abstract：:Simultaneous replacement of Asp-94 with serine and Gly-98 with glutamate in rat alpha-parvalbumin creates a CD-site ligand array in the context of the EF-site binding loop. Previous work has shown that, relative to the wild-type CD site, this engineered site has markedly reduced Ca(2+) affinity. Seeking an explanation...
