Phosphatase with broad substrate specificity. A truncated (soluble) version of the protein is responsible for the production of (E,E)-farnesol from (E,E)-farnesyl diphosphate. Acts as a fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphatase (PubMed:1848184). a phosphate monoester + H2O = an alcohol + phosphate (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O = (2E,6E)-farnesol + diphosphate beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate + H2O = beta-D-fructose 2-phosphate + phosphate Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion. Binds 2 Zn(2+) ions. Optimum pH is 7.0 for farnesyl diphosphatase activity. The full-length version is found in lysosome-like vacuoles. The truncated version of the protein is soluble. Present with 3060 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Belongs to the alkaline phosphatase family.
