Supplementary information

PYGM also known as muscle glycogen phosphorylase or myophosphorylase is an enzyme with a molecular mass of around 97 kDa. This enzyme plays a mechanical role in glycogen metabolism by catalyzing the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate. PYGM is particularly expressed in skeletal muscles where it aids in mobilizing stored energy during periods of increased demand such as exercise.
Biological function summary

The function of PYGM is critical in energy homeostasis within muscle tissue. This enzyme forms part of the glycogen phosphorylase complex which facilitates rapid energy release by converting glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate. This release is important for maintaining adequate levels of glucose for muscle contraction during activity or stress. Its activity is modulated by various factors including allosteric changes and phosphorylation processes ensuring that glucose metabolism aligns with the cellular energy requirements.

Pathways

PYGM integrates mainly into the glycolytic pathway where it provides glucose-1-phosphate as a substrate for glycolysis enhancing ATP production. The enzyme also plays an important role in the glycogenolysis pathway orchestrating energy release from glycogen stores. PYGM functions in connection with related proteins such as glycogen debranching enzyme and phosphoglucomutase working in concert to maintain energy balance and inform the overall metabolic response during physical exertion.

Defects in PYGM relate to McArdle disease a metabolic muscle disorder characterized by exercise intolerance and myoglobinuria. Deficiencies in PYGM impair glycogen breakdown in muscles leading to reduced availability of glucose for energy and resulting in muscle fatigue and pain. This disorder often links with metabolic consequences affecting enzymes involved in glucose handling such as muscle adenylate kinase highlighting the interconnected nature of metabolic pathways and disease pathology.
