Carbonic anhydrase; metalloenzyme that catalyzes CO2 hydration to bicarbonate, which is an important metabolic substrate, and protons; not expressed under conditions of high CO2, such as inside a growing colony, but transcription is induced in response to low CO2 levels, such as on the colony surface in ambient air; poorly transcribed under aerobic conditions and at an undetectable level under anaerobic conditions; abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three
Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies
(Molecular Function,
Biological Process, and
Cellular Component), a reference, and an
evidence code. SGD has manually curated and high-throughput GO Annotations, both derived from the
literature, as well as computational, or predicted, annotations. Click "Gene Ontology Details" to view
all GO information and evidence for this locus as well as biological processes it shares with other genes.
Summary
Carbonate dehydratase involved in responses to oxidative stress and carbon dioxide; localizes to mitochondrial envelope lumen and to nucleus and cytoplasm in high-throughput studies
Functional Networks display how gene products work together in biological systems. The Shared Annotations
network shows genes with similar GO annotations, suggesting functional relationships. GO-CAMs (Gene
Ontology Causal Activity Models) are manually curated pathway models that illustrate how molecular
activities of multiple gene products connect through causal relationships to carry out biological
processes. GO-CAMs integrate Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component information
into unified pathway representations based on published experimental evidence. Click "View GO-CAM at Gene
Ontology" to explore the interactive model at AmiGO.
Click on a gene or Biological Process GO term name to go to its specific page within SGD; drag any of the gene or GO
term name objects around within the visualization for easier viewing; click “Reset” to automatically redraw the
diagram; filter the genes that share GO Biological Process terms with the given gene by the number of terms they
share by clicking anywhere on the slider bar or dragging the tab to the desired filter number.
Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable
(e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background,
and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput
(e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and
additional details are provided. Click "Phenotype Details" to view all phenotype annotations and
evidence for this locus as well as phenotypes it shares with other genes.

Interaction annotations are curated by BioGRID and include physical

between at least two genes. An interaction annotation is composed of the interaction type, name of the
interactor, assay type (e.g., Two-Hybrid), annotation type (e.g., manual or high-throughput), and a
reference, as well as other experimental details. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction

Summary
NCE103 encodes a carbonic anhydrase that catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide (CO2) to bicarbonate. Intracellular bicarbonate is a substrate for inorganic carboxylation reactions that are key steps in several metabolic pathways, including the conversion of pyruvate to oxoalacetate by pyruvate carboxylase (Cpy1p, Cpy2p), the formation of malonyl-CoA by acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc1p) and the synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate by carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (Cpa1p, Cpa2p, Ura2p). Formation of bicarbonate can also occur spontaneously, but it requires high concentrations of CO2 that are not achievable even in actively fermenting yeast cells. For that reason, the Nce103p activity is essential for growth under conditions of normal atmospheric CO2 pressures and becomes dispensable under high CO2 concentrations, such as inside a growing colony or in a closed anaerobic chemostat, where CO2 produced during fermentation cannot easily escape. Accordingly, NCE103 is transcriptionally regulated in response to CO2 levels. Under normal CO2 concentrations, a bZIP transcription factor Cst6p binds to the TGACGTCA sequence located -285 bp upstream from ATG in the NCE103 promoter and stimulates its transcription. Cst6p is known to relocate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in response to hypoxic conditions. In experiments such conditions are usually created in a closed chemostat, which could presumably lead to elevated CO2 concentrations. As a consequence, it is conceivable that it is the high CO2 levels that trigger the relocation of Cst6p from the nucleus and down-regulation of NCE103 transcription.
Expression data are derived from records contained in the
Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and are first log2
transformed and normalized. Referenced datasets may contain one or more condition(s), and as a result
there may be a greater number of conditions than datasets represented in a single clickable histogram
bar. The histogram division at 0.0 separates the down-regulated (green) conditions and datasets from
those that are up-regulated (red). Click "Expression Details" to view all expression annotations and
details for this locus, including a visualization of genes that share a similar expression pattern.
