PII Protein-Derived FRET Sensors for Quantification and Live-Cell Imaging of 2-Oxoglutarate

Abstract The citric acid cycle intermediate 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG, a.k.a. alpha-ketoglutarate) links the carbon and nitrogen metabolic pathways and can provide information on the metabolic status of cells. In recent years, it has become exceedingly clear that 2-OG also acts as a master regulator of d...
