Function |
Hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in the endoplasmic reticulum. May form with the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (SLC37A4/G6PT) a ubiquitously expressed complex responsible for glucose production through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Probably required for normal neutrophil function. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12370122, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12965222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:13129915}.

Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:13129915}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:13129915}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed. Highly expressed in skeletal muscle, at intermediate levels in heart, brain, placenta, kidney, colon, thymus, spleen and pancreas. Also detected in testis, prostate, ovary, liver, lung, small intestine and peripheral blood lymphocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12370122, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12965222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14765991}.
