The current model for the catalytic reaction of edema factor is the following: the reaction is mediated by 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 conformation 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. <ref> PMID: 15719022</ref>

The '''magnesium ion''' that is coordinated by <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_702/Asp_and_his/2'>aspartates 491 and 493 and histidine 577</scene>  is localized near the 3'OH of ATP. Since it is positively charged, it stabilizes the negative charge of the 3'-oxyanion and thus facilitates the deprotonation of 3'OH. The action of this ion and of <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_702/histidine_351/1'>histidine 351</scene> can be additive. To summarise, <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_702/histidine_351/1'>histidine 351</scene> increases the local pH by attracting HO-, and the metal ion decreases the pKa of the 3'OH group. Maybe the magnesium ion also stabilizes the reaction intermediate by moving towards the non-bridging oxygen of α-phosphate durung the nucleophilic attack. <ref> PMID: 15719022</ref>

The '''second magnesium ion''', that is coordinated with the oxygens of the phosphates of ATP, facilitates the bond breakage between α and β-phosphates. Indeed, it stabilizes the resulting negative charges. The stabilisation of the negative charged intermediate is also performed by different positive charged residues: arginine 329, lysine 353, lysine 372 and lysine 346. <ref> PMID: 15719022</ref>

The products, pysophosphate and cyclic AMP dissociate through different solvent accessible channels in a two-step process facilitated by product protonation. They are linked to the enzyme by electrostatic interactions with the magnesium ions. The binding of a water molecule to the ions is competitive with thier binding to reaction products and breaks the electrostatic links. Ligands are progressively solvated. In a first time the most important electrostatic interactions are preserved. This depends on the flexibility of the active site. Then the electrostatic interactions are broken and the products can diffuse into solvent. <ref> PMID: 21425348</ref>
