Gene information for CA10 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID56934
Official gene symbolCA10
Full namecarbonic anhydrase X
Aliases,CA-RPX,CARPX,HUCEP-15,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that belongs to the carbonic anhydrase family of zinc metalloenzymes, which catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide in various biological processes. The protein encoded by this gene is an acatalytic member of the alpha-carbonic anhydrase subgroup, and it is thought to play a role in the central nervous system, especially in brain development. Multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
