2-Oxoglutarate and iron dependent oxygenases are therapeutic targets for human diseases. Using a representative 2OG oxygenase panel, we compare the inhibitory activities of 5-carboxy-8-hydroxyquinoline (IOX1) 4-carboxy-8-hydroxyquinoline (4C8HQ) with that two other commonly used inhibitors, N-oxalylglycine (NOG) 2,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (2,4-PDCA).

The oxidation and dealkylation of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), dimethylsulfide (DMS), trimethylamine (TMA) by cytochrome P450 has been studied with density functional theory calculations. results show that the reactions always occur on doublet spin surface, whereas dealkylations can take place for both quartet states. Moreover, DMS is more reactive than DMSO, S-oxidation favorable S-dealkylation, N-dealkylation N-oxidation. This in perfect agreement experimental results, showing activation...

Abstract Cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1) is an important target in the treatment of prostate cancer because it produces androgens required for tumour growth. The FDA has approved only one CYP17A1 inhibitor, abiraterone, which contains a steroidal scaffold similar to endogenous substrates. Abiraterone structurally substrates other cytochrome enzymes involved steroidogenesis, and interference can pose liability terms side effects. Using non-steroidal scaffolds expected enable design compounds...

Iron porphyrin complexes are cofactors in many important proteins such as cytochromes P450, hemoglobin, heme peroxidases, etc. Many computational studies on these systems have been done over the past decade. In this study, performance of some most commonly used density functional theory functionals is evaluated with regard to how they reproduce experimental structures. Seven different (BP86, PBE, PBE0, TPSS, TPSSH, B3LYP, and B97-D) study eight iron complexes. The results show that TPSS give...
