Imidazolium hydroxide ring

A typical role for the histidine imidazole ring is shown below, in the enzyme mechanism for a general base-catalysed hydrolysis of an ester. The imidazole nitrogen acts as a base to remove a proton from water, generating hydroxide that attacks the carbonyl. Subsequently, the alkoxide leaving group is reprotonated by the imidazolium... [Pg.434]
