In enzymology an UDP-sugar diphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.45) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-sugar + H2O UMP + alpha-D-aldose 1-phosphateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-sugar and H2O whereas its two products are UMP and alpha-D-aldose 1-phosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases specifically those acting on acid anhydrides in phosphorus-containing anhydrides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-sugar sugarphosphohydrolase.
