Purified CA2 unfolding transition measured by differential scanning calorimetry.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
Zinc-containing CA2 unfolded at 59±0.5°C versus 51±0.5°C for the chelated preparation in differential scanning calorimetry.
Experimental context and source evidence
- cross_nutrient
- false
- experimental_model
- Purified recombinant human CA2 expressed in E. coli; chelation, crystallography, DSC and H/D exchange
- exposure
- Purified apo and holo proteins; DSC in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.0.
- limitations
- Purified recombinant protein; chelation is not dietary deficiency. Approximately 10% zinc remained in the nominal apo preparation. Thermal unfolding temperature is not a body-temperature requirement.
- nutrient_topic
- Zinc research collection; topical membership is not evidence of a direct dietary effect. · Zinc
- organism
- Homo sapiens
- plain_language
- Bound zinc also helps CA2 resist thermal unfolding.
