Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase

The enzyme fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase ({EC 3.1.3.46) catalyzes the reaction

β-<small>D</small>-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate + H<sub>2</sub>O <small>D</small>-fructose 6-phosphate + phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name is β-<small>D</small>-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase, and <small>D</small>-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphohydrolase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.
