<i>In Silico</i> Analysis of Phosphomannomutase-2 Dimer Interface Stability and Heterodimerization with Phosphomannomutase-1. [PDF]
Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) catalyzes the interconversion of mannose-6-phosphate and mannose-1-phosphate, a key step in the biosynthesis of GDP-mannose for N-glycosylation. Its deficiency is the most common cause of congenital disorders of glycosylation (
