alpha-Crystallin, a multimeric protein, exhibits chaperone-like activity in preventing aggregation of several proteins. We have studied the chaperone-like activity of alpha-crystallin toward heat-induced aggregation of bovine and human carbonic anhydrase. Human carbonic anhydrase aggregates at 60 degrees C, while bovine carbonic anhydrase does not aggregate significantly at this temperature. Re...

carbonic anhydrase III with an estimated purity of greater than 95%, as judged by electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels. Ion-exchange chromatography and salt fractionation were used to purify the bovine carbonic anhydrase 111. Bovine muscle was homogenized and adjusted t o 40% saturation with (NH4)*S04. The supernatant was applied t o a DEAE-cellulose column (2.5cm x 25...

A series of benzimidazo[1,2-c][1,2,3]thiadiazole-7-sulfonamides were synthesized and their binding to two carbonic anhydrase isozymes measured by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Human carbonic anhydrase I (hCAI) and bovine carbonic anhydrase II (bCAII) bound the inhibitors with observed association constants in the range from 1.1 x 10(6) to 2.6 x 10(7) M(-1).

We compare the effect of buffers on the catalysis by bovine carbonic anhydrase, human carbonic anhydrase C (HCA 0, and human carbonic anhydrase B (HCA B) of two types of ‘“0 exchange. Type I, resulting from the hydrationdehydration reaction, is the exchange of IsO between CO, and water. Type II is the exchange of IsO between ‘*Ccontaining and ‘“C-containing species of COZ. Imidazole, 2,4-lutidi...

PURPOSE Carbonic anhydrases play a central buffering role in current models of fluid transport in corneal endothelium, but in humans, clinical use of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) for the management of glaucoma does not cause corneal swelling. This study compares species differences in response to CAIs in human versus bovine corneal endothelial transport. METHODS Short-circuit current ...

The blood serum of the European flounder Platichthys flesus strongly inhibits soluble erythrocytic carbonic anhydrase from the same species. The inhibition is of the uncompetitive type. Hence, the mechanism of the carbonic anhydrase inhibition is different from that of all other known carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. The serum showed no inhibitory effect on carbonic anhydrase from human and bovin...

Human carbonic anhydrase C and bovine carbonic anhydrase B were modified with the affinity label, bromoacetazolamide, and human carbonic anhydrase B with N-bromoacetylacetazolamide. Tryptic peptides from the modified enzymes, containing alkylated histidines, have been isolated by ion exchange and two-dimensional high voltage electrophoresispaper chromatography. The partial amino acid sequence o...
