Cloning, Characterization and Anion Inhibition Studies of a β-Carbonic Anhydrase from the Pathogenic Protozoan <em>Entamoeba histolytica</em>

We report the cloning and catalytic activity of a β-carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1), isolated from the pathogenic protozoan <i>Entamoeba histolytica</i>, EhiCA. This enzyme has a high catalytic activity for the physiologic CO<sub>2</sub> hydration reaction, with a k<su...
