title: Binding of calcium by fragment 38-108 of pike parvalbumin.
abstract: Cyanogen bromide splitting of pike parvalbumin III was carried out and fragment 38-108 containing two calcium-binding domains was isolated. The obtained fragment binds calcium rather well (Kd = 1.6.10(-5) M), possesses a secondary structure, its CD spectrum changes after removal of calcium.
