Recombinant humanCarbonic Anhydrase 13/CA13 protein
CA13 also known as carbonic anhydrase 13 belongs to the alpha-carbonic anhydrase family. The carbonic anhydrase from a family of enzymes that catalyze the rapid interconversion of carbon dioxide and water to bicarbonate and protons, a reversible reaction that occurs relatively slowly in the absence of catalyst. The active site of most carbonic anhydrases contains a zinc ion; they are claasified as metalloenzymes. There are at least five distinct CA families (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon) . These families have no significant amino acid sequence similarity and in most cases are thought to be an example of convergent evolution. The alpha-CAs are found in humans. Recombinant human CA13, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
