FIG. 8. Schematic representation of the reaction mechanism of ADPR hydrolysis. The reaction scheme was proposed based on the active site architecture according to the structural and functional analyses of TtADPRase. Reaction state I is the metal-bound state, II is the ternary complex with substrate and metal, III is the transition state, and IV is the product release state. The nucleophilic attack and proton abstraction events are shown by pink arrows.
