EC 3.6.3.29

Accepted name: molybdate-transporting ATPase

Reaction: ATP + H2O + molybdateout = ADP + phosphate + molybdatein

Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (molybdate-importing)

Comments: ABC-type (ATP-binding cassette-type) ATPase, characterised by the presence of two similar ATP-binding domains. Does not undergo phosphorylation during the transport process. A bacterial enzyme that imports molybdate anions.
