Pgm2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable phosphoglucomutase activity and phosphopentomutase activity. Predicted to be involved in glycogen biosynthetic process; glycogen catabolic process; and purine ribonucleoside salvage. Predicted to act upstream of or within glucose metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Orthologous to human PGM2 (phosphoglucomutase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Pgm2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
