A cheminformatics and network pharmacology approach to elucidate the mechanism of action of Mycobacterium tuberculosis γ-carbonic anhydrase inhibitors

BackgroundMycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are critical enzymes that regulate pH by converting CO2 to HCO3−, essential for Mtb’s survival in acidic environments. Inhibiting γ-CAs presents a potential target for novel antituberculosis drugs with unique mechanisms of action.O...
