چکیده

It was previously reported that magnesium ion inhibited carbonic anhydrase (Bamberger and Avron 1975 Plant Physiol 56: 481-485). Studies with partially purified carbonic anhydrase from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts show that the effect was the result of the chloride counterion and not the magnesium ion. Enzyme activity was reduced 50% upon addition of 3 to 10 millimolar MgCl(2) or KCl while all additions of MgSO(4) between 0.3 and 10 millimolar were mildly stimulatory.

Study of Glycation Process of Human Carbonic Anhydrase II and Investigation of Effect of Fasting On Enzyme Activity by Using Spectroscopic Methods

Background: Glycation is the non-enzymatic reaction between the carbonyl groups in sugar and free amino groups in proteins. this reaction leads to changes in structure and functions of proteins. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is the final stage in this process, which is highly oxidizing and destructive nature, causing many diabetic complications. Methods: In the present investigation, ...

Investigation of solvent effect on the active site energy of Carbonic Anhydrase and Ribonucleotide Reductase

Enzymes catalyze many biological reactions. The rates of chemical reaction in the presence ofenzymes are, in some cases, accelerated more than 10 orders of magnitude relative to thecorresponding rates in solution.In this paper a comparison between optimized structures of two enzyme molecules in aspect ofenergy and dipole moment in different conditions including presence of metallic ion, without...

Effect of long-term oral administration of extra thyroxine on oviductal expression of carbonic anhydrase and avidin-related protein-2 genes in broiler breeder hens

Avian sperm are stored in the sperm storage tubules (SSTs) of the hen oviduct for a prolonged period. The impact of avidin-related protein-2 (AVRP2) and carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) in sperm viability in the SSTs has been suggested. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of oral administration of a high dose of thyroxine on the oviductal expression of AVRP2<...

pH Dependence Study of the Kinetic Reaction of Bovine Carbonic Anhydrase with 2,2'-Dithiobispyridine in the Absence and Presence of Surfactants

The pH dependence study reveals that the Cys 206 sulphydryl group of bovine carbonicanhydrase in the native form is not exposed. During the reaction of 2,2'-dithiobispyridine (2-DTP) with the enzyme, there was no absorbance change recorded. In the presence ofsurfactants, the pH dependence profiles of the apparent second order rate constants, kapp, forthe reaction of 2-DTP with bovine carbonic a...

Identification and localization of carbonic anhydrase in two chlorella species.

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity and localization have been examined in two species of the eukaryotic green alga Chlorella. Mass spectrometric and potentiometric assays of CA activity indicate that C. ellipsoidea contains very little extracellular CA activity whereas C. saccharophila exhibits significant extracellular activity when grown at alkaline pH values. Extracellular CA activity appears ...
