Enzyme Information

3.1.3.21
Glycerol-1-phosphatase.
based on mapping to UniProt O33194
Glycerol 1-phosphate + H(2)O = glycerol + phosphate.
-!- The Dunaliella enzyme acts more rapidly on sn-glycerol 1-phosphate than on the 3-phosphate. -!- The enzyme from Saccharomyces cerevisiae also acts on propane-1,2- diol 1-phosphate, but not on a variety of other phosphate esters.
