c-Src phosphorylation and activation of hexokinase promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis

c-Src phosphorylation and activation of hexokinase promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis

The protein tyrosine kinase c-Src is a renowned proto-oncogene with pleiotropic effects. Here, the authors show that c-Src induces the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells by phosphorylating hexokinases HK1 and HK2, which in turns lead to increased HK catalytic activity and consequent enhancement...
