show Brenda entry

EC number

3.1.3.79

Accepted name

mannosylfructose-phosphate phosphatase

Reaction

β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside 6^F-phosphate + H₂O = β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside + phosphate

Other name(s)

mannosylfructose-6-phosphate phosphatase, MFPP

Systematic name

β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside-6F-phosphate phosphohydrolase

Comment

This enzyme, from the soil proteobacterium and plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58, requires Mg²⁺ for activity. Mannosylfructose is the major endogenous osmolyte produced by several α-proteobacteria in response to osmotic stress and is synthesized by the sequential action of EC 2.4.1.246 (mannosylfructose-phosphate synthase) followed by this enzyme. While mannosylfructose 6-phosphate is the physiological substrate, the enzyme can use sucrose 6-phosphate very efficiently. The F in mannosylfructose 6^F-phosphate is used to indicate that the fructose residue of sucrose carries the substituent.
