- SynonymCAIX,CA9,CA-IX,G250,MN,P54/58N,pMW1
- SourceHuman Carbonic Anhydrase IX (38-414), His Tag (CA9-H5226) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln 38 - Asp 414 (Accession # Q16790-1).Predicted N-terminus: Gln 38Request for sequence
- Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 41.7 kDa. The protein migrates as 45-50 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
- EndotoxinLess than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
- Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 20 mM MES, 100 mM NaCl, pH6.5. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Human Carbonic Anhydrase IX (38-414), His Tag on SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) condition. The gel was stained overnight with Coomassie Blue. The purity of the protein is greater than 95%.
The specific activity is >200 pmol/min/μg, as measured with 4-Nitrophenyl acetate (Routinely tested).
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that hydrolyze 1.0 p mole of 4-Nitrophenyl acetate to 4-Nitrophenol per minute at pH7.5 at Room temperature
- BackgroundCarbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a large family of zinc metalloenzymes. CAs form a family of enzymes that catalyze the rapid interconversion of carbon dioxide and water to bicarbonate and protons (or vice versa), a reversible reaction that occurs rather slowly in the absence of a catalyst. One of the functions of the enzyme in animals is to interconvert carbon dioxide and bicarbonate to maintain acid-base balance in blood and other tissues, and to help transport carbon dioxide out of tissues. The active site of most carbonic anhydrases contains a zinc ion. There are at least five distinct CA families (α, β, γ, δ and ε). Carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9 / CAIX) is also known as Membrane antigen MN (MN), Renal cell carcinoma-associated antigen G250, which belongs to the alpha-carbonic anhydrase family. CA9 / CAIX with an optimal activity at pH 6.49. Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. CA IX participates in pH regulation. CA9 may be involved in the control of cell proliferation and transformation. CA-IX appears to be a novel specific biomarker for a cervical neoplasia.
