The enzyme sugar-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.23) catalyzes the reaction

sugar phosphate + H2O {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } sugar + phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name is sugar-phosphate phosphohydrolase.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 2HF2.
