Oncomodulin and parvalbumin contain three EF-hands, of which the first is nonfunctional and unpaired. The helices of EF1 are antiparallel to each other. EF2 and EF3 are positioned similarly to the open conformation observed in Ca2+-CaM and Ca2+-TnC. The second helix of EF3 is one residue shorter than the standard used for all VGM calculations shown here, thus the corresponding value of omega is not valid. |

Extracellular BM40's two EF-hands are positioned similarly to those of Ca2+-CaM, even though the interhelical loop of EF1 contains a one-residue insertion. The second helices of both EF-hands are shorter than the standard length used in VGM calculations; omega values are not valid. |

SCP contains four EF-hands, of which EF1, EF3 and EF4 bind Ca2+ in the structure shown; all SCPs bind Ca2+ at EF1 and EF3, and some bind at EF2 instead of EF4. The lack of Ca2+ ion at EF2 may be energetically unfavourable for the helical arrangement of the N-terminal domain, resulting in the unusual positions of EF1 and EF2; EF3 and EF4 are situated as in the open conformation of Ca2+-CaM. |

EH2 contains two EF-hands; only EF2 binds Ca2+. The length of the interhelical loop of EF1 is one residue shorter than the consensus sequence. Both EF-hands are similarly positioned as in the closed conformation. |
