In enzymology, a 3-phosphoglycerate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.38) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- D-glycerate 3-phosphate + H2O D-glycerate + phosphate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are D-glycerate 3-phosphate and H2O, whereas its two products are D-glycerate 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 D-glycerate-3-phosphate phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include D-3-Phosphoglycerate phosphatase, and 3-PGA phosphatase. This enzyme participates in glycine, serine and threonine metabolism.
