Sumoylation-deficient phosphoglycerate mutase 2 impairs myogenic differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 (PGAM2) is a critical glycolytic enzyme that is highly expressed in skeletal muscle. In humans, naturally occurring mutations in Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 have been etiologically linked to glycogen storage disease X (GSDX). Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 activity is regulated by several posttranslational modifications such as ubiquitination and acetylation. Here, we report that Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 activity is regulated by sumoylation-a covalent conjugation involved in a wide spectrum of cellular events. We found that Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 contains two primary SUMO acceptor sites, lysine (K)49 and K176, and that the mutation of either K to arginine (R) abolished Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 sumoylation. Given that K176 is more highly evolutionarily conserved acro
