Description
IOX 1 (5852-78-8) inhibits the JMJD family of 2-oxoglutarate-dependent histone demethylases. IC50 = 0.12, 0.07, 0.2, 0.3, 0.6, and 1 μM for JMJD3, JMJD1A, JMJD2A, JMJD2E, JMJD2C and UTX respectively.1?A broad spectrum 2-oxoglutarate oxygenase inhibitor, IOX 1 may be used to study hypoxic signaling.1?Cell permeable
Uses
5-Carboxy-8-hydroxyquinoline is an inhibitor of KDM2/7 histone demethylase. 5-Carboxy-8-hydroxyquinoline has also shown potential to be used as a regulator of plant growth.
Definition
ChEBI:8-hydroxy-5-quinolinecarboxylic acid is a member of quinolines.
Biochem/physiol Actions
IOX1 (5-Carboxy-8-hydroxyquinoline) is a broad spectrum inhibitor of 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) oxygenases, including Jumonji C domain (JmjC) demethylases. It is useful for the study of histone demethylation and hypoxic sensing and results in translocation of active site iron on the 2OG oxygenases.
