A structure/activity study of cation affinity and selectivity using a synthetic peptide model of the helix-loop-helix calcium-binding motif

The acid pair hypothesis predicts the calcium affinity of the helixloop- helix calcium binding motif based on the number and location of acidic amino acid residues in chelating positions of the calcium-binding loop region. This study investigates the effects of the number and position of acidic...
