Zn1 (coordinated by three histidine residues), acts as a major constituent of oxyanion hole to stabilize tetrahedral intermediate. It also acts as a Lewis acid for interaction with lactam carbonyl in Michaelis complex and acts to suppress the pKa of the hyrdolytic water to (~5-6) to facilitate it's nucleophilic role. | Zn1 (coordinated by three histidine residues), acts as a major constituent of oxyanion hole to stabilize tetrahedral intermediate.
