Gene information for G6PC (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2538
Official gene symbolG6PC
Full nameglucose-6-phosphatase, catalytic subunit
Aliases,G6PT,GSD1,GSD1a,MGC163350,
Gene summaryGlucose-6-phosphatase is an integral membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum that catalyzes the hydrolysis of D-glucose 6-phosphate to D-glucose and orthophosphate. It is a key enzyme in glucose homeostasis, functioning in gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. Defects in the enzyme cause glycogen storage disease type I (von Gierke disease). [provided by RefSeq]
