DNA Cloning, Characterization, and Inhibition Studies of an α-Carbonic Anhydrase from the Pathogenic Bacterium Vibrio cholerae
26 Nov 2012
Abstract excerpt
We have cloned, purified, and characterized an α-carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from the human pathogenic bacterium Vibrio cholerae, VchCA. The new enzyme has significant catalytic activity, and an inhibition study with sulfonamides and sulfamates led to the detection of a large number of low nanomolar inhibitors, among which are methazolamide, acetazolamide, ethoxzolamide, dorzolamide, brinzolamide,...
