Sugar-terminal-phosphatase

Sugar-terminal-phosphatase

In enzymology, a sugar-terminal-phosphatase (EC number|3.1.3.58) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:D-glucose 6-phosphate + H2O ightleftharpoons D-glucose + phosphate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are D-glucose 6-phosphate and H2O, whereas its two products are D-glucose and phosphate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is sugar-omega-phosphate phosphohydrolase. This enzyme is also called xylitol-5-phosphatase.
