The enzyme phosphoserine phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.3) catalyzes the reaction

O-phospho-L(or D)-serine + H2O L(or D)-serine + phosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name is O-phosphoserine phosphohydrolase. This enzyme participates in glycine, serine and threonine metabolism.
