BACKGROUND: There are four major glucose-phosphorylating isoenzymes, designated Hexokinase 1 I, II, III, and IV (1) . Hexokinase 1 activity is involved in the first step in several metabolic pathways including phosphorylation of glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, thus committing glucose to the glycolytic pathway (1, 2) . Hexokinase 1 2 is the predominant Hexokinase 1 isozyme expressed in insulin-responsive tissues such as skeletal muscle and its expression is insulin-responsive (3) . It is involved in the increased rate of glycolysis seen in rapidly growing cancer cells (4) .
