The crystal structure of human carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) complexed with the inhibitor acetazolamide (AZM) has been determined at 1.1 A resolution and refined to an R(cryst) of 11.2% and an R(free) of 14.7%. As observed in previous CA II-inhibitor complexes, AZM binds directly to the zinc and makes several key interactions with active-site residues. The high-resolution data also showed a glycerol molecule adjacent to the AZM in the active site and two additional AZMs that are adventitiously bound on the surface of the enzyme. The co-binding of AZM and glycerol in the active site demonstrate that given an appropriate ring orientation and substituents, an isozyme-specific CA inhibitor may be developed.
已确定与抑制剂乙酰唑胺(AZM)复合的人碳酸酐酶II(CA II)的晶体结构,分辨率为1.1埃,精修后R(cryst)为11.2%,R(free)为14.7%。正如在先前的CA II-抑制剂复合物中所观察到的,AZM直接与锌结合,并与活性位点残基形成几个关键相互作用。高分辨率数据还显示在活性位点中有一个甘油分子与AZM相邻,以及另外两个偶然结合在酶表面的AZM。AZM和甘油在活性位点的共同结合表明,给定合适的环取向和取代基,可能开发出一种同工酶特异性的CA抑制剂。
