PRMT5 promotes ovarian cancer growth through enhancing Warburg effect by methylating ENO1 by Fei Xie, Han Zhang, Kongkai Zhu, Cheng‐Shi Jiang, Xiaoya Zhang, Hongkai Chang, Yaya Qiao, Mingming Sun, Jiyan Wang, Mukuo Wang, Junzhen Tan, Tao Wang, Lianmei Zhao, Yuan Zhang, Jianping Lin, Chunze Zhang, Shuangping Liu, Jianguo Zhao, Cheng Luo, Shuai Zhang, Changliang Shan

“…Knockdown or pharmaceutical inhibition of PRMT5 is sufficient to decrease glycolysis flux, attenuate tumor growth, and enhance the antitumor effect of Taxol. Mechanistically, we find that PRMT5 symmetrically dimethylates alpha‐enolase (ENO1) at arginine 9 to promotes active ENO1 dimer formation, which increases glycolysis flux and accelerates tumor growth. …”
