Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Glucose-6-phosphatase
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. G-6-Pase
  2. G6Pase
  3. G6Pase-alpha
  4. Glucose-6-phosphatase alpha
Gene Name G6PC
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in catalytic activity
Specific Function Hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in the endoplasmic reticulum. Forms with the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (SLC37A4/G6PT) the complex responsible for glucose production through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Hence, it is the key enzyme in homeostatic regulation of blood glucose levels.
