Definition
D-sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). D-sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate can be found in a number of food items such as pot marjoram, capers, sesbania flower, and lemon thyme, which makes D-sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Sedoheptulose-bisphosphatase (also sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase or SBPase) (EC 3.1.3.37) is an enzyme that catalyzes the removal of a phosphate group from sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate to produce sedoheptulose 7-phosphate. SBPase is an example of a phosphatase, or, more generally, a hydrolase. This enzyme participates in the Calvin cycle .
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit.
