Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) catalyses the first and rate-limiting step of the pentose phosphate pathway (1).
The NADPH generated from this reaction is essential to protect cells from oxidative stress (1).
Recent studies have shown that p53 interacts with G6PD and inhibits its activity, therefore suppressing glucose consumption through the pentose phosphate pathway (2).
In cancer cells with p53 mutations, the increased glucose consumption is directed towards increased biosynthesis, which is critical for cancer cell proliferation (2).
