Journal ArticleDOI

Selective hydrophobic pocket binding observed within the carbonic anhydrase II active site accommodate different 4-substituted-ureido-benzenesulfonamides and correlate to inhibitor potency.

TL;DR: 4-Substituted-ureido benzenesulfonamides showing inhibitory activity against carbonic anhydrase II between 3.3-226 nM were crystallized in complex with the enzyme, explaining the diverse inhibitory range of these derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution structure of human carbonic anhydrase II complexed with acetazolamide reveals insights into inhibitor drug design.

TL;DR: The co-binding of AZM and glycerol in the active site demonstrate that given an appropriate ring orientation and substituents, an isozyme-specific CA inhibitor may be developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. The X-ray crystal structure of human isoform II in adduct with an adamantyl analogue of acetazolamide resides in a less utilized binding pocket than most hydrophobic inhibitors.

TL;DR: The high resolution X-ray crystal structure of hCA II in complex with 5-(1-adamantylcarboxamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide scaffold showed the adamantyl moiety of the inhibitor residing in a less utilized binding pocket than that of most hydrophobic inhibitors, lined by the amino acid residues Ile91, Val121 and Phe131.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anticonvulsant 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide derivatives with branched-alkylamide moieties: X-ray crystallography and inhibition studies of human carbonic anhydrase isoforms I, II, VII, and XIV.

TL;DR: Aromatic amides comprising branched aliphatic carboxylic acids and 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide andStructural studies suggest that differences in the active sites' hydrophobicity modulate the affinity of the inhibitors.
