Reaction: ATP + H2O + glutathione-[glutathione-binding protein][side 1] = ADP + phosphate + glutathione[side 2] + [glutathione-binding protein][side 1]
Other name(s): glutathione transporting ATPase; glutathione ABC transporter; gsiACD (gene names)
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (ABC-type,glutathione-importing)
Comments: A prokaryotic ATP-binding cassette (ABC) type transporter, characterized by the presence of two similar ATP-binding domains/proteins and two integral membrane domains/proteins. The enzyme from the bacterium Escherichia coli is a heterotrimeric complex that interacts with an extracytoplasmic substrate binding protein to mediate the uptake of glutathione.
