Metformin Is a Pyridoxal-5′-phosphate (PLP)-Competitive Inhibitor of SHMT2
SIMPLE SUMMARY: The mitochondrial enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT2), which converts serine into glycine and generates 1C units for cell growth, is one of the most consistently overexpressed metabolic enzymes in cancer. Here, we reveal that the anti-diabetic biguanide metformin operates...
