basic FUNCTION
  • energy patway
  • glycolytic efficiency, which is important for the survival of cancer cells, depends primarily on the preferential expression of PFKL over the PFKM and PFKP isoforms
  • is modified with OGT in cancer cells, and glycosylation is increased specifically under conditions associated with tumorigenesis and tumor growth
  • PFKL glycosylation contributes to cell proliferation and tumor growth
  • catalyses the committed step of the glycolytic pathway by converting fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate

    blocking PFKL glycosylation to enhance its activity and reset cellular metabolism toward normal cell growth could therefore provide a new strategy to combat cancer
