Cytosolic FBP (fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase) tetramers catalyze the physiologically irreversible hydrolysis of F1,6PP (fructose-1,6-bisphosphate) to form Fru(6)P (fructose-6-phosphate) and Pi (orthophosphate). In the body, two isoforms of the enzyme are expressed, one ubiquitous and one muscle-specific (Kikawa et al. 1997; Tillmann and Eschrich 1998).
