7.4.2.7 |
Accepted name: |
ABC-type α-factor-pheromone transporter |
Reaction: |
ATP + H2O + α-factor[side 1] = ADP + phosphate + α-factor[side 2] |
Other name(s): |
α-factor-transporting ATPase; α-factor-pheromone transporting ATPase |
Systematic name: |
ATP phosphohydrolase (ABC-type, α-factor-exporting) |
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. Does not undergo phosphorylation during the transport process. A yeast enzyme that exports the α-factor sex pheromone. |
