	The C-terminal domain is called Cytosolic epoxide hydrolase 2: it catalyzes the trans-addition of water to epoxides in order to product glycols. The <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_714/Cter_activesite/3'>active site</scene> is made of five residues. The 3D structure of this active site is maintained by hydrogen bonds, including those created by D496. The two tyrosines (Y383 and Y466) assist the proper positioning of the substrate by polarizing it, thanks to their hydroxyl groups. D335 plays the role of the nucleophilic acid. Finally, H524 plays the role of a base in order to release the final product.

	The N-terminal domain is responsible of the Mg2+ dependant hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate. Its <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_714/Nter_activesite/1'>active site</scene> contains several conserved aspartates in phosphatases and phosphonatases: D9, D11, D184 and D185. This enzymatic activity is ~~Mg2~~+ dependant, because the structure of the active site is in its optimal conformation when the cation makes coordination interactions. When the catalytic activity of the N-term domain is available, ~~magnesium~~ is octahedrally coordinated with the four aspartates, one water molecule and the phosphate belonging to the substrate.
