Acetylation Stabilizes Phosphoglycerate Dehydrogenase by Disrupting the Interaction of E3 Ligase RNF5 to Promote Breast Tumorigenesis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) is the first enzyme in the serine synthesis pathway in which it is also the rate-limiting enzyme. It is significantly upregulated in many cancers, especially breast cancer.

Splicing factor ESRP1 controls ER-positive breast cancer by altering metabolic pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The epithelial splicing regulatory proteins 1 and 2 (ESRP1 and ESRP2) control the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) splicing program in cancer. However, their role in breast cancer recurrence is unclear. In this study, we report that high levels

An epitope tag alters phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase structure and impairs ability to support cell proliferation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background The gene encoding the serine biosynthesis pathway enzyme PHGDH is located in a region of focal genomic copy number gain in human cancers. Cells with PHGDH amplification are dependent on enzyme expression for proliferation. However, dependence

Serine biosynthesis defect due to haploinsufficiency of PHGDH causes retinal disease [PDF]

open access: yesNature Metabolism, 2021
Macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) is a progressive, late-onset retinal degenerative disease linked to decreased serum levels of serine that elevate circulating levels of a toxic ceramide species, deoxysphingolipids (deoxySLs); however, causal genetic variants that reduce serine levels in patients have not been identified.

One-carbon metabolism in cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cells require one-carbon units for nucleotide synthesis, methylation and reductive metabolism, and these pathways support the high proliferative rate of cancer cells.

Targeting phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase in multiple myeloma

open access: yesExperimental Hematology & Oncology, 2021
Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of plasma cells in the bone marrow. To date, this disease is still incurable and novel therapeutic approaches are required.

Asparagine promotes cancer cell proliferation through use as an amino acid exchange factor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cellular amino acid uptake is critical for mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) activation and cell proliferation. However, the regulation of amino acid uptake is not well-understood.

Functional genomics reveals serine synthesis is essential in PHGDH-amplified breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cancer cells adapt their metabolic processes to drive macromolecular biosynthesis for rapid cell growth and proliferation[superscript 1, 2]. RNA interference (RNAi)-based loss-of-function screening has proven powerful for the identification of new and ...

PHGDH Is Upregulated at Translational Level and Implicated in Platin-Resistant in Ovarian Cancer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundPlatinum-based chemotherapy is the first line option for ovarian cancer. The development of resistance to such chemotherapy results in treatment failure, while the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.MethodsClinical samples were ...

Cancer metabolism: Addicted to serine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cancer cells are biosynthetic factories that gear multiple metabolic pathways toward cell growth and proliferation. Serine is the metabolite consumed third most by cancer cells, after glucose and glutamine, and is used as a building block for proteins ...
