The fungal plasma membrane proton-ATPase is a membrane protein that belongs to primary ATPase-transporters class. ATPases in this class are characterized by their ability to convert the chemical energy generated by ATP hydrolysis to kinetic energy required for the transport of ions through the membrane. ATPase transporters are classified to P-‚F-‚V-ATPases and ABC transporters. Fungal plasma membrane proton-ATPase belongs to class P-type ATPases . Other members of the P-type ATPase class include
