EC 3.1.3.58

Names

Accepted name:
sugar-terminal-phosphatase
Other name:
xylitol-5-phosphatase
Systematic name:
sugar-ω-phosphate phosphohydrolase

Reaction

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.
