Abstract
The soluble mycobacterial carbonic anhydrases Rv3588c and Rv1284 belong to a different class of carbonic anhydrases than those found in humans, making them attractive drug targets by using the inherent differences in the folds of the different classes. By screening a natural product library, we identified naphthoquinone derivatives as a novel non-classical inhibitor scaffold of mycobacterial carbonic anhydrases that lack the sulfonamide/sulfamate group and thus did not affect human carbonic anhydrase II.

Abstract
Owing to the key role of trehalose in pathogenic organisms, there has recently been growing interest in trehalose metabolism for therapeutic purposes. Trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (TPP) is a pivotal enzyme in the most prominent biosynthesis pathway (OtsAB). Here, we compare the enzyme characteristics of recombinant TPPs from five important nematode and bacterial pathogens, including three novel members of this protein family. Analysis of the kinetics of trehalose-6-phosphate hydrolysis reveals that all five enzymes display a burst-like kinetic behaviour which is characterised by a decrease of the enzymatic rate after the pre-steady state. The observed super-stoichiometric burst amplitudes can be explained by multiple global conformational changes in members of this enzyme family during substrate processing. In the search for specific TPP inhibitors, the trapping of the complex conformational transitions in TPPs during the catalytic cycle may present a worthwhile strategy to explore.
