The relationship between carbonic anhydrase and calcification in the gorgonian Leptogorgia virgulata was examined by analysis of the enzyme's activity, its cellular locations and its response to inhibition by Diamox. Enzyme activity was 2.7 nmol pg-' protein s-' at 4°C. Carbonic anhydrase localizati

## Abstract Carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9), as one of the most hypoxia‐responsive genes, has been associated almost exclusively with hypoxic tumors. Its principal role is in pH regulation which helps tumor cells overcome intracellular acidosis and survive extended periods of time with low oxygen. Hypox
The mechanism of inorganic-carbon (Ci) accumulation in the red seaweed Gracilaria tenuistipitata Zhang et Xia has been investigated. Extracellular and intracellular carbonic-anhydrase (CA) activities have been detected. Photosynthetic 02 evolution in thalli and protoplasts of G. tenuistipitata were
## Abstract A sensitive pH‐stat assay was used to determine the distribution in aquatic and terrestrial decapod crustaceans, correlation to osmoregulation, and selected kinetic properties of carbonic anhydrase. In all species the enzyme was concentrated in the gills, and specifically the posterior
In the present study, we investigated the role of the extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) in regulation of the hypoxia marker, carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX). U0126, a specific inhibitor of MEK1/2, downregulated CAIX expression induced by true hypoxia and cell density. CA9 promoter act
