Reaction: ATP + H2O + Cu2+in = ADP + phosphate + Cu2+out
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (Cu2+-exporting)
Comments: A P-type ATPase that undergoes covalent phosphorylation during the transport cycle. This bacterial and mammalian enzyme exports Cu2+ from cells. In humans, it is involved in Menkes disease and Wilson's disease.
