Abstract excerpt
Carbonic anhydrase 8 (CA8), an isozyme of α-carbonic anhydrases, lacks the ability to catalyze the reversible hydration of CO2 to bicarbonate and proton. Previous studies have shown that single point mutations of CA8, CA8-S100P, and CA8-G162R, are associated with novel syndromes including congenital ataxia and mild cognitive impairment. Our previous results demonstrated that overexpression of wild type (WT) CA8...
