The enzyme fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.54) catalyzes the reaction

β-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] β-D-fructofuranose 2-phosphate + phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is β-D-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include fructose 2,6-bisphosphate-6-phosphohydrolase, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase, and D-fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphohydrolase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.
