Reaction: ATP + H2O + K+out = ADP + phosphate + K+in
Other name(s): K+-translocating Kdp-ATPase; multi-subunit K+-transport ATPase
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (K+-importing)
Comments: A P-type ATPase that undergoes covalent phosphorylation during the transport cycle. A bacterial enzyme of di(heterotetrameric) structure that is involved in K+ import. The probable stoichiometry is one ion per ATP hydrolysed.
