Structural highlights
DiseaseCAH2_HUMAN Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] FunctionCAH2_HUMAN Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe promotion of protein dimerization using the aggregation properties of a protein ligand was explored and shown to produce complexes with unusual stoichiometries. Helical foldamer 2 was synthesized and bound to human carbonic anhydrase (HCA) using a nanomolar active site ligand. Crystal structures show that the hydrophobicity of 2 and interactions of its side chains lead to the formation of an HCA2-23 complex in which three helices of 2 are stacked, two of them being linked to an HCA molecule. The middle foldamer in the stack can be replaced by alternate sequences 3 or 5. Solution studies by CD and NMR confirm left-handedness of the helical foldamers as well as HCA dimerization.
