“…PGAM5 is a member of the phosphoglycerate mutase family, but exhibits protein phosphatase activity toward Ser/Thr (Takeda et al , ) and His (Panda et al , ). Recent studies highlighted the importance of PGAM5 in a variety of cellular processes, including mitochondrial dynamics (Wilkins et al , ; Lavie et al , ; O'Mealey et al , ), mitophagy (Chen et al , ; Wu et al , ; Hawk et al , ), programmed cell death (Wang et al , ; Lin et al , ; Zhuang et al , ; Xu et al , ; He et al , ), the WNT/β‐catenin pathway (Rauschenberger et al , ; Bernkopf et al , ), immune responses (Kang et al , ; Moriwaki et al , ), and longevity (Borch Jensen et al , ). Several lines of evidence suggest the close relationship of PGAM5 with Parkinson's disease.…”
