Novel 2-indolinones containing a sulfonamide moiety as selective inhibitors of candida β-carbonic anhydrase enzyme

Inhibition of the β-carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from pathogenic Candida glabrata (CgNce103) by 1H-indole-2,3-dione 3-[N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)thiosemicarbazones] 4a–m was investigated. All the compounds were found to be potent inhibitors of CgNce103, with inhibition constants in the range of 6....

Description
Summary:Inhibition of the β-carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from pathogenic Candida glabrata (CgNce103) by 1H-indole-2,3-dione 3-[N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)thiosemicarbazones] 4a–m was investigated. All the compounds were found to be potent inhibitors of CgNce103, with inhibition constants in the range of 6.4-63.9 nM. The 5,7-dichloro substituted derivative 4l showed the most effective inhibition (KI of 6.4 nM) as well as the highest selectivity for inhibiting CgNce103 over the cytosolic human (h) isoforms hCA I and II. A possible binding interaction of compound 4l within the active site of CgNce103 has been proposed based on docking studies.
