Carbonic anhydrase under pressure
نویسنده
چکیده
Investigations of the rapid enzyme carbonic anhydrase have now been extended by crystallographic analysis at high CO2 pressures to examine the movements of water molecules in different steps of the catalysis. The rate of catalysis seems well explained by the assembled observations.

Study of Glycation Process of Human Carbonic Anhydrase II and Investigation of Effect of Fasting On Enzyme Activity by Using Spectroscopic Methods
Background: Glycation is the non-enzymatic reaction between the carbonyl groups in sugar and free amino groups in proteins. this reaction leads to changes in structure and functions of proteins. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is the final stage in this process, which is highly oxidizing and destructive nature, causing many diabetic complications. Methods: In the present investigation, ...
متن کاملpH Dependence Study of the Kinetic Reaction of Bovine Carbonic Anhydrase with 2,2'-Dithiobispyridine in the Absence and Presence of Surfactants
The pH dependence study reveals that the Cys 206 sulphydryl group of bovine carbonicanhydrase in the native form is not exposed. During the reaction of 2,2'-dithiobispyridine (2-DTP) with the enzyme, there was no absorbance change recorded. In the presence ofsurfactants, the pH dependence profiles of the apparent second order rate constants, kapp, forthe reaction of 2-DTP with bovine carbonic a...
متن کاملThe relationship between carbonic anhydrases and zinc concentration of erythrocytes in patients under chronic hemodialysis.
The levels of carbonic anhydrase I and II isozymes in human erythrocytes were determined using the single radial immunodiffusion method in 53 patients (29 males, 24 females) under chronic hemodialysis, and zinc concentration in erythrocytes were also determined. Both carbonic anhydrase. I and II levels and zinc concentration in erythrocytes were observed to be significantly increased in chronic...

In this paper, we used quantum chemical approach to shed light on the catalytic mechanism of γ-carbonic anhydrase (γ-CA) to convert carbon dioxide to bicarbonate ion. Density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP and UB3LYP functional and three split-valance including 6-31G*, 6-311G** and 6-311++G** basis sets were used to calculate the details of electronic structure and electronic energy of act...
متن کاملQuantitative Structure - Activity Relationships Study of Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors Using Logistic Regression Model
Binary Logistic Regression (BLR) has been developed as non-linear models to establish quantitative structure- activity relationships (QSAR) between structural descriptors and biochemical activity of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Using a training set consisted of 21 compounds with known ki values, the model was trained and tested to solve two-class problems as active or inactive on the basi...
