Carbonic anhydrase. Purification and nature of the enzyme
Biochemical Journal · 1940 · Vol. 34(8-9) · pp. 1163–1176
Abstract
2 described a new enzyme present in red blood corpuscles which catalyses both phases of the reversible reaction: H2CO3, CO2 + H20. They purified this enzyme from mam- malian erythrocytes and gave a detailed account of its properties and the kinetics of the reactions which it catalyses. The greatly purified enzyme preparation obtained by them had a very high catalytic activity, was a colourless substance free from haematin and from other known enzymes, stable within pH 3-12, thermolabile, and very sensitive to KCN, H2S, NaN3 and to several heavy metals.
