EC 7.3.2.6     
Accepted name: ABC-type tungstate transporter
Reaction: ATP + H2O + tungstate-[tungstate-binding protein][side 1] = ADP + phosphate + tungstate[side 2] + [tungstate-binding protein][side 1]
Other name(s): tungstate transporter; tungstate-importing ATPase; tungstate-specific ABC transporter; WtpABC; TupABC
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (ABC-type, tungstate-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. The enzyme, characterized from the archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus, the Gram-positive bacterium Eubacterium acidaminophilum and the Gram-negative bacterium Campylobacter jejuni, interacts with an extracytoplasmic substrate binding protein and mediates the import of tungstate into the cell for incorporation into tungsten-dependent enzymes.
