Recombinant Human CA7

• Cat.No.: CA7-707H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human CA7 is produced with our E. coli expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Met1-Ala264) of Human CA7.

Specification

• Cat. No.: CA7-707H
• Description: Carbonic anhydrases are a large family of zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. They participate in a variety of biological processes, including respiration, calcification, acid-base balance, bone resorption, and the formation of aqueous humor, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and gastric acid. They show extensive diversity in tissue distribution and in their subcellular localization. The cytosolic protein encoded by this gene is predominantly expressed in the salivary glands. Alternative splicing in the coding region results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Q&As

What distinguishes the enzymatic function of CA7 from other carbonic anhydrase family members?

CA7 facilitates the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide, but its specific kinetics might differ from other isoforms.

How does CA7 contribute to cellular pH balance and metabolism?

CA7 aids in CO2 transport and pH regulation, playing a crucial role in metabolic processes.

Have any diseases or conditions been associated with aberrant CA7 expression or activity?

Dysregulation or mutations in CA7 might influence metabolic balance in tissues, potentially impacting conditions related to liver function or metabolism.

Are there compounds known to specifically inhibit CA7 activity?

While some general carbonic anhydrase inhibitors might affect CA7, isoform-specific inhibitors would require further research.

In which specific human tissues is CA7 expression most prevalent?

CA7 is primarily expressed in the liver, among other tissues.

What post-translational modifications are characteristic of CA7?

Potential modifications like phosphorylation or acetylation can be identified using techniques like mass spectrometry.

Are there any genetic mutations in the CA7 gene known to influence its enzymatic functionality?

Specific mutations could alter CA7's enzyme kinetics or stability, requiring in vitro functional assays for verification.
