[Functioning of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase--main enzyme of gluconeogenesis in microorganisms].

The modern literature data about common characteristics, genetic and molecular-biological properties of main enzyme of gluconeogenesis (fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase) were analyzed. Regulation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity (stimulation and inhibition) by fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate, AMP and by metal ions are discussed. It was concluded that apart from the fact that fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was intensively investigated, this enzyme from Mollicutes failed to be studied sufficiently.
