Carbonic anhydrase activator
General
Enhances the activity of carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes, which are crucial for pH balance and CO2 transport, by facilitating proton transfer in the enzyme's active site. Potential therapeutic uses being explored for neurological conditions like Alzheimer's disease, memory disorders, and anxiety, as well as in tissue engineering, due to CA's role in brain function. Used as building blocks of Multi-target drug ligand MTDL
