CA6 - carbonic anhydrase 6 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as CA-VI; GUSTIN

Gene ID: 765 | Gene type: protein coding

About CA6

Cytogenetic location: 1p36.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:8,945,868-8,975,092 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 228 orthologues and 14 paralogues. Restricted expression toward salivary gland (RPKM 1381.7).

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is one of several isozymes of Carbonic Anhydrase. This protein is found only in salivary glands and saliva and protein may play a role in the reversible hydratation of carbon dioxide though its function in saliva is unknown. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
