Description

The PGM1 gene encodes phosphoglucomutase 1, a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of glucose-1-phosphate to glucose-6-phosphate, a critical step in glycogenolysis and glycoprotein synthesis. Mutations in PGM1 cause phosphoglucomutase 1 deficiency (PGM1-CDG), a congenital disorder of glycosylation characterized by hypoglycemia, hepatopathy, myopathy, and coagulopathy.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
PGM1-CDG (Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation type It) Loss-of-function mutations impair interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate, disrupting N-glycosylation and glycogen metabolism. ClinVar, OMIM
Glycogen Storage Disease type XIV Deficient PGM1 activity leads to glycogen accumulation in muscle and liver, causing exercise intolerance and hypoglycemia. OMIM, NCBI

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Most PGM1 mutations are loss-of-function, reducing or abolishing enzyme activity, leading to PGM1-CDG.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Pathways

Glycogen metabolism (Reactome: R-HSA-8982491)

Protein Summary

Phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) is a 62 kDa cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible transfer of a phosphate group between glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate. It plays a central role in glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, and the synthesis of UDP-glucose for glycoprotein and glycolipid glycosylation. Deficiency due to biallelic mutations leads to PGM1-CDG, a multisystem disorder.
