Reaction: ATP + H2O + Ni2+-[nickel-binding protein][side 1] = ADP + phosphate + Ni2+[side 2] + [nickel-binding protein][side 1]
Other name(s): nickel ABC transporter; nickel-transporting ATPase; ABC-type nickel-transporter
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (ABC-type, Ni2+-importing)
Comments: An ATP-binding cassette (ABC) type transporter, characterized by the presence of two similar ATP-binding domains/proteins and two integral membrane domains/proteins. A bacterial enzyme that interacts with an extracytoplasmic substrate binding protein and mediates the high affinity uptake of Ni2+; the identity of the nickel species transported has not been conclusively established. Does not undergo phosphorylation during the transport process.
