ENTRY       EC 3.1.3.58
NAME        Sugar-terminal-phosphatase
            Xylitol-5-phosphatase
CLASS       Hydrolases
            Acting on ester bonds
            Phosphoric monoester hydrolases
SYSNAME     Sugar-omega-phosphate phosphohydrolase
REACTION    D-Glucose 6-phosphate + H2O = D-Glucose + Orthophosphate
SUBSTRATE   D-Glucose 6-phosphate
            H2O
PRODUCT     D-Glucose
            Orthophosphate
COMMENT     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.
