2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate + thioredoxin disulfide + H2O = ribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate + thioredoxin role of enzyme in second step of catalytic mechanism which corresponds to the protonation/elimination of the substrate’s C2 hydroxyl group is mainly entropic by placing the substrate and the two reactive residues in a position that allows for the highly favorable concerted trimolecular reaction, and to protect the enzyme radical from the solvent Escherichia coli
