A series of sulfonamide derivatives were synthesized, and the enzyme inhibitory activity of the synthesized compounds on carbonic anhydrase II was evaluated. Through molecular docking studies, it was found that compounds 1b, 1e, 2a, 2b, 3a have a strong
binding affinity to carbonic anhydrase II. The IC50 values of the four compounds 1e, 2b, 3a, and 3b were lower than that of the positive control drug acetazolamide. What's more, the compounds had a high inhibitory activity for A549 lung cancer cell growth,
among them, 1e and 3a could inhibit both carbonic anhydrase II and lung cancer cell proliferation.

Ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) mass spectrometry unlocks insights into the protein structure and sequence through fragmentation patterns. While N- and C-terminal fragments are traditionally relied upon, this work highlights the critical role of internal fragments in achieving near-complete sequencing of protein. Previous limitations of internal fragment utilization, owing to their abundance and potential for random matching, are addressed here with the development of Panda-UV, a novel software tool combining spectral calibration, and Pearson correlation coefficient scoring for confident fragment assignment. Panda-UV showcases its power through comprehensive benchmarks on three model proteins. The inclusion of internal fragments boosts identified fragment numbers by 26% and enhances average protein sequence coverage to a remarkable 93% for intact proteins, unlocking the hidden region of the largest protein carbonic anhydrase II in model proteins. Notably, an average of 65% of internal fragments can be identified in multiple replicates, demonstrating the high confidence of the fragments Panda-UV provided. Finally, the sequence coverages of mAb subunits can be increased up to 86% and the complementary determining regions (CDRs) are nearly completely sequenced in a single experiment. The source codes of Panda-UV are available at https://github.com/PHOENIXcenter/Panda-UV.

Nanozymes provide comparative advantages over natural enzymes and conventional artificial enzymes for catalytic reactions. However, nanozymes are only suitable for limited types of reactions, whose catalytic principles are not yet fully revealed. Herein, a new nanozyme based on a bionic zeolitic imidazolate framework is proposed. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) possesses a similar geometric structure to that of the active center of human carbonic anhydrase II (hCAII) and exhibits catalytic performance analogous to that of the hCAII. The less imidazolate coordinated zinc cations on the external surface of ZIF-8 can act as Lewis acid sites, lowering the pKa of Zn-bound H2O molecules from 14 to 8.4, which facilitates the deprotonation of H2O molecules and generation of zinc-bound hydroxide nucleophiles. The esterase-like ZIF-8 nanozyme shows a similar affinity to p-nitrophenyl acetate compared with hCAII. The ZIF-8 nanozyme also promotes CO2 hydration and acetylthiocholine hydrolysis reaction, and a series of ZIFs are also found with intrinsic enzyme-like activities due to similar compositions and spatial structures. These results imply that the bionic nanoparticles can be developed to fabricate a new generation of nanozymes by mimicking the active sites of natural enzymes.

A simple and time-saving colorimetric method was developed to quantify sulfonamides (SAAs) in milk via inhibition of the human carbonic anhydrase II (hCAII)-like activity of ZIF-8 that can hydrolyze p -nitrophenyl acetate ( p NPA) to p -nitrophenol ( p NP), following the color change from yellow to colorless. Effects of different reaction conditions, including pH, temperature, amount of ZIF-8, and incubation time , were investigated. The value of Michaelis-Menten constant ( K m ) is measured to be 0.15 mM, which exhibits high affinity to p NPA. The IC 50 (0.17, 0.24, and 0.60 mM) and inhibition constant ( K i ) (0.09, 0.13, and 0.33 mM) of sulfamethazine (SD), sulfadimethoxine (SDM), and sulfathiazole (ST) on ZIF-8 were measured, respectively. Moreover, the activity of ZIF-8 remains more than 90.0% of its initial activity after 30 days’ storage. The colorimetric method for SD, SDM, and ST determination was established at the linear ranges of 6.3–750.0 μM (1.75–208.75 mg/kg), 6.3–750.0 μM (1.96–232.75 mg/kg), and 5.0–1250.0 μM (1.28–319.15 mg/kg) with limit of detection of 4.3, 3.2, and 3.9 μΜ (1.2, 0.99, and 0.96 mg/kg), respectively. In addition, the spiked recoveries of SAAs in milk sample are in the range of 81.6%–106.7% with RSD less than 6.5%. In short, the developed colorimetric method can achieve rapid analysis of SAAs in milk with simple operations.

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) has received considerable attention for its ability to capture carbon dioxide efficiently. This study reports a simple strategy for immobilizing recombinant carbonic anhydrase II from human (hCA II) on Ni-based MOFs (Ni-BTC) nanorods, which was readily achieved in a one-pot immobilization of His-tagged hCA II (His-hCA II). Consequently, His-hCA II from cell lysate could obtain an activity recovery of 99% under optimal conditions. After storing for 10 days, the immobilized His-hCA II maintained 40% activity while the free enzyme lost 91% activity. Furthermore, during the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetic acid, immobilized His-hCA II exhibited excellent reusability and still retained more than 65% of the original activity after eight cycles. In addition, we also found that Ni-BTC had no fixation effect on proteins without histidine-tag. These results show that the Ni-BTC MOFs have a great potential with high efficiency for and specific binding of immobilized enzymes.Keywords:one-pot hydrothermal;immobilizing recombinant;His-hCA II;Ni-BTC nanorods

Photoaffinity labeling (PAL) has blossomed into a powerful and versatile tool for capture and identification of biomolecular targets. However, low labeling efficiency for specific targets such as lectins, the tedious process for protein purification, inevitable cellular photodamage, and less tissue penetration of UV light are significant challenges. Herein, we reported a near-infrared (NIR) light-driven photoaffinity labeling approach using upconverting nanoparticle (UCNP)-based photoactive probes, which were constructed by assembling photoactive groups and ligands onto NaYF4:Yb,Tm nanoparticles. The novel probes were easily prepared and functionalized, and the labeled proteins can be isolated and purified through simple centrifugation and washing. The advantages of this approach were demonstrated by labeling and isolation of peanut agglutinin (PNA), asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR), and human carbonic anhydrase II (hCAII) from mixed proteins or cell lysates with good selectivity and efficiency, especially for PNA and ASGPR, two lectins that showed low binding affinity to their ligands. More importantly, successful labeling of PNA through pork tissues and ASGPR in mice strongly proved the good tissue penetrating capacity of NIR light and the application potential of UCNP-based photoactive probes for protein labeling in vivo. Biosafety of this approach was experimentally validated by enzyme, cell, and animal work, and we demonstrated that NIR light caused minimal photodamage to enzyme activity compared to UV light, and the UCNP-based photoactive probe presents good biosafety both in vitro and in vivo. We believe that this novel PAL approach will provide a promising tool for study of ligand–protein interactions and identification of biomolecular targets.
