Summary: Enables carbonate dehydratase activity. Involved in positive regulation of dipeptide transmembrane transport and regulation of intracellular pH. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including carbon dioxide transport; positive regulation of GABAergic synaptic transmission; and positive regulation of cellular pH reduction. Located in cytosol and myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; heart; metanephros; and sensory organ. Used to study autosomal recessive osteopetrosis 3. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive osteopetrosis 3 and osteopetrosis. Orthologous to human CA2 (carbonic anhydrase 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
