PGM activity is essential in formation of carbohydrates from glucose-6-phosphate and in formation of glucose-6-phosphate from galactose and glycogen (Edwards et al., 1995 [PubMed 8586438]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008] Expression Broad expression in prostate (RPKM 50.4), esophagus (RPKM 35.1) and 15 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
