Metal Ion Catalysis
[edit]The presence of a metal ion in the active site participates in catalysis by coordinating charge stabilization and shielding. Because of a metal's positive charge, only negative charges can be stabilized through metal ions. [1] Metal ions can also act to ionize water by acting as a Lewis acid [2]. Metal ions may also be agents of oxidation and reduction[3].
