Summary
Enables carbonate dehydratase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including carbon dioxide transport; hypotonic salinity response; and sodium ion import across plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including gill; integument; nervous system; neural tube; and pleuroperitoneal region. 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.
