Carbonic anhydrase (CA) catalyzes the reversible reaction of CO2 + H2O = HCO3- + H+, which is fundamental to many processes such as respiration, renal tubular acidification and bone resorption (1). Topics in a CA meeting (6th International Conference on the CAs, June 20‑25, 2003, Slovakia) ranged from use of CAs as markers for tumor and hypoxia in clinic, as nutritional supplement in milk, and as a tool for CO2 removal and mosquito control in industry. The deduced amino acid sequence of mouse CA4 consists of a signal peptide (residues 1‑17), an ectodomain (residues 18‑277) and a pro peptide (residues 278‑305), which is removed in the mature form (2). The native enzyme is attached to the membrane by a GPI‑anchor. Recombinant mouse CA4 corresponds to the ectodomain and exhibits the activity as described in Activity Assay Protocol.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 Antibody
Detection of Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of mouse kidney tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.25 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2414) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 at approximately 35 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 in Mouse Kidney.
Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse kidney using Goat Anti-Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2414) at 3 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in epithelial cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.
Detection of Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 by Simple WesternTM.
Simple Western lane view shows lysates of mouse lung tissue and mouse kidney tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 at approximately 51-52 kDa (as indicated) using 12.5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2414) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.
Detection of Carbonic Anhydrase IV/CA4 by Western Blot
Basal pH level and ability to capacitate of CAII−/− CAIV−/− sperm is not altered.A, immunoblots were performed with protein extracts from untreated or capacitated sperm from WT (+/+) and CAII−/− CAIV−/− (−/−) mice. CAII−/−CAIV−/− sperm do not show any changes in the protein phosphorylation pattern induced by capacitation (Cap) compared with WT sperm. B, CAII−/− CAIV−/− sperm do not show any defects in intracellular alkalization upon stimulation with ammonium chloride. Sperm of both WT (black trace) and CAII−/− CAIV−/− (gray trace) mice were perfused continuously with HS buffer and 10 mm ammonium chloride as indicated. Shown are averaged normalized traces of 34 WT and 39 CAII−/− CAIV−/− sperm of two animals, respectively. A.U., arbitrary units. C, CAII−/− sperm show a reduced CAIV protein level, whereas the amount of CAII protein in sperm from CAIV−/− mice corresponds to that of WT mice.
