An ATP-binding cassette (ABC) type transporter, characterized by the presence of two similar ATP-binding domains/proteins and two integral membrane domains/proteins. A bacterial enzyme that interacts with an extracytoplasmic substrate binding protein and mediates the high affinity uptake of Ni2+; the identity of the nickel species transported has not been conclusively established. Does not undergo phosphorylation during the transport process. Formerly EC?3.6.3.24.
