Carbonic anhydrase 6 (also called ‘Gustin’) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CA6 gene.The protein encoded by this gene is one of several isozymes of carbonic anhydrase. This protein is abundantly found in salivary glands and saliva and protein may play a role in the reversible hydratation of carbon dioxide though its function in saliva is unknown.
