Carbonic anhydrate is a zinc-containing metalloenzyme and involved in plant abiotic stress tolerance. In this study, we found that heat stress could induce rice mature carbonic anhydrate gene over-expression in rice plants. An Escherichia coli heterologous expression system was performed to identify the function of rice mature carbonic anhydrate in vitro. By sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), mature OsCA fusion protein was identified and proved to be soluble. The results of spot, survival rate, and growth curve assay demonstrated that the expression of the mature OsCA could enhance the thermo-tolerance of the induced mature OsCA recombinants in comparison with controls under heat stress. Meanwhile, compared with controls, the levels of reactive oxygen species in induced mature OsCA recombinants were apparently low under heat stress, and correspondingly, activities of the critical antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase in the induced mature OsCA recombinants were significantly increased. Additionally, relative to controls, the activity of the lactate dehydrogenasedecreased in the induced mature OsCA recombinants under heat stress. Based on these results, we suggest that mature OsCA protein could confer the E. coli recombinants' tolerance to heat stress by a synergistic fashion of increasing the antioxidant enzymes' activities to reduce the oxidative damage and maintaining the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity of E. coli.
