Quantitative Characterization of the Chemical Space Governed by Human Carbonic Anhydrases and selenium-containing derivatives of solfonamides

Rasti, Behnam.

Braz. J. Pharm. Sci. (Online); 58 (), 2022

Abstract Due to the fact that different isoforms of carbonic anhydrase play distinct physiological roles, their diseases/disorders involvement are different as well. Involvement in major disorders such as glaucoma, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, obesity and cancers, have turned carbonic anhydrase into a ...

Unexpected results from direct measurement, with a torsion microbalance in a closed system, of calcification rates of the coral Agaricia agaricites (Scleractinia: Agariicidae) and concomitant changes in seawater pH

Sandeman, Ian M.

Rev. biol. trop; 62 (supl.3), 2014

Ocean acidification is impacting the calcification of corals, but the mechanisms of calcification are still unclear. To explore the relationship between calcification and pH, small pieces of coral were suspended from a torsion microbalance in gently stirred, temperature controlled, seawater in a closed c...

Preliminary results with a torsion microbalance indicate that carbon dioxide and exposed carbonic anhydrase in the organic matrix are the basis of calcification on the skeleton surface of living corals

Sandeman, Ian M.

Rev. biol. trop; 60 (supl.1), 2012

Ocean acidification is altering the calcification of corals, but the mechanism is still unclear. To explore what controls calcification, small pieces from the edges of thin plates of Agaricia agaricites were suspended from a torsion microbalance into gently stirred, temperaturecontrolled, seawater. Net c...
