Description
CA, also known as carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme that functions around the involvement of CO2 + H2O to HCO3- + H+ (conversion of CO2 to bicarbonate & protons). This enzyme holds a Zn ion as part of its active site. The central function of CA is to preserve the acid-base homeostasis within the blood and various organs. carbonic anhydrase assists Carbonic Anhydrase I to move CO2 to and from tissues.
CA1 E Coli Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 240 amino acids (1-220) and having a molecular mass of 27.0 kDa.
CA1 E Coli is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
