Cell Dev. Biol."],"abstract":"<jats:p>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\u2014a 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 across paralogs and orthologs than K49 is, we used the CRISPR-mediated homologous recombination technique in myogenic C2C12 cells to generate homozygous K176R knock-in cells (PGAM2<jats:sup>K176R\/K176R<\/jats:sup>). Compared with wild-type (WT) C2C12 cells, PGAM2<jats:sup>K176R\/K176R<\/jats:sup> C2C12 cells exhibited impaired myogenic differentiation, as indicated by decreased differentiation and fusion indexes. Furthermore, the results of glycolytic and mitochondrial stress assays with the XF96 Extracellular Flux analyzer revealed a reduced proton efflux rate (PER), glycolytic PER (glycoPER), extracellular acidification rate (ECAR), and oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in PGAM2<jats:sup>K176R\/K176R<\/jats:sup> C2C12 cells, both at baseline and in response to stress. Impaired mitochondrial function was also observed in PGAM2<jats:sup>K176R\/K176R<\/jats:sup> P19 cells, a carcinoma cell line. These findings indicate that the PGAM2-K176R mutation impaired glycolysis and mitochondrial function. Gene ontology term analysis of RNA sequencing data further revealed that several downregulated genes in PGAM2<jats:sup>K176R\/K176R<\/jats:sup> C2C12 cells were associated with muscle differentiation\/development\/contraction programs. Finally, PGAM2 with either of two naturally occurring missense mutations linked to GSDX, E89A (conversion of glutamic acid 89 to alanine) or R90W (conversion of arginine 90 to tryptophan), exhibited reduced Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 sumoylation. Thus, sumoylation is an important mechanism that mediates Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 activity and is potentially implicated in Phosphoglycerate mutase 2 mutation-linked disease in humans.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcell.2022.1052363","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,14]],"date-time":"2022-12-14T09:01:46Z","timestamp":1671008506000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Sumoylation-deficient phosphoglycerate mutase 2 impairs myogenic differentiation"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Yi","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ilimbek","family":"Beketaev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yanlin","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"110","DOI":"10.2174\/157339908784220723","article-title":"Candidate genes implicated in type 1 diabetes susceptibility","volume":"4","author":"Aribi","year":"2008","journal-title":"Curr.
