Biological function summary
PGM2 functions to maintain cellular energy balance by supporting glycogen storage and breakdown. It operates as an individual enzyme not being part of any multi-enzyme complex but it significantly impacts glucose flux within cells. The enzyme plays a role in both anabolic and catabolic processes highlighting its importance in energy homeostasis. Adequate functioning of PGM2 ensures that cells have access to glucose during fasting or between meals vital for processes like muscle contraction and brain function.
Pathways
PGM2 is actively involved in the glycogen metabolism pathway and interacts with key enzymes like glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen synthase. Its enzymatic activity links it to pathways such as glycolysis where glucose-6-phosphate serves as a substrate. Through its role in glucose conversion PGM2 influences the availability of substrate for additional enzymes in glycolysis and glycogenesis impacting energy production and storage in cells.

General info
Function
Catalyzes the conversion of the nucleoside breakdown products ribose-1-phosphate and deoxyribose-1-phosphate to the corresponding 5-phosphopentoses (PubMed : 17804405). Catalyzes the reversible isomerization of alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate to alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate but with a lower catalytic efficiency (PubMed : 17804405). The mechanism proceeds via the intermediate compound alpha-D-glucose 1,6-bisphosphate (PubMed : 17804405). In vitro, has also a low glucose 1,6-bisphosphate synthase activity which is most probably not physiologically relevant (PubMed : 17804405, PubMed : 18927083).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family.
