Biochemistry

a general catalytic mechanism for phosphoryl transfer in which two divalent metal ions activate the nucleophile and stabilize the leaving group.

In biochemistry, two-metal-ion mechanism refers to a general catalytic mechanism for phosphoryl transfer in which two divalent metal ions activate the nucleophile and stabilize the leaving group. This meaning comes from Steitz (1993) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1]
