The enzyme deoxynucleotide 3′-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.34) catalyzes the reaction

a 2′-deoxyribonucleoside 3′-phosphate + H<sub>2</sub>O = a 2′-deoxyribonucleoside + phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name is 2′-deoxyribonucleotide 3′-phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include 3′-deoxynucleotidase, and 3′-deoxyribonucleotidase.
