=== Mechanism of adenylyl cyclase of edema factor ===

The current model for the catalytic reaction of edema factor is the following: the reaction is mediated bu the nucleophilic attack of the 3' oxygen atom on the α-phosphate. Indeed, this oxygen in near the α-phosphate. The distance between the nucleophile 3'O and the α-phosphate atom os ATP is shorter than 3.5 Å. A 3'-endo conformtaion of the ribose and a direct coordination of the 3'O atom by the catalytic magnesium ion is the ideal geometry for the initiation of the nucleophilic attack of the 3'O on the α-phosphate. The adenylyl cyclase reaction takes place in several steps: binding of ATP to the edema factor, enabling the deprotonation of 3'OH, stabilization of the penta-coordinated phosphorus intermediate and finally the release of cAMP and pyrophosphate.

Moreover, theprotonated histidine 351 stabilizes the HO- ion near the 3'OH group. Another model is that a neutral histidine deprotonates a water molecule and that the resulting HO- ion facilitates the deprotonation of 3'OH of ATP.
