Description
In enzymology, a N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.25) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate + H2O → D-glucosamine 6-phosphate + acetate. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate and H2O, whereas its two products are D-glucosamine 6-phosphate and acetate.
