PKM2 dephosphorylation by Cdc25A promotes the Warburg effect and tumorigenesis

Protein phosphatase Cdc25 controls cell cycle transitions by dephosphorylating CDK substrates. Here, the authors show that the Cdc25A isoform regulates glycolysis through dephosphorylation of pyruvate kinase PKM2, resulting in β-catenin activation and consequent upregulation of the transcription of...
