The metabolic reaction catalysed by the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) enzyme is commonly perturbed in some glioma subtypes due to gain-of-function mutations in the IDH1 gene. Here, Chaumeil et al.present a method that detects mutant IDH1 activity by measuring the levels of different hyperpolarized metabolites produced by wild-type and mutant IDH1.
