In enzymology, a sugar-terminal-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.58) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

D-glucose 6-phosphate + H2O D-glucose + phosphate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are and H2O, whereas its two products are D-glucose and phosphate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is sugar-omega-phosphate phosphohydrolase. This enzyme is also called xylitol-5-phosphatase.
