    basic FUNCTION
  • catalyses the final step in the gluconeogenic and glycogenolytic pathways, the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate to glucose
  • involved in catalytic gluconeogenesis, energy pathway
  • may be a single membrane channel protein acting both as a hydrolase and a translocase
  • key enzyme in homeostatic regulation of blood glucose levels
  • possible role for PCK2 and G6PC in the DNA damage response
