IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 7.2.2.6

Accepted name: P-type K+ transporter

Reaction: ATP + H2O + K+[side 1] = ADP + phosphate + K+[side 2]

Other name(s): K+-translocating Kdp-ATPase; multi-subunit K+-transport ATPase; K+-transporting ATPase; potassium-importing ATPase; K+-importing ATPase

Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (P-type, K+-importing)

Comments: A P-type ATPase that undergoes covalent phosphorylation during the transport cycle. A bacterial enzyme that is involved in K+ import. The probable stoichiometry is one ion per ATP hydrolysed.
