In
enzymology, a
nonpolar-amino-acid-transporting ATPase is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction- ATP + H2O + nonpolar amino acidout ADP + phosphate + nonpolar amino acidin
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, H2O, and nonpolar amino acid, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and nonpolar amino acid.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on acid anhydrides acting on acid anhydrides to catalyse transmembrane movement of substances. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP phosphohydrolase (nonpolar-amino-acid-transporting).
