In enzymology a 3-deoxy-manno-octulosonate-8-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.45) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8-phosphate + H2O 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate + phosphateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8-phosphate and H2O whereas its two products are 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate and phosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds.
