Özet
In aqueous media, enzyme–ligand recognition is shaped not only by direct contacts but also by solvent-mediated interaction networks that persist across time scales. Here, cholinesterases (AChE and BChE) and cytosolic human carbonic anhydrases (hCA I and hCA II) were investigated as two disease-relevant enzyme systems in solution, and twelve thiourea–pyrimidine benzenesulfonamide derivatives were synthesized and structurally characterized. Enzyme inhibition was quantified by steady-state kinetics; inhibition constants (KI) were obtained by nonlinear global fitting of untransformed rate data, with Lineweaver–Burk plots used only for visualization. To connect solution-phase inhibition with molecular recognition, docking was validated by redocking (heavy-atom RMSD <2.0 Å across targets), and representative complexes were examined by 500 ns explicit-solvent MD simulations (TIP3P, 0.15 M NaCl …
