Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables fructose 1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphatase activity. Involved in gluconeogenesis. Predicted to be located in extracellular space and nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; facial bone primordium; ganglia; genitourinary system; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase deficiency. Orthologous to human FBP1 (fructose-bisphosphatase 1).
