the binding of carbamoyl phosphate to the enzymes aspartate and ornithine transcarbamoylase reduces the rate of thermal decomposition of carbamoyl phosphate by a factor of >5000. Both of these transcarbamoylases use an ordered-binding mechanism in which carbamoyl phosphate binds first, allowing the formation of an enzyme-carbamoyl phosphate complex. The critical step in the thermal decomposition of carbamoyl phosphate in aqueous solution, in the absence of enzyme, involves the breaking of the C-O bond facilitated by intramolecular proton transfer from the amine to the phosphate. The binding of carbamoyl phosphate to the active sites of the enzymes significantly inhibits this process by restricting the accessible conformations of the bound ligand to those disfavoring the reactive geometry
