In [[enzymology]], a '''peroxisome-assembly ATPase''' ({{EC number|3.6.4.7}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]

:[[Adenosine triphosphate|ATP]] + [[Hydrogen|H]]<sub>2</sub>[[Oxygen|O]] <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> [[Adenosine diphosphate|ADP]] + [[phosphate]]

Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[adenosine triphosphate|ATP]] and [[water|H<sub>2</sub>O]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[adenosine diphosphate|ADP]] and [[phosphate]]. Its function is to transport components of the [[peroxisome]] in and out of the [[organelle]].

This enzyme belongs to the family of [[hydrolase]]s, specifically those acting on acid anhydrides to facilitate cellular and subcellular movement. The systematic name of this enzyme class is '''ATP phosphohydrolase (peroxisome-assembling)'''. This enzyme is also called '''peroxisome assembly factor-2'''.
