IOX1

IOX1 has been used:

• To eliminate viral latency in latent viruses in order to sensitize the viral infections to antiviral therapy.
• In histone lysine demethylase 4A (KDM4A) inhibition, to serve as a unique strategy to decrease hypoxia-inducible factors signalling.
• to restore oncogene-induced senescence in wild-type mouse embryo fibroblasts.

Broad spectrum 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) oxygenase inhibitor.

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. For full characterization details, please visit the IOX1 probe summary on the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) website.
