Hexokinase II promotes the Warburg effect by phosphorylating alpha subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase
OBJECTIVE: Tumor cells rely heavily on glycolysis regardless of oxygen tension, a phenomenon called the Warburg effect. Hexokinase II (HKII) catalyzes the first irreversible step of glycolysis and is often overexpressed in tumor cells. Mitochondrial HKII couples glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylat...
