cytosine + H2O = uracil + NH3
active site architecture and substrate binding, catalytic mechanism
cytosine + H2O = uracil + NH3
substrate binding involves a significant conformational change that sequesters the reaction complex from solvent, active site architecture and substrate binding, catalytic mechanism
cytosine + H2O = uracil + NH3
E64 side-chain carboxyl group acts as proton shuttle between the Zn-bound water molecule and cytosine. In course of reaction, cytosine reorients to favor nucleophilic attack by a Zn-bound hydroxide. F114 may be important for reactant binding and product release

the rate-determining step of the reaction concerns the breaking of the product-metal binding state and has a barrier of about 18 kcal/mol. The protonation of cytosine by Glu64 in the substrate binding stage as well as the product transport step are also important and influence the whole catalytic efficiency, due to their considerable barriers (12-13 kcal/mol). The driving force for the overall enzymatic reaction likely comes from the reactant delivery to the active site of the protein

19F NMR experiments show that binding of the inhibitor 5-fluoro-1H-pyrimidin-2-one (5FPy) to the wild-type yCD causes an upfield shift, indicating that the bound inhibitor is in the hydrated form, mimicking the transition state or the tetrahedral intermediate in the activation of 5FC. Binding of 5FPy to the E64A mutant enzyme causes a downfield shift, indicating that the bound 5FPy remains in an unhydrated form in the complex with the mutant enzyme
