Carbonic anhydrase seems to be not only a catalyst in calcification but also a vehicle for the translocation of reserve calcium. In the mantle of freshwater clams, for instance, the ratio of bound to free calcium ions is in the order of 10 to 127S 276. A series of experiments revealed that the dynamic equilibrium between the pools of ionized and combined calcium is entirely controlled by carbonic anhydrase.

The similarity in the effects of a given solute on homologous biochemical systems from species with widely different intracellular osmolalities is shown by the data in the upper-right panel of figure 6.3.
