Layman's explanation:
Fructose-6-Phosphate is a phosphorylated form of fructose which is commonly
found in plant cells and animal tissues. In plant cells, it serves as an
intermediate in glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, the pentose phosphate pathway, and
the Calvin cycle. It is also present in animal tissues in an equilibrium
mixture with glucose-6-phosphate. In human genetics, its gene symbol is GFPT1,
and its locus is 2p13.
