Pygm muscle glycogen phosphorylase [ Mus musculus (house mouse) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 19309)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 19309)
Symbol: Pygm
Full name: muscle glycogen phosphorylase
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: PG
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]
