Histidine triad (HIT) proteins were until recently a superfamily of proteins that shared only sequence motifs. Crystal structures of nucleotide-bound forms of histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein (Hint) demonstrated that the conserved residues in HIT proteins are responsible for their distinct
## Abstract The coordination structures of Ca^2+^ ion bound to synthetic peptide analogues of the calcium‐binding site III of rabbit skeletal muscle troponin C (TnC) were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The region of the COO^−^ antisymmetric stretching vibration prov
2؉ -binding loops bind 0 or 1 Ca 2؉ ion per protein molecule, depending on the degree of inactivation. These findings fully agree with previously reported results obtained by flow dialysis experiments. The RP-HPLC desalted metal-free proteins were analyzed in 10 mM ammonium acetate at pH 7.0. The ex
