The glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM) is a dimer, and mature human skeletal muscle contains almost exclusively the MM form of the enzyme, PGAM-M. In 1981, we identified a patient with PGAM-M deficiency, and three additional patients have since been described. All presented with exercise intolerance, cramps, and myoglobinuria.
