The glutamate/cystine xCT antiporter antagonizes glutamine metabolism and reduces nutrient flexibility

The factors that limit the nutrient flexibility of cells remain largely unknown. Here, the authors identify the glutamate/cysteine antiporter xCT in a genetic screen for glucose dependency and show it determines the ability of cells to survive under conditions of low glucose by limiting the utilizat...
