About Pygm

Summary

This gene encodes a glycolysis enzyme found in muscle. Highly similar Enzymes encoded by different genes are found in liver and brain. The encoded protein is involved in regulating the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate, which is necessary for ATP generation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
