Fragment screening is a powerful tool to identify and characterize binding pockets in proteins. We herein present the results of a proof-of-concept screening campaign of a versatile 96-entry fragment library from our laboratory against the drug target and model protein human carbonic anhydrase II. The screening revealed a novel chemotype for carbonic anhydrase inhibition, as well as less common non-covalent interaction types and unexpected covalent linkages. Lastly, different runs of the PanDDA tool reveal a practical hint for its application.
