| Abstract | Rat carbonic anhydrase (CA) IV was purified by affinity chromatography and used to produce a specific antiserum in rabbits for immunolocalization studies in rat kidney. CA IV was localized in apical plasma membranes of the proximal convoluted tubule and the thick ascending limb of Henle. Both of these segments are involved in bicarbonate reabsorption in the rat. Immunofluorescent staining of the brush border was faint in the S1 segment, greatest in the S2 segment, and absent from the S3 segment of the proximal tubule. CA IV was also detected in the basolateral plasma membrane of proximal-tubule and thick-ascending-limb epithelial cells by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy. In the proximal tubule, an extracellular membrane CA had been previously suggested on the basis of electrophysiological studies. CA IV was not detected in intercalated cells of the collecting ducts. These cells contain, in contrast, abundant cytosolic CA II. Thus, the distribution of CA IV is quite distinct from that of CA II; it corresponds with the localization of an isoenzyme(s) that did not stain with antibodies against CA II but that was revealed by histochemical-staining procedures. We conclude that the apical CA IV is the luminal CA responsible for bicarbonate reabsorption in the proximal tubule and the thick ascending limb in the rat kidney. These studies also suggest that CA IV plays a role in bicarbonate transport across the basolateral plasma membrane in these two segments of the rat nephron. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
