Developmental stage

At 6 weeks gestation, transcripts accumulate at low levels in the somites and at high levels throughout the notochord. As gestation continues, CA3 becomes abundant in all developing muscle masses and continues at high to moderate levels in the notochord.

Function

Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide.

Post-translational modifications

S-thiolated both by thiol-disulfide exchange with glutathione disulfide and by oxyradical-initiated S-thiolation with reduced glutathione.

S-glutathionylated in hepatocytes under oxidative stress.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the alpha-carbonic anhydrase family.

Tissue specificity

Muscle specific.
