Minus-end-directed kinesin ATPase (EC 3.6.4.5) is an enzyme with systematic name kinesin ATP phosphohydrolase (minus-end-directed).[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ATP + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] ADP + phosphate

This enzyme catalyses movement towards the minus end of microtubules.
