NCIt definition : Human CA8 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q12.1 and is approximately
96 kb in length. This allele, which encodes carbonic anhydrase-related protein, may
be involved in bone homeostasis and cerebellar development. Mutations in the gene
are associated with cerebellar ataxia, mental retardation, and dysequilibrium syndrome
3 (CMARQ3). Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with osteoporosis and overexpression
of the gene is associated with osteosarcoma.;
