Localization of putative carbonic anhydrases in the marine diatom, Thalassiosira pseudonana.

Thirteen putative carbonic anhydrase (CA) genes have been identified in the marine multipolar centric diatom, Thalassiosira pseudonana, and two of these CAs have been localized previously. The first, an alpha CA (TpαCA1), was localized in the chloroplast stroma; the second, a zeta-type CA (TpζCA1), was localized to the periplasmic space. In the present study, cloning and localization of the remaining CAs were carried out.
