Signaling pathways interconnecting V-ATPase and glycolysis. V-ATPase assembly, activity, and cellular membrane distribution reflect glucose and energy levels within the cell. PKA, AMPK, and PI3K are the common glucose-sensitive signaling pathways that regulate assembly (i, ii) and trafficking (iii) of V-ATPase in fungi and mammals. Reciprocal regulation of glycolysis by V-ATPase (iv) appears to be unique to mammals and is modulated by alterations in HIF-1. V-ATPase is also crucial for metabolic reprogramming (v); this entails assembly of V-ATPase, aldolase, mTORC1, and AMPK into evolutionarily-conserved super-complexes.
