description

A survey of the structure-function relationship in the enzyme carbonic anhydrase is presented. The coordination number around the metal ion in derivatives inhibited with some anions is stressed as well as the role of the cavity in determining the coordination number. Inferences on the enzyme-substrate interactions are presented.
