| Term Name: | 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase activity |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase activity, oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen, 2-oxoglutarate as one donor, and incorporation of one atom each of oxygen into both donors |
| Definition: | Catalysis of the reaction: A + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = B + succinate + CO2. This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction in which hydrogen or electrons are transferred from 2-oxoglutarate and one other donor, and one atom of oxygen is incorporated into each donor. |
