AN active inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase found in the sera of pig and other mammals, was briefly described in a recent note [Booth, 1936]. Carbonic anhydrase is normally found only in corpuscles, and its absence from the plasma has distinct advantages in the regulation of the blood pH in vivo [Roughton, 1935]. The function of the inhibitor was thought to be a protective one in that it provides a temporary mechanism for ensuring that any carbonic anhydrase which may be set free into the circulating plasma as a result of corpuscle destruction does not annul these advantages. Much of the force of this suggestion was lost on finding that the inhibitor is not present in the blood of man. However, even though the inhibitory activity of serum may be accidental it was considered of interest to study (a) the kinetic relations of the inhibitor to the enzyme, (b) its own chemical nature, and (c) its distribution.
