Active transporters use ATP to convert the energy in ATP into potential energy in the form of a concentration gradient. They use the ATP to transport an ion from a low concentration to a higher concentration. Examples of proteins that use ATP are P-type ATPases that transfer Na⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ ions by phosphorylation, A-type ATPases that transfer anions, and ABC transporters (ATP
