Arsenite-transporting ATPase
Definition:
EC Tree > 7 Translocases > 7.3 Catalysing the translocation of inorganic anions and their chelates > 7.3.2 Linked to the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate > 7.3.2.7 arsenite-transporting ATPase
Arsenite-transporting ATPase (ArsAB) belongs to its own Ars family rather than ABC; it has a 12-TMS channel subunit and a peripheral ATPase pair, forming an arsenite-efflux pump for heavy-metal resistance. Structurally it is an ArsA/ArsB exporter.
