spectrin
brain isoform alpha chain
no species information The conformational change between apo and two calcium ions bound states involves:
  • Spectrin exhibits calcium-dependent opening in a calmodulin-like manner.
This paper reports the apo and calcium-loaded NMR structures of the EF-hand pair from alpha-spectrin. However, the coordinates of these structures still have not been deposited in the Brookhave Protein DataBank.
