Amino Acids as Building Blocks for Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors
2018-05-09
Abstract excerpt
Carbonic Anhydrases (CAs) are a superfamily of metalloenzymes widespread in all life kingdoms, classified into seven genetically different families (α-θ). These enzymes catalyse the reversible hydration of carbonic anhydride (CO2), generating bicarbonate (HCO3-) and protons (H+). Fifteen isoforms of human CA (hCA I-XV) have been isolated, their presence being fundamental for the regulation of many phys...
