CA8, 1-290aa, Human, His tag, E.coli (Bioactivity Validated)
Description
Purity: > 90% by SDS - PAGE Format: Liquid. 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0) containing 20% glycerol, 1mM DTT. CA8 was initially named CA-related protein because of sequence similarity to other known carbonic anhydrase genes. However, this protein lacks carbonic anhydrase activity (i.e., the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide). It continues to carry a carbonic anhydrase designation based on clear sequence identity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. Defects in CA8 are the cause of cerebellar ataxia mental retardation and dysequilibrium syndrome type 3 (CMARQ3). Recombinant human CA8 protein fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
