The water molecules at the binuclear metal centre coordinate the phosphate group of the substrate, each ion is hexa-coordinated by <scene name='32/32/Protein_pp2cm_with_mgii/8'>oxygen atoms</scene> from water, providing a nucleophile and general acid in the dephosphorylation reaction, and Arg33 creates a local positive electrostatic potential on the protein for recognition of the phosphate group of the substrate. The nucleophile is the metal-bridging water molecule which could attack the phosphorus atom in an S<sub>N</sub>2 mechanism. Coordination to two Mg<sup>2+</sup> ions may stabilize the morenucleophilic hydroxide ion species. Other ions such as Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Zn<sup>2+</sup> and Ni<sup>2+</sup> inactivate the enzyme by competitively inhibiting Mn<sup>2+</sup> or Mg<sup>2+</sup> binding. | The water molecules at the binuclear metal centre coordinate the phosphate group of the substrate, each ion is hexa-coordinated by <scene name='32/32/Protein_pp2cm_with_mgii/8'>oxygen atoms</scene> from water, providing a nucleophile and general acid in the dephosphorylation reaction, and Arg33 creates a local positive electrostatic potential on the protein for recognition of the phosphate group of the substrate.
