Abstract
Covering: up to 2024Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (Fe/2OG DOs) are a superfamily of enzymes that play important roles in a variety of catalytic reactions, including hydroxylation, ring formation, ring reconstruction, desaturation, and demethylation. Each member of this family has similarities in their overall structure, but they have varying specific differences, making Fe/2OG DOs attractive for catalytic diversity. With the advancement of current research, more Fe/2OG DOs have been discovered, and their catalytic scope has been further broadened; however, apart from hydroxylation, many reaction mechanisms have not been accurately demonstrated, and there is a lack of a systematic understanding of their molecular basis. Recently, an increasing number of X-ray structures of Fe/2OG DOs have provided new insights into the structural basis of their function and substrate-binding properties. This structural information is essential for understanding catalytic mechanisms and mining potential catalytic reactions. In this review, we summarize most of the Fe/2OG DOs whose structures have been resolved in recent years, focus on their structural features, and explore the relationships between various structural elements and unique catalytic mechanisms and their associated reaction type classification.
