Characterisation of cDNA clones for rat muscle carbonic anhydrase III.
نویسندگان
چکیده
cDNA clones for rat muscle carbonic anhydrase III have been isolated from a lambda gt-11 library and sequenced. Comparison with human CAIII cDNA showed about 90% homology to rat. The rat clones were used to estimate mRNA from liver and muscle on Northern blots and showed that the sexual dimorphism of CAIII in rat liver relates to a difference in mRNA levels.

Carbonic anhydrase III protects cells from hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis.
Carbonic anhydrase III (CA III; EC 4.2.1.1) is a cytoplasmic enzyme that exhibits a relatively low carbon dioxide hydratase activity. It is expressed at a very high level in skeletal muscle, where physical exercise has been shown to increase free radical production. In this work we show the effect of overexpression of CA III on cellular response to oxidative stress. Rat CA III cDNA was transfec...
متن کاملCarbohydrate utilization in rat soleus muscle is influenced by carbonic anhydrase III activity.
Inhibition of carbonic anhydrase III (CA III; EC 4.2.1.1 ) activity in type I muscle can influence resistance to fatigue and glycogen utilization. Our aim was to determine if CA III inhibition could influence muscle pH and glycolytic rate. Muscle pH, hexosemonophosphates (HMP), glycolytic intermediates, ATP, and creatine phosphate (CP) were measured at rest and during a fatigue protocol in rat ...
متن کاملCloned cDNA for rabbit erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase I: A novel erythrocyte-specific probe to study development in erythroid tissues.
Present understanding of gene expression in erythropoietic tissues is derived solely from studies of the globin genes. Of the three distinct carbonic anhydrase (carbonate dehydratase; carbonate hydro-lyase, EC 4.2.1.1) isozymes, carbonic anhydrase I is erythrocyte-specific and, in humans, is under developmental control. The appearance of carbonic anhydrase I in the erythrocyte late in fetal lif...
متن کاملTestosterone-induced, sulfonamide-resistant carbonic anhydrase isozyme of rat liver is indistinguishable from skeletal muscle carbonic anhydrase III.
Three isozymes of carbonic anhydrase, CA I, CA II and CA III, have been characterized from the tissues of a variety of vertebrate species. CA I (low-activity, sulfonamide-sensitive form) has been found mainly in red cells but also occurs in other tissues (e.g., rumen epithelium, caecum, colonic mucosa, pituitary gland, ciliary body), CA II (high-activity, sulfonamide-sensitive form) is found in...
متن کاملHydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase III from bovine skeletal muscle.
We report three experiments which show that the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase III from bovine skeletal muscle occurs at a site on the enzyme different than the active site for CO2 hydration. This is in contrast with isozymes I and II of carbonic anhydrase for which the sites of 4-nitrophenyl acetate hydrolysis and CO2 hydration are the same. The pH profile ...
