3.1.3.94 |
Accepted name: |
D-galactose 1-phosphate phosphatase |
Reaction: |
α-D-galactose 1-phosphate + H2O = D-galactose + phosphate |
Systematic name: |
α-D-galactose-1-phosphate phosphohydrolase |
Comments: |
The human enzyme also has the activity of EC 3.1.3.25, inositol-phosphate phosphatase. The enzyme has very low activity with L-galactose 1-phosphate (cf. EC 3.1.3.93, L-galactose 1-phosphate phosphatase). |
