Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PC) associated with the inner face of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) to glucose (Glc) and orthophosphate (Pi). This reaction is essentially irreversible (Lei et al. 1993, Ghosh et al. 2002). Defects in G6PC are the cause of glycogen storage disease type 1a (Lei et al. 1993, 1995, Chou and Mansfield 2008).
