ABC-type oligopeptide transporter

The ABC-type oligopeptide transporter or oligopeptide permease is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction


 * ATP + H2O + oligopeptide(out) $$\rightleftharpoons$$ ADP + phosphate + oligopeptide(in)

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, H2O, and oligopeptide, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and oligopeptide.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on acid anhydrides to catalyse transmembrane movement of substances. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP phosphohydrolase (ABC-type, oligopeptide-importing).
