Figures & data
Table 1. Inhibition constants of aromatic carboxylates 31–46 against isozymes human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) I and II (α-CA class) and β-CAs Can2 (from Cryptococcus neoformans) and Nce103 (from Candida albicans), for the CO2 hydration reaction, at 20°C. The standard sulphonamide inhibitor acetazolamide (1) was also included as standardCitation71.
Table 2. Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) from pathogenic bacteria cloned and characterised thus far (data for Vibrio cholerae are based on the sequence of a putative CA) and their inhibition studiesCitation8. The genome of many other bacteria contains CAs, which have not yet been cloned and characterised.
Table 3. Inhibition data of the human (h) α-carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms hCA I and II and mycobacterial β-CA isoforms mtCA 1 and 3 with dithiocarbamates 47–73 by a stopped-flow, CO2 hydrase assayCitation68.
Table 4. Inhibition data of mycobacterial β-carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms mtCA 1–3 with carboxylic acids 74–83 and sulphanilamide 84 by a stopped-flow, CO2 hydrase assayCitation83.
