Gene Information

human ... CA8(767)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human CA8

Biochem/physiol Actions

CA8 was initially named CA-related protein because of sequence similarity to other known carbonic anhydrase genes. However, CA8 lacks carbonic anhydrase activity (i.e., the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide). CA8 continues to carry a carbonic anhydrase designation based on clear sequence identity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. The protein encoded by this gene was initially named CA-related protein because of sequence similarity to other known carbonic anhydrase genes. However, the gene product lacks carbonic anhydrase activity (i.e., the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide). The gene product continues to carry a carbonic anhydrase designation based on clear sequence identity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. The absence of CA8 gene transcription in the cerebellum of the lurcher mutant in mice with a neurologic defect suggests an important role for this acatalytic form.

Carbonic anhydrase 8 (CA8) is an isozyme of α-carbonic anhydrases (CAs). Previous studies showed that CA8 can be detected in human adult brain, with more intense expression in the cerebellum. Single mutations in CA8 were reported to cause novel syndromes

Mammalian carbonic anhydrase (α-CA) gene family comprises sixteen isoforms, thirteen of which are active isozymes and three isoforms lack classical CA activity of reversible hydration of CO(2) due to absence of one or more histidine residues required for CA catalytic

Increased expression of carbonic anhydrase-related protein (CA-RP) VIII has previously been shown in colorectal carcinoma. Since CA-RP has no catalytic carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity, the present study attempted to elucidate its biological significance in colon cancer cells. From a colon
