HUMAN CARBONIC ANHYDRASE II COMPLEXED WITH BRINZOLAMIDE

Overview

Carbonic anhydrase IV (CAIV) is a membrane-associated enzyme anchored to, plasma membrane surfaces by a phosphatidylinositol glycan linkage. We have, determined the 2.8-angstroms resolution crystal structure of a truncated, soluble form of recombinant murine CAIV. We have also determined the, structure of its complex with a drug used for glaucoma therapy, the, sulfonamide inhibitor brinzolamide (Azopt). The overall structure of, murine CAIV is generally similar to that of human CAIV; however, some, local structural differences are found in the active site resulting from, amino acid sequence differences in the "130's segment" and the residue-63, loop (these may affect the nearby catalytic proton shuttle, His-64)., Similar to human CAIV, the C-terminus of murine CAIV is surrounded by a, ...
