Calcium-binding membrane-bound proteins are present in the vertebrate eye lens. Among these proteins are a distinct group of immunologically related extrinsic EDTA-extractable proteins (EEP) and calmodufin. The EEP proteins contain calciumbinding sites with a total capacity of 25 tool Ca 2 § per mol

## Calcium ions act as modulators of many fundamental processes in eukaryotic cells. Although these processes apparently involve initial interactions between calcium ions and cell membranes, the identity of the putative membrane Caz+binding proteins has until recently been obscure. This article de
Calcium binding to spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) stromal proteins was examined by dual-wavelength spectrophotometry using the metallochromic indicator tetramethylmurexide. The data are consistent with the existence of at least two, probably independent, classes of binding sites. The total number of
