Routes to drug design via bioisosterism of carboxyl and sulfonamide groups.

abstract：:Dysregulated metabolism is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Under normal physiological conditions, ATP is primarily generated by oxidative phosphorylation. Cancers commonly undergo a dramatic shift toward glycolysis, despite the presence of oxygen. This phenomenon is known as the Warburg effect, and requires the activi...
