The complete amino acid sequence of the calcium-binding protein (CaBP) from pig intestinal mucosa has been determined: Ac-Ser-Ala-Gln-Lys-Ser-Pro-Ala-Glu-Leu-Lys-Ser-Ile-Phe-Glu-Lys-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Lys-Glu-Gly-Asp-Pro-Asn-Gln-Leu-Ser-Lys-Glu-Glu-Leu-Lys-Gln-Leu-Ile-Gln-Ala-Glu-Phe-Pro-Ser-Leu-Leu-Lys-Gly-Pro-Arg-Thr-Leu-Asp-Asp-Leu-Phe-Gln-Glu-Leu-Asp-Lys-Asn-Gly-Asn-Gly-Glu-Val-Ser-Phe-Glu-Glu-Phe-Gln-Val-Leu-Val-Lys-Lys-Ile-Ser-Gln-OH. The N-terminal octapeptide sequence was determined by mass spectrometry analysis by Morris and Dell. The first 45 residues of bovine CaBP differ only in six positions from the corresponding sequence of the porcine protein, except that the sequence starts in position two of the porcine sequence. The mammalian intestinal CaBP's belong to the troponin-C superfamily on the basis of an analysis by Barker and Dayhoff.

When the amino-acid sequence of the 108-residue, rat tumour calcium-binding protein, oncomodulin, was aligned with that of rat muscle parvalbumin, 55 homologous positions were found, with an additional 33 single base-pair substitutions. This extensive homology, with virtual identity of the calcium-binding domains, signalled oncomodulin to be a member of the troponin C superfamily. The presence of Cys-18 and Phe-66 in oncomodulin, plus its isoelectric point of 3.9) suggest that this tumour protein is a 8-parva Jbumin, rather than a muscle α-parvalbumin.
