Bovine Carbonic Anhydrase 1, CA-1 ELI

Carbonic anhydrase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CA1 gene.

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a large family of zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide.

They participate in a variety of biological processes, including cellular respiration, calcification, acid-base balance, bone resorption, and the formation of aqueous humor, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and gastric acid.
