CA8 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 314 amino acids (1-290) and having a molecular mass of 35.5kDa. CA8 is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. CA8 was first called CA-related protein since there is a sequence similarity to other identified carbonic anhydrase genes. Still, this protein has no carbonic anhydrase activity - the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. CA8 still holds a carbonic anhydrase designation due to obvious sequence similarity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. Mutations in CA8 result in cerebellar ataxia mental retardation and dysequilibrium syndrome type 3 (CMARQ3).
