| sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein |
Nereis diversicolor (sandworm) |
This protein binds 3 equivalents of Ca ion | This is an excellent mini-review of SCPs. The number of ions bound to Nereis and Amphioxus SCPs were determined from their crystal strucutres. Based on homology, most SCPs are predicted to bind 3 calcium ions, but some are thought to bind only 2. |

Branchiostoma lanceolatum (amphioxus or common lancelet) |
