Carbonic anhydrase 4is anenzymethat in humans is encoded by theCA4gene.

Function

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a large family of zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. They participate in a variety of biological processes, including respiration, calcification, acid-base balance, bone resorption, and the formation of aqueous humor, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and gastric acid. They show extensive diversity in tissue distribution and in their subcellular localization. CA IV is a glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol-anchored membrane isozyme expressed on the luminal surfaces of pulmonary (and certain other) capillaries and of proximal renal tubules. Its exact function is not known, however, it may have a role in inherited renal abnormalities of bicarbonate transport.

CA IV has been identified in pulmonary epithelium of many mammalian species and may be uniquely adaptive for gas exchange necessary for the high metabolic requirements of mammals. A majority of the CO₂produced by metabolism is transported as bicarbonate (HCO⁻
₃). At the tissue capillary, CO₂diffuses from tissue to plasma. Other forms of carbonic anhydrase enzyme are not present in the plasma, restricting the equilibrium reaction of CO₂+H₂O=H
₂CO
₃= H+HCO⁻
₃.CO₂in the plasma diffuses into the Red Blood Cell. CA is present within the Red Blood Cell, facilitating the conversion of CO₂toHCO⁻
₃.HCO⁻
₃so produced is transferred by theHCO⁻
₃/Cl- "shuttle" from the interior of the Red Blood Cell to the plasma.HCO⁻
₃does not diffuse across cell membranes and, in the absence of CA, stays asHCO⁻
₃and concentrates in plasma. Up to 80% of metabolically produced CO₂is transported in plasma in the form ofHCO⁻
₃.Blood moves from the tissue capillary to the pulmonary capillary where CO₂is exchanged at the lung. In the pulmonary capillary, bicarbonate can not simply diffuse either into the Red Blood Cell or the alveoli. It is traditionally thought thatHCO⁻
₃is returned to the interior of the Red Blood Cell by a reversal of theHCO⁻
₃/Cl- shuttle, where, in the presence of CA, it is returned to a CO₂form to diffuse from the interior of the Red Blood Cell, to the plasma and then into the alveoli. Membrane bound CA (CA IV) on the luminal side of the pulmonary membrane would have direct contact with plasmaHCO⁻
₃and would enzymatically convertHCO⁻
₃to CO₂in the area immediately proximal to the exchange membrane, greatly increasing the concentration gradient for exchange. In this way, plasmaHCO⁻
₃can be converted to CO₂within the plasma compartment and exchanged with the alveoli without the requirement of returning theHCO⁻
₃to the interior of the Red Blood Cell.
