demethylase assays are performed using similar principles with histone peptide substrates.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for N-oxalylglycine employ various cell lines. Cells are treated with NOG (typically 0.1-1 mM) for 4-24 hours. HIF-1α and HIF-2α protein levels are assessed by Western blot. HIF target gene expression (e.g., VEGF, EPO, GLUT1) is analyzed by qPCR. Histone methylation levels (H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K27me3) are assessed by Western blot. Cell viability and proliferation are assessed using standard assays. The compound's effects on collagen synthesis can be assessed by measuring hydroxyproline levels.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with N-oxalylglycine are typically performed in mouse models. The compound is administered via intraperitoneal or subcutaneous injection at various doses (typically 10-100 mg/kg). HIF stabilization is confirmed by measuring HIF-α protein levels in tissues. HIF target gene expression is analyzed by qPCR. The compound's effects on tumor growth, angiogenesis, or ischemia are assessed in appropriate models. However, NOG's broad-spectrum activity and rapid metabolism may limit its utility for in vivo studies.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
N-Oxalylglycine has molecular formula C4H5NO5 and molecular weight 147.09. It has CAS number 5262-39-5. The compound is soluble in water and DMSO. It should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability. N-Oxalylglycine is a research-use only compound for studying 2-OG-dependent dioxygenases. It is also known as N-oxalylglycine and NOG.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for N-oxalylglycine are limited as it is a research compound. As an inhibitor of 2-OG-dependent dioxygenases, it may have broad effects on cellular metabolism, hypoxia responses, and epigenetics. The compound should be handled with appropriate laboratory safety precautions. In cell culture, NOG is typically used at concentrations up to 1 mM, which are generally well-tolerated in short-term experiments.

| Additional Infomation |
N-Oxaloylglycine is an aminodicarboxylic acid, specifically an iminodiacetic acid with an oxygen-substituted group. It functions as an inhibitor of α-ketoglutarate-dependent enzymes (EC 1.14.11.). It acts as an inhibitor of EC 1.14.11. (an oxidoreductase that acts on paired donors, where 2-ketoglutarate is one of the donors, and each donor introduces an oxygen atom). It is both an aminodicarboxylic acid and an N-acylglycine.
N-Oxalylglycine (NOG) is a competitive inhibitor of 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG)-dependent dioxygenases, including prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs) and histone demethylases. It is a structural analog of 2-oxoglutarate and acts as a broad-spectrum inhibitor. NOG is commonly used as a tool compound to study hypoxia signaling (HIF pathway), epigenetics (histone methylation), and collagen synthesis. The compound stabilizes HIF-α under normoxic conditions and alters histone methylation patterns. |
