Class of enzymes From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

In enzymology, a monosaccharide-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.3.17) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + H2O + monosaccharideout ADP + phosphate + monosaccharidein

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

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 (monosaccharide-importing). This enzyme participates in abc transporters - general.
