Mechanistic Explanation of the Weak Carbonic Anhydrase’s Esterase Activity

Mechanistic Explanation of the Weak Carbonic Anhydrase’s Esterase Activity

In order to elucidate the elementary mechanism of the promiscuous esterase activity of human carbonic anhydrase (h-CA), we present an accurate theoretical investigation on the hydrolysis of fully-acetylated d-glucose functionalized as sulfamate. This h-CA’s inhibitor is of potential relevance in can...
