Bisphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM)

The protein contains 259 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 30005 Da.

 

Plays a major role in regulating hemoglobin oxygen affinity by controlling the levels of its allosteric effector 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG). Also exhibits mutase (EC 5.4.2.11) activity. (updated: March 28, 2018)

The reference OMIM entry for this protein is 222800

Bisphosphoglycerate mutase deficiency
Bisphosphoglyceromutase deficiency
Bpgm deficiency
Diphosphoglycerate mutase deficiency of erythrocyte
Dpgm deficiency

A number sign (#) is used with this entry because erythrocyte bisphosphoglycerate mutase deficiency can be caused by compound heterozygous mutation in the BPGM gene (613896), which encodes a multifunctional enzyme, on chromosome 7q31-q34.

CLINICAL FEATURES

Schroter (1965) described severe hemolytic anemia in an infant. Although the proband's blood could not be studied because of multiple transfusions, the erythrocytes of the consanguineous parents, the sister and the father's mother showed activity of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate mutase about half of normal. The family of Bowdler and Prankerd (1964) is puzzling in that father and son had hemolytic anemia for which splenectomy was performed. In father and son, Labie et al. (1970) found a decrease in DPGM by about 50%. An increase in oxygen affinity of hemoglobin was observed. Schroter (1965) observed heterozygotes in 3 generations including both parents of a homozygous child with hemolytic anemia. Rosa et al. (1978) described a French family in which a man and his 3 sisters had erythrocytosis and complete deficiency of bisphosphoglycerate mutase. As a consequence, the affinity of his red cells for oxygen was increased. Hemoglobin concentration was 19.0 g per dl. The morphology of his red cells was normal and there was no evidence of hemolysis. Low levels of red cell 2,3-DPG prompted assay of the enzyme. Scott and Wright (1982) found DPGM to be polymorphic in 4 Alaskan ethnic groups. Hemoglobin and hematocrit were elevated in all deficient persons. Thus, both hemolytic anemia and polycythemia have been observed with deficiency of DPGM. Galacteros et al. (1984) reported 2 families; in one, 3 sisters and a brother were homozygotes and all 3 offspring of 2 of them were heterozygotes with male-to-male transmission. Diphosphoglycerate phosphatase activity paralleled DPGM activity in all subjects.

MOLECULAR GENETICS

In a patient with complete deficiency of erythrocyte BPGM reported by Rosa et al. (1978), Rosa et al. (1989) identified a heterozygous missense mutation in the BPGM gene (613896.0001). Lemarchandel et al. (1992) studied further the family originally reported by Rosa et al. (1978). They found that the affected individuals were, in fact, compound heterozygous for the R89C mutation and a deletion of nucleotide 205C or 206C (amino acid 19) (613896.0002). ...
