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
