Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are ubiquitously distributed and are grouped into three structurally independent classes (αCA, βCA and γCA). Most αCA enzymes are monomeric, but αCA1 from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a dimer that is uniquely stabilized by disulfide bonds. In addition, during maturation an...
