Implication

Highlights evolutionary divergence in invertebrate Ca2+ regulation; leaves open whether analogous complexity shapes mammalian muscle or cardiac proteins.

Population

Crayfish sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein (SCP)

Intervention

Calcium and magnesium binding

Comparator

Vertebrate parvalbumin and invertebrate troponin C

Outcome

Metal-binding properties (calcium and magnesium binding constants, cooperativity, and stability)surrogate

Crayfish sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein exhibits highly complex calcium and magnesium binding properties compared to vertebrate parvalbumin, suggesting different evolutionary adaptations in invertebrate muscle regulation.
