  • Function
    Weakly binds calcium but binds zinc very tightly-distinct binding sites with different affinities exist for both ions on each monomer. Physiological concentrations of potassium ion antagonize the binding of both divalent cations, especially affecting high-affinity calcium-binding sites.
  • Tissue specificity
    Highly prevalent in heart. Also found in lesser quantities in skeletal muscle and brain.
  • Sequence similarities
    Belongs to the S-100 family.
    Contains 2 EF-hand domains.
  • Cellular localization
    Cytoplasm.
  • Information by UniProt
