Disease relevance of CA8

 

High impact information on CA8

 

Chemical compound and disease context of CA8

  • Arpp, a protein containing an ankyrin repeat domain, PEST sequence, and proline-rich region, is a novel ankyrin-repeated protein highly homologous to Carp, which is proposed to be the putative genetic marker for cardiac hypertrophy [7].
 

Biological context of CA8

 

Anatomical context of CA8

  • A recently reported mRNA, encoding 'carbonic anhydrase-related polypeptide' (CARP) from the Purkinje cells of mouse cerebellum, was shown to have a 30-40% deduced amino acid sequence identity with the carbonic anhydrases (CA) of mammals [9].
  • On the other hand, in adult cardiac muscle, interestingly, Arpp was expressed in ventricles mostly, whereas Carp was expressed throughout the atrium and ventricle [7].
  • Since ATP is the major organic phosphate in the erythrocytes of many fish, the binding of ATP to a representative fish hemoglobin (Carp I) was investigated [11].
  • Furthermore, although Carp was identified in fetal heart at 11 developmental weeks, Arpp was very low or undetectable in these fetal hearts [7].
  • Less than 5% of epithelial cells in normal colonic mucosae (n = 73) were CA-RP VIII-positive and these were localized to the deep part of the cryptal epithelium [12].
