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. CA13 is a cytosolic enzyme with a unique and widespread distribution pattern as compared to the other cytosolic CAs, indicating that it may play important physiological roles in several organs (2).

Protocols
View specific protocols for Recombinant Human Carbonic Anhydrase XIII Protein, CF (2194-CA):
Materials
- Assay Buffer: 12.5 mM Tris, 75 mM NaCl, pH 7.5
- Recombinant Human Carbonic Anhydrase XIII/CA13 (rhCA13) (Catalog # 2194-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 rhCA13 to 100 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 2.0 mM in Assay Buffer.
- In a plate load 50 µL of 100 ng/µL rhCA13, and include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer.
- Start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 2.0 mM Substrate to wells containing rhCA13 and Assay Buffer.
- Read at a wavelength of 400 nm (bottom read) in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
