Determination of Significance:
Carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC4.2.1.1) is a metalloenzyme with Zn2+ as the active center, which can efficiently catalyze the reversible hydration reaction of CO2: CO2+H2O ?HCO3-+H+ at a rate 107 times higher than that under natural conditions, which is one of the fastest known enzymes. It is one of the fastest known enzymes.
Measurement Principle:
Carbonic anhydrase can catalyze the reaction of p-nitrophenyl acetate to form p-nitrophenol, and the rate of increase of absorbance value at 405 nm reflects the activity of carbonic anhydrase.
