Gene: PGM1
Official Full Name: phosphoglucomutase 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of phosphoglucomutase (PGM) and belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family. There are several PGM isozymes, which are encoded by different genes and catalyze the transfer of phosphate between the 1 and 6 positions of glucose. In most cell types, this PGM isozyme is predominant, representing about 90% of total PGM activity. In red cells, PGM2 is a major isozyme. This gene is highly polymorphic. Mutations in this gene cause glycogen storage disease type 14. Alternativley spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

PGM1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a vital tool in genetic research and therapeutic development, specifically designed for the investigation of the phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) gene. This product features engineered cell lines with a precise knockout of the PGM1 gene, which encodes a critical enzyme involved in carbohydrate metabolism, particularly the interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate. By elucidating the functional consequences of PGM1 deficiency, researchers can explore its implications in various metabolic disorders, including glycogen storage diseases and certain genetic syndromes.
The key mechanism of these knockout cell lines lies in the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology, allowing for precise modifications of the cellular genome. The resulting PGM1-deficient lines provide an invaluable platform for studying the downstream effects of altered metabolic pathways, enabling researchers to observe cellular adaptations and investigate potential compensatory mechanisms that might be activated in response to the gene knockout.
From a scientific standpoint, PGM1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer profound applications in both basic research and clinical settings. These cell lines facilitate the study of cell metabolism, and drug response testing, as well as the validation of potential pharmacological targets related to glucose metabolism. The controlled environment of these knockout cells can help in understanding gene function and the pathophysiology of related diseases, making them essential for those working in genetics, biochemistry, and metabolic disease research.
