ANTI-PGM1 ANTIBODY PRODUCED IN RABBIT (C15-1746-901)

General description

Phosphoglucomutases (PGM; EC 5.4.2.2) catalyze the transfer of phosphate between the 1 and 6 positions of glucose. Isozymes of PGM are monomeric, with molecular masses of about 60 kD, and are encoded by several genes, including PGM1. In most cell types, PGM1 isozymes predominate, representing about 90% of total PGM activity. One exception is red cells, where PGM2 (MIM 172000) is a major isozyme (Putt et al., 1993 [PubMed 8257433]).[supplied by OMIM

Biochem/physiol Actions

PGM1 (phosphoglucomutase 1) plays a crucial role in glucose homeostasis and is responsible for regulating the switch between glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. It is mainly involved in the reversible conversion of glucose 1-phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. It also participates in protein N-glycosylation. Deficiency of PGM1 has been associated with metabolic disorders, such as hepatopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and exercise intolerance.
