Frame the target before identity details

Structured disease, protein, and project context should read before the lower-level identity rail.

As of 2026-09-14

Carbonic anhydrase shows approved-linked disease relevance led by epilepsy. 1 more disease program remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P00918. Start with epilepsy, then reuse UniProt P00918 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

Disease program
epilepsy

Carbonic anhydrase shows approved-linked disease relevance led by epilepsy. 1 more disease program remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with epilepsy because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include SULTHIAME. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
