Functional diversity, conservation, and convergence in the evolution of the alpha-, beta-, and gamma-carbonic anhydrase gene families.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Feb 1996

Hewett-Emmett D, Tashian R E

Abstract excerpt

The carbonic anhydrases (CA) catalyze with high efficiency the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide, a reaction underlying many diverse physiological processes in animals, plants, archaebacteria, and eubacteria. We examined the evolutionary history and functional convergence of the CAs encoded by members of three independent CA gene families (alpha-CA, beta-CA and gamma-CA). Surprisingly, the six mammalian...
