The PTEN tumor suppressor is frequently mutated or deleted in cancer and regulates glucose metabolism through the PI3K-AKT pathway. However, whether PTEN directly regulates glycolysis in tumor cells is unclear. We demonstrate here that PTEN directly interacts with phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1). PGK1 functions not only as a glycolytic enzyme but also as a protein kinase intermolecularly autophosphorylating itself at Y324 for activation. The protein phosphatase activity of PTEN dephosphorylates and inhibits autophosphorylated PGK1, thereby inhibiting glycolysis, ATP production, and brain tumor cell proliferation. In addition, knockin expression of a PGK1 Y324F mutant inhibits brain tumor formation. Analyses of human glioblastoma specimens reveals that PGK1 Y324 phosphorylation levels inversely correlate with PTEN expression status and are positively associated with poor prognosis in glioblastoma patients. This work highlights the instrumental role of PGK1 autophosphorylation in its activation and PTEN protein phosphatase activity in governing glycolysis and tumorigenesis.

View all literature mentionsSoftware package of molecular simulation programs. It is distributed into AmberTools15 and Amber14. AmberTools15 is a software package which can carry out complete molecular dynamics simulations with either explicit water or generalized Born solvent models. It is distributed in source code format and must be compiled in order to be used. Amber14 builds on AmberTools15 by adding the pmemd program, which provides better performance on multiple CPUs and dramatic speed improvements on GPUs compared to sander (molecular dynamics). GPU info, manuals, and tutorials are available on the website.
