Glycerophosphoinositol glycerophosphodiesterase

The enzyme glycerophosphoinositol glycerophosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.44) catalyzes the reaction


 * 1-(sn-glycero-3-phospho)-1 D -myoinositol + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ myo-inositol + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric diester bonds. The systematic name is 1-(sn-glycero-3-phospho)-1 D -myo-inositol glycerophosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include sn-glycero(3)phosphoinositol glycerophosphohydrolase, and sn-glycero-3-phospho-1-inositol glycerophosphohydrolase.
