Gene Description

Phosphoglucomutase-1 (PGM1; EC 5.4.2.2) is the major human phosphoglucomutase, a cytosolic Mg2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible interconversion of alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate and alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate. Catalysis proceeds via an alpha-D-glucose 1,6-bisphosphate intermediate and a catalytic phosphoserine (Ser117), with the bound Mg2+ ion coordinated by Ser117 and three active-site aspartates. PGM1 sits at the junction of glycogen metabolism and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis. During glycogenolysis it converts the glucose-1-phosphate released by glycogen phosphorylase into glucose-6-phosphate for glycolysis (or, in liver after glucose-6-phosphatase, for blood glucose), and it runs in reverse to supply glucose-1-phosphate for glycogen synthesis. Its products also feed the nucleotide-sugar (UDP-glucose/UDP-galactose, Leloir), galactose, and pentose-phosphate pathways. The enzyme is a monomer of 562 residues belonging to the alpha-D-phosphohexomutase superfamily. Loss-of-function variants cause PGM1 deficiency (PGM1-CDG; congenital disorder of glycosylation type It / glycogen storage disease type XIV), a mixed glycogenosis and glycosylation disorder featuring cleft palate, hepatopathy, hypoglycemia, dilated cardiomyopathy, exercise intolerance, and abnormal transferrin glycosylation, and it is notably responsive to galactose supplementation.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: IntAct-curated protein-protein interaction (with TINF2, UniProtKB:Q9BSI4) captured by a genome-wide split-YFP fluorescence-complementation screen for telomere-signaling regulators.
Reason: Bare "protein binding" (GO:0005515) is uninformative about PGM1's molecular function. The interaction derives from a large-scale telomere-interactome screen that identified ~300 candidate binders and is not established as a functional partnership relevant to PGM1's enzymatic role; per curation policy this is marked as over-annotated rather than removed (it reflects a real IPI experiment).

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Mutant-phenotype evidence linking PGM1 to the Leloir/UDP-galactose route, based on the galactose-responsive metabolic rewiring seen in PGM1-CDG fibroblasts.
Reason: PGM1's products (glucose-1-P/glucose-6-P) connect to the nucleotide-sugar and galactose (Leloir) pathways, and galactose treatment replenishes galactose-1-P, UDP-glucose, and UDP-galactose in PGM1-CDG. This is a real, pathway-adjacent role but peripheral to PGM1's core glucose-phosphate interconversion function, so it is retained as non-core.

Summary: Mutant-phenotype evidence that PGM1 deficiency blocks muscle glycogenolysis, placing PGM1 within glycogen catabolism.
Reason: Well supported and biologically central; in glycogenolysis PGM1 converts the glucose-1-phosphate released by glycogen phosphorylase into glucose-6-phosphate. Severe PGM1 loss causes blocked muscle glycogenolysis mimicking McArdle disease, directly demonstrating this role.

    in Phosphoglucomutase 1 Deficiency.
  findings: []
  reference_review:
    relevance: HIGH
    correctness: VERIFIED
    review_notes: First WT and variant human PGM1 crystal structures; documents Mg2+
      coordination, phosphoserine (Ser117) catalytic mechanism, monomeric state, and
      reversible G1P/G6P interconversion. Full text available and verified.

  title: Impaired glycogen breakdown and synthesis in phosphoglucomutase 1 deficiency.
  findings: []
  reference_review:
    relevance: HIGH
    correctness: VERIFIED
    review_notes: Shows PGM1 deficiency blocks muscle glycogenolysis (McArdle-like
      second wind) and may limit glycogen synthesis; supports the glycogen
      catabolic-process role.

    review_notes: Defines PGM1 as the enzyme interconverting glucose-6-P and
      glucose-1-P; establishes galactose-responsive rewiring of nucleotide-sugar
      (UDP-glucose/UDP-galactose, Leloir) metabolism in PGM1-CDG.
