Structural highlights
Disease[CAH2_HUMAN] Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730]; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Function[CAH2_HUMAN] Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedN-Unsubstituted carbamates have scarcely been investigated so far as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs). By means of kinetic and structural studies, in this paper we demonstrate that such molecules can effectively inhibit hCAs and can be used as lead compounds for the development of CAIs possessing a binding mode similar to one of the CA substrates, bicarbonate. Inhibition of carbonic anhydrases by a substrate analog: benzyl carbamate directly coordinates the catalytic zinc ion mimicking bicarbonate binding.,De Simone G, Angeli A, Bozdag M, Supuran CT, Winum JY, Monti SM, Alterio V Chem Commun (Camb). 2018 Aug 24. doi: 10.1039/c8cc05755a.
