title: Plant fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases: characteristics and properties.
abstract: In this minireview the properties and characteristics of plant fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase 1-phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.11) are discussed. The properties and characteristics of the chloroplastic and cytoplasmic forms of the enzyme are reviewed. For purposes of comparison some reference is made to fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases from other species.
