Cancer cells are metabolic opportunists, bending every pathway to fuel unchecked growth. Now UCLA scientists show that a single protein—Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 mRNA-Binding Protein 3 (IGF2BP3)—does double duty, rewiring leukemia metabolism and reshaping RNA regulation to keep malignant cells alive. In a study titled “IGF2BP3 redirects glycolytic flux to promote one-carbon metabolism and RNA methylation,” published in Cell Reports Medicine, the researchers identify IGF2BP3 as a “master switch” that alters sugar breakdown and boosts leukemia proliferation by driving RNA modifications.
