Carbonic Anhydrase, Superoxide dismutase enzyme activity is related with which element?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
Carbonic Anhydrase and superoxide dismutase enzyme activity are related to the Zinc element.
Zinc activates enzymes of protein metabolism, and is a part of carbonate dehydratase, and superoxide dismutase.
The zinc ion creates the catalytic center in Superoxide dismutase.
Carbonate dehydratases form a family of enzymes that catalyzes the interconversion between carbon dioxide and water and dissociated ions of carbonic acid. The active site of most carbonic anhydrases contains a zinc ion.
