Phosphatase is an enzyme that removes phosphate groups from molecules, while phosphorylase is an enzyme that adds phosphate groups to molecules. Phosphatase acts by hydrolyzing phosphate ester bonds, while phosphorylase catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from a donor molecule to a substrate molecule.
