Inhibition of 13 mammalian isoforms of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1), CA I-XV, with thioxolone (6-hydroxy-1,3-benzoxathiol-2-one) and two sulfonamides was investigated. Thioxolone was inefficient for generating isozyme-selective inhibitors, since except for CA I which is inhibited in the
