The results obtainedprovide evidence that, at least under the studiedconditions, the rate of reaction ofthe PHD2:Fe(II):2OG:HIF-a complex with oxygen is very much slowerthan forthe other ... in the presence of CODD.These observations are consistent with the known abil-ity of 2OG oxygenases to catalyze 2OG turnover in the absence of their prime substrate [18]; it is notablethat the...
