DHHC9-mediated GLUT1 S-palmitoylation promotes glioblastoma glycolysis and tumorigenesis
The glucose transporter GLUT1 is upregulated in multiple cancers and may contribute to tumour progression, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, the authors show that DHHC9-mediated GLUT1 palmitoylation at Cys207 is crucial for plasma membrane localisation of GLUT1 and for tumou...

| Summary: | The glucose transporter GLUT1 is upregulated in multiple cancers and may contribute to tumour progression, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, the authors show that DHHC9-mediated GLUT1 palmitoylation at Cys207 is crucial for plasma membrane localisation of GLUT1 and for tumourigenesis in glioblastoma cells. |
