Product Information
Name:5-Aminopyridine-2-sulfonamide
Brand:Biosynth
Description:5-Aminopyridine-2-sulfonamide (5APS) is an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase. It binds to the active site of the enzyme, which is a cavity in the protein's surface, and prevents the conversion of CO2 to HCO3-. The inhibition of this process leads to a decrease in the production of bicarbonate ions and an increase in acidity. 5APS has been shown to have inhibitory properties against several isoforms of carbonic anhydrase, including those found in bacteria and erythrocytes. X-ray crystallographic studies have led to the rationalization of its binding mode within the active site. 5APS has been shown to be effective as a treatment for glaucoma by reducing intraocular pressure.
