Mannosylglycerate hydrolase

Template:Infobox enzyme Mannosylglycerate hydrolase (Template:EC number, 2-O-(6-phospho-mannosyl)-D-glycerate hydrolase, alpha-mannosidase, mngB (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 2-O-(6-phospho-alpha-D-mannosyl)-D-glycerate acylhydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

2-O-(6-phospho-alpha-D-mannosyl)-D-glycerate + H₂O $\rightleftharpoons$ D-mannose 6-phosphate + D-glycerate

The enzyme participates in the mannosylglycerate degradation pathway of some bacteria.
