Structural highlights
DiseasePGM1_HUMAN PGM-CDG;Glycogen storage disease due to phosphoglucomutase deficiency. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionPGM1_HUMAN This enzyme participates in both the breakdown and synthesis of glucose. Publication Abstract from PubMedHuman phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) plays a central role in cellular glucose homeostasis, catalyzing the conversion of glucose 1-phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. Recently, missense variants of this enzyme were identified as causing an inborn error of metabolism, PGM1 deficiency, with features of a glycogen storage disease and a congenital disorder of glycosylation. Previous studies of selected PGM1 variants have revealed various mechanisms for enzyme dysfunction, including regions of structural disorder and side-chain rearrangements within the active site. Here, we examine variants within a substrate-binding loop in domain 4 (D4) of PGM1 that cause extreme impairment of activity. Biochemical, structural, and computational studies demonstrate multiple detrimental impacts resulting from these variants, including loss of conserved ligand-binding interactions and reduced mobility of the D4 loop, due to perturbation of its conformational ensemble. These potentially synergistic effects make this conserved ligand-binding loop a hotspot for disease-related variants in PGM1 and related enzymes.
