Abstract excerpt
Hexokinase 1 (HK1) catalyzes the first step of glycolysis by phosphorylating glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. Recently, de novo heterozygous missense variants in the N-terminal regulatory domain of HK1 have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders with visual defects and brain anomalies (NEDVIBA), likely through gain-of-function mechanisms causing excessive glucose phosphorylation. Tuberous sclerosis...
