Anion Inhibition Studies of the β-Class Carbonic Anhydrase CAS3 from the Filamentous Ascomycete Sordaria macrospora

Sumario: | CAS3 is a newly cloned cytosolic β-class carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from the filamentous ascomycete Sordaria macrospora. This enzyme has a high catalytic activity for the physiological CO(2) hydration reaction and herein, we report the inhibition profile of CAS3 with anions and small molecules. The most effective CAS3 anions/small molecule inhibitors were diethyl-dithiocarbamate, sulfamide, sulfamate, phenyl boronic and phenyl arsonic acids, with K(I)s in the range of 0.89 mM–97 µM. Anions such as iodide, the pseudohalides, bicarbonate, carbonate, nitrate, nitrite, hydrogensulfide, stannate, selenate, tellurate, tetraborate, perrhenate, perruthenate, selenocyanide and trithiocarbonate were low millimolar CAS3 inhibitors. The light halides, sulfate, hydrogensulfite, peroxydisulfate, diphosphate, divanadate, perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate, fluorosulfonate and iminodisulfonate did not significantly inhibit this enzyme. These data may be useful for developing antifungals based on CA inhibition, considering the fact that many of the inhibitors reported here may be used as lead molecules and, by incorporating the appropriate organic scaffolds, potent nanomolar inhibitors could be developed. |
