The enzyme dolichylphosphate-glucose phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.48) catalyzes the reaction
dolichyl β-D-glucosyl phosphate + H2O dolichyl phosphate + D-glucose
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric diester bonds. The systematic name is dolichyl-β-D-glucosyl-phosphate dolichylphosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include dolichol phosphoglucose phosphodiesterase, and Dol-P-Glc phosphodiesterase. This enzyme participates in n-glycan biosynthesis.
