TAp73-induced phosphofructokinase-1 transcription promotes the Warburg effect and enhances cell proliferation

TAp73 is a structural homolog of the tumor suppressor p53. Here they show that TAp73 is critical for promoting glycolysis as it stimulates the transcriptional expression of liver type of phosphofructokinase-1 (PFKL), which catalyzes the committed step in glycolysis.
