- In metabolism: Hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-diphosphate and glucose 6-phosphate
The enzyme fructose diphosphatase catalyzes reaction [59], in which the products are fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. The fructose 6-phosphate thus formed is a precursor of mucopolysaccharides (polysaccharides with nitrogen-containing components). In addition, its conversion to glucose 6-phosphate provides the starting material for the formation of storage…
