        | the most potent suppressors of gastric acid secretion are inhibitors of the gastric H/K/ATPase (PROTON PUMP) 
 member of the P2-type ATPase family and undergoes a cycle of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation coupled to the outward transport of H+ and the inward transport of K+
 
 conformations of the enzyme that bind ions for outward transport are defines as E1
 
 those that bind luminal ions for inward transport are E2
 
 ion binding to E1 activates phosphylation from MgATP to form the intermediate E1-P, which then converts to E2-P in the acid transport step
 
 K+ binding to E2-P stimulates dephosphorylation to give an occluded form followed by conversion to E1-K+ and release of K+ to cytoplasm
 
 PPIs bind to the outer face of the enzyme in the E2 conformation
