Carbonic Anhydrases as Biocatalysts: From Theory to Medical and Industrial Applications

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) are ubiquitous metalloenzymes, present throughout most living organisms and encoded by five evolutionarily unrelated gene families.?The Carbonic Anhydrases as Biocatalysts:?From Theory to Medical and Industrial Applications?presents information on the growing interest in the study of this enzyme family and their applications to both medicine and biotechnology.Offers comprehensive coverage of the carbonic anhydrases enzyme family and their properties as biocatalysts Includes current applications of carbonic anhydrases in biotechnology on the basis of their catalytic efficiency, including new technologies for CO2?capture processes Identifies new targets for drug design studies Provides a selectivity profile for the different carbonic anhydrases and their related biomedical applications Carbonic Anhydrases as Biocatalysts: From Theory to Medical and Industrial Applications is written by Supuran, Claudiu T; De Simone, Giuseppina and published by Elsevier (S&T).ISBNs for Carbonic Anhydrases as Biocatalysts: From Theory to Medical and Industrial Applications are 9780444632586, 9780444632630, 0444632638 and the print ISBNs are 9780444632586, 0444632581.
