Metabolic remodeling is a major determinant for many cell fate decisions, and a switch from respiration to aerobic glycolysis is generally considered as a hallmark of cancer cell transformation. Pyruvate is a key metabolite at the major junction of carbohydrate metabolism between cytosolic glycolysis and the mitochondrial Krebs cycle. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Bender et al show that yeast cells regulate pyruvate uptake into mitochondria, and thus its metabolic fate, by expressing alternative pyruvate carrier complexes with different activities.
