Carbonic Anhydrase (Ca) and X-Protein(X-p) Types in Turkish Sheep Breeds

Secretory carbonic anhydrase isoenzyme (CA VI) in human serum.

Carbonic anhydrase VI (CA VI) is a secretory isoenzyme that, by analogy to alpha-amylase, is produced in the salivary glands and delivered into saliva. To determine whether CA VI is transferred into the circulation and is detectable in human serum, we collected blood samples from four healthy subjects at 3-h intervals throughout a 24-h period and measured concentrations of CA VI by a specific t...

Measurement of erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase isozymes (CA-I and CA-II) in racehorses and riding horses.

Equine carbonic anhydrase isozymes (CA-I and CA-II) were purified from erythrocytes by several column chromatography. Polyclonal anti-CA-I and anti-CA-II sera were produced in rabbits. Sensitive competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were established to determine the developmental changes in CA-I and CA-II levels in equine erythrocytes. Concentrations of CA-I and CA-II in erythr...

Amino acid sequence of sheep carbonic anhydrase C.

The sequence of amino acid residues comprising the major form of sheep red cell carbonic anhydrase C has been determined. The primary sequences of peptides derived from cyanogen bromide cleavage and tryptic digestion were obtained primarily through the use of the Edman degradation procedure. The ordering of these peptides in the sheep molecule is based on the high degree of homology between the...

Red cells genetically deficient in carbonic anhydrase II have elevated levels of a carbonic anhydrase indistinguishable from muscle CA III.

Gastric Carbonic Anhydrase In

Davenport and Fisher (1938) reported the discovery DOGS P School of Medicine of large amounts of carbonic anhydrase in the gastric mucosa of cats, rats and rabbits. Davenport (1939) demonstrated that carbonic anhydrase is present in high concentration in the parietal cells and in lower concentration in the cells of the surface epithelium of the gastric mucosa of cats and rats. When those invest...
