Secondary Information

Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells found in a number of animal tissues, including kidney and brain
Protein Function catalyses the hydration of carbon dioxide and the dehydration of bicarbonate ions; participates in physiological systems such as respiration, acid-base balance, ion transport, bone resorption, signal transduction, ureagenesis, gluconeogenesis, and lipogenesis; Bovine carbonic anhydrase acts as a powerful competitive inhibitor of the reduction of cytochrome c by xanthine oxidase.  CA4-like was positioned to catalyze the conversion of HCO3- to CO2 in the ambient seawater which would facilitate CO2 uptake. 
Biochemical Properties Mammalian carbonic anhydrases can be divided into two groups according to their catalytic efficiencies in respect of the reactions between carbon dioxide, bicarbonate and water; presence of high proportion of proline residues, acidic and basic residues, and few sulphur-containing residues; bromide, iodide and nitrate inhibited the enzyme more strongly than did either acetate or chloride; Ki for carbonic anhydrase decreased with increasing pH, whereas K, for cytochrome c varied in the opposite fashion; ∆Hº for the reaction of carbonic anhydrase with xanthine oxidase is very close to 0.0 kcal per mole.
