- Description
- Exhibits carbonate dehydratase activity. Involved in several processes, including carbon dioxide transport; hypotonic salinity response; and sodium ion import across plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive osteopetrosis 3 and osteopetrosis. Is expressed in several structures, including gill; integument; nervous system; neural tube; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human CA2 (carbonic anhydrase 2).
