Overexpression of carbonic anhydrase 1 in pterygium
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a kind of zinc enzyme that reversibly catalyzes hydration of CO2. Sixteen CAisoenzymes have been described in mammals . These isozymes play physiological roles in erythrocytes, including CO2 transport, ion secretion, pH regulation and so forth. CA1 and 2 are both cytosolic...

Summary: | Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a kind of zinc enzyme that reversibly catalyzes hydration of CO2. Sixteen CAisoenzymes have been described in mammals . These isozymes play physiological roles in erythrocytes, including CO2 transport, ion secretion, pH regulation and so forth. CA1 and 2 are both cytosolic enzymes that are found in large quantities in erythrocytes. Excluding hemoglobin, CA I is the most abundant protein in erythrocytes |
