3.1.3.58 |
Accepted name: |
sugar-terminal-phosphatase |
Reaction: |
D-glucose 6-phosphate + H2O = D-glucose + phosphate |
Other name(s): |
xylitol-5-phosphatase |
Systematic name: |
sugar-ω-phosphate phosphohydrolase |
Comments: |
Acts on sugars and polyols phosphorylated on the terminal carbon, with a preference for sugars with a D-erythro-configuration, e.g. good substrates are glucose 6-phosphate, mannose 6-phosphate, 6-phosphogluconate, erythrose 4-phosphate and xylitol 5-phosphate. |
