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 the use of CAs as markers for tumor and hypoxia in the clinic, as a nutritional supplement in milk, and as a tool for CO2 removal and mosquito control in industry. CA12 is a type I membrane enzyme highly expressed in colon, kidney, prostate, intestine and activated lymphocytes and moderately expressed in pancreas, ovary, and testis (2, 3). It is over-expressed in some renal cell cancers and in glaucoma (2, 4). Two alternatively spliced forms exist, which either contains or lacks a 11 amino acid segment just before the transmembrane domain (5). The secreted, purified recombinant human CA12 contains the residues that are common for both forms.

Protocols
View specific protocols for Recombinant Human Carbonic Anhydrase XII Protein, CF (2190-CA):
- Assay Buffer: 12.5 mM Tris, 75 mM NaCl, pH 7.5
- Recombinant Human Carbonic Anhydrase XII/CA12 (rhCA12) (Catalog # 2190-CA)
- Substrate: 4-Nitrophenyl Acetate (4-NPA) (Sigma, Catalog # N8130), 100 mM stock in acetone
- 96-well Clear Plate (Costar, Catalog # 92592)
- Plate reader (Model: SpectraMax Plus by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rhCA12 to 20 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 2 mM in Assay Buffer.
- In a plate, load 50 µL of 20 ng/µL rhCA12, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 2 mM Substrate to wells. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 2 mM Substrate.
- Read absorbance at a wavelength of 400 nm (bottom read) in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
