PGAM2 is the muscle-specific phosphoglycerate mutase isoform (PGAM-M), distinct from the brain-predominant PGAM1, consistent with the UniProt identity for P16290 and the muscle/heart bias of Pgam2 expression.
"Mammals express at least two major PGAM isoforms: **PGAM1 (Pgam1; often described as brain-predominant)** and **PGAM2 (Pgam2; muscle-specific)**"
-
PGAM2 catalyzes the reversible interconversion of 3-phosphoglycerate and 2-phosphoglycerate in lower glycolysis, supporting the phosphoglycerate mutase activity and glycolysis annotations.
"PGAM2 is a **glycolytic enzyme** that catalyzes the **reversible isomerization of 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PG) to 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG)** in the “lower” portion of glycolysis"
-
The PGAM-family catalytic mechanism is a 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate-dependent phospho-histidine cycle, consistent with the BPG-dependent PGAM subfamily assignment and bisphosphoglycerate mutase activity.
"The canonical PGAM-family mechanism proceeds via a **phospho-histidine catalytic cycle**, commonly summarized as involving an **active-site histidine (often referred to as His11)** and a **2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG/2,3-DPG)**-dependent priming/turnover mechanism"
-
PGAM2 is a cytosolic enzyme; no evidence supports stable non-cytosolic localization, with the dominant functional context being intracellular carbohydrate metabolism.
"Within the provided evidence set, PGAM2 is described as a **cytosolic** enzyme in an isoform table summary"
-
No support for stable extracellular or organellar localization of mammalian PGAM2; the dominant context is intracellular carbohydrate metabolism (argues against the ooplasm over-annotation).
"No evidence in the retrieved texts supports stable extracellular localization for mammalian PGAM2, and the dominant functional context is **intracellular carbohydrate metabolism**"
-
PGAM2 is expressed mainly in skeletal muscle and heart, the basis for its muscle-context annotations (e.g. striated muscle contraction kept as non-core/over-annotation rather than core MF).
"PGAM2 is described as expressed mainly in **skeletal muscle and heart**"
-
PGAM2 activity is regulated by SUMOylation at K49 and K176, which is functionally tied to myogenic differentiation (regulatory context, not a core catalytic annotation).
"PGAM2 is reported to undergo **SUMOylation**, with two primary SUMO acceptor lysines **K49 and K176**; mutating either lysine prevents SUMOylation"
-
PGAM2 catalytic activity is gated by reversible acetylation at K100, with SIRT2-mediated deacetylation activating the enzyme under oxidative stress (regulatory context).
"PGAM2 activity is strongly regulated by lysine acetylation at **K100**: acetylation at K100 inhibits PGAM2 activity, whereas deacetylation activates it"
-
Inherited human PGAM2 (PGAM-M) deficiency causes glycogen storage disease type X with exercise intolerance and cramps, underscoring its essential role in high-flux muscle glycolysis.
"Heart-focused work cites that **human PGAM deficiency** causes **glycogen storage disease type X**, characterized by **exercise intolerance and cramps**, consistent with an essential role for PGAM2 in high-flux muscle glycolysis"
