EC 3.1.3.9 Details
EC number
3.1.3.9
Accepted name
glucose-6-phosphatase
Reaction
D-glucose 6-phosphate + H2O = D-glucose + phosphate
Other name(s)
glucose 6-phosphate phosphatase
Systematic name
D-glucose-6-phosphate phosphohydrolase
CAS registry number

Comment
Wide distribution in animal tissues. Also catalyses potent transphosphorylations from carbamoyl phosphate, hexose phosphates, diphosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate and nucleoside di- and triphosphates, to D-glucose, D-mannose, 3-methyl-D-glucose or 2-deoxy-D-glucose [cf. EC 2.7.1.62 (phosphoramidate—hexose phosphotransferase), EC 2.7.1.79 (diphosphate—glycerol phosphotransferase) and EC 3.9.1.1 (phosphoamidase)].
