PGAM1 belongs to the phosphoglycerate mutase family. This protein is important components of glucose and 2,3-BPGA (2,3-bisphosphoglycerate) metabolism and catalyzes the reversible reaction of 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) to 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PGA) in the glycolytic pathway. The PGAM is a dimeric enzyme containing, in different tissues, different proportions of a slow-migrating muscle (MM) isozyme, a fast-migrating brain (BB) isozyme, and a hybrid form (MB). Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-254 from mouse PGAM1, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
