Abstract

The interaction of Zn (II)-and Co (II)-carbonic anhydrase (CA) with a series of compounds possessing moieties resembling the aromatic sulfonamides, such as sulfamide, sulfamic acid, N-substituted aromatic sulfonamides, sulfenamides, sulfinic and seleninic acids, was investigated using kinetic and spectroscopic techniques. All these compounds inhibit the hydrasic and esterasic activity of the enzyme. Their binding within the active site of ...
