T cell Activation Is Driven by an ADP-Dependent Glucokinase Linking Enhanced Glycolysis with Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species Generation

Mitochondria-originating reactive oxygen species (ROS) control T cell receptor (TCR)-induced gene expression. Here, we show that TCR-triggered activation of ADP-dependent glucokinase (ADPGK), an alternative, glycolytic enzyme typical for Archaea, mediates generation of the oxidative signal. We also...
