Background

Carbonic Anhydrase (CA) catalyzes the reversible reaction of CO₂ + H₂O = HCO₃^- + H⁺, which is fundamental to many processes such as respiration, renal tubular acidification and bone resorption (1). Topics in a CA meeting (6^th International Conference on the CAs, June 20‑25, 2003, Slovakia) ranged from the use of CAs as markers for tumor and hypoxia in the clinic, as a nutritional supplement in milk, and as a tool for CO₂ removal and mosquito control in industry. Carbonic Anhydrase VB encoded by the CA5B gene is a mitochondrial protein. In comparison with another mitochondrial CA (CA5A), CA5B has different tissue distribution and chromosomal location (2, 3). The amino acid sequence of human CA5B (residues 34 to 317) is 94%, 93%, 92%, and 74% identical to that of canine, mouse, bovine/rat, and chicken.
