C/EBPβ-LIP dually activates glycolysis and the malate aspartate shuttle to maintain NADH/NAD+ homeostasis

Oncogene-induced metabolic reprograming supports cell growth and proliferation. Yet, it also links cancer cell survival to certain metabolic pathways and nutrients. In order to synthesise amino acids and nucleotides de novo for growth and proliferation, cancer cells depend on glycolysis, the cytoplasmic oxidation of glucose, which generates necessary metabolic intermediates and ATP. During…
