Phosphoglucomutases (PGM) 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 is a major isozyme.Whitehouse et al. isolated a cDNA encoding human PGM1. Eighteen amino acid differences were found between human and rabbit PGM1. Southern blot analysis indicated that PGM1 is conserved among a wide variety of vertebrates ranging from primates to birds and amphibia. No evidence for PGM1-related sequences was found either by Southern blot analysis or by in situ hybridization.
