Diversity of conformational states and changes within the EF-hand protein superfamily

The EF‐hand motif, which assumes a helix‐loop‐helix structure normally responsible for Ca2+ binding, is found in a large number of functionally diverse Ca2+ binding proteins collectively known as the EF‐hand protein superfamily. In many superfamily members, Ca2+ binding induces a conformational chan...
