alpha,alpha-trehalose phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.64) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The two substrates of this enzyme characterised from Euglena gracilis are trehalose and orthophosphate (Pi). Its products are β-D-glucose-1-phosphate and D-glucose. The enzyme can act in reverse, producing the disaccharide trehalose.[1]

This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is alpha,alpha-trehalose:phosphate beta-D-glucosyltransferase. This enzyme is also called trehalose phosphorylase.[2]
