Α,α-phosphotrehalase

Template:Lowercase title Template:Infobox enzyme The enzyme α,α-phosphotrehalase (Template:EnzExplorer) catalyzes the following chemical reaction:

α,α-trehalose 6-phosphate + H₂O $\rightleftharpoons$ D-glucose + D-glucose 6-phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is α,α-trehalose-6-phosphate phosphoglucohydrolase. This enzyme is also called phosphotrehalase. This enzyme participates in starch and sucrose metabolism.
