The enzyme fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.54) catalyzes the reaction
The enzyme characterised from yeast hydrolyses fructose 2,6-bisphosphate to β-D-fructose 2-phosphate and orthophosphate.
This enzyme is a hydrolase, specifically one acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is β-D-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase. Other names in use include fructose 2,6-bisphosphate-6-phosphohydrolase, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase, and D-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase.
See also Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase, which removes specifically the 2-phosphate group from fructose 2,6-bisphosphate
