Phosphoric
monoester
hydrolases
are
enzymes
that
catalyse
the
hydrolysis
of O-P
bonds
by
nucleophilic attack
of
phosphorus
by
cysteine
residues
or
coordinated
metal ions
.
They are
categorized
with the
EC number
3.1.3.
Examples
include:
acid phosphatase
alkaline phosphatase
fructose-bisphosphatase
glucose-6-phosphatase
