Reaction: ATP + H2O + arsenitein = ADP + phosphate + arseniteout
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (arsenite-exporting)
Comments: A multisubunit non-phosphorylated ATPase that is involved in the transport of ions. A bacterial enzyme that usually contains two subunits where one (with 12 membrane-spanning segments) forms the 'channel' part and the other (occurring in pairs peripherally to the membrane) contains the ATP-binding site. Exports arsenite and antimonite anions.
