This family consists of Sucrose-6F-phosphate phosphohydrolase proteins found in plants and cyanobacteria. Sucrose-6(F)-phosphate phosphohydrolase catalyses the final step in the pathway of sucrose biosynthesis [1]. [1]. 11050182.

This small group of proteins is a member of the IIB subfamily (TIGR01484) of the Haloacid Dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily of aspartate-nucleophile hydrolases. Several members of this family from thermophiles (and from Dehalococcoides ethenogenes) are now known to act as mannosyl-3-phosphoglycerate (MPG) phosphatase. In these cases, the enzyme acts after MPG synthase to make the compatible solute mannosylglycerate. We propose that other mesophilic members of this family do not act as mannosyl-3-phosphoglycerate phosphatase. A member of this family is found in Escherichia coli, which appears to lack MPG synthase. Mannosylglycerate is imported in E. coli by phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent transporter (PMID:14645248), but it appears the phosphorylation is not on the glycerate moiety, that the phosphorylated import is degraded by an alpha-mannosidase from an adjacent gene, and that E. coli would have no pathway to obtain MPG.

This subfamily falls within the Haloacid Dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily of aspartate-nucleophile hydrolases. The Class II subfamilies are characterized by a domain that is located between the second and third conserved catalytic motifs of the superfamily domain. The IIB subfamily is distinguished from the IIA subfamily (TIGR01460) by homology and the predicted secondary structure of this domain by PSI-PRED. The IIB subfamily's Class II domain has the following predicted structure: Helix-Sheet-Sheet-(Helix or Sheet)-Helix-Sheet-(variable)-Helix-Sheet-Sheet. The IIB subfamily consists of Trehalose-6-phosphatase (TIGR00685), plant and cyanobacterial Sucrose-phosphatase and a closely related group of bacterial and archaeal sequences, eukaryotic phosphomannomutase (PF03332), a large subfamily ("Cof-like hydrolases", TIGR00099) containing many closely related bacterial sequences, a hypothetical equivalog containing the E. coli YedP protein, as well as two small clusters containing OMNI|TC0379 and OMNI|SA2196 whose relationship to the other groups is unclear.
