Close coorelation of atomic absorption measurements for Ca(II) contents indicates that from pH 5.8-7.4 a twentyfold excess of EGTA1 removes but one of two Ca(II) from carp parvalbumin. Thus binding of the two Ca(II) appears to be noncooperative. The maximum in emission intensity observed at a nonintegral 1.4-1.7 equivs of added Tb(III) is shown to be due to quenching by excess Tb(III). The emission intensity at the maximum increased 40% upon dialysis to remove Tb(III) not bound in the CD or EF sites. Atomic absorption results show that both Ca(CD) and Ca(EF) of native parvalbumin are easily replaced by Tb(III). Emission of Tb(EF) is not quenched by Tb(CD), but by solution Tb(III) bound at a third site, perhaps the single water molecule bound to Tb(EF). Labeling of the single sulfhydryl group with a trifluoroacetonyl gorup yields a protein with ultraviolet circular dichroism, emission, and circularly polarized emission spectra closely similar to those of native parvalbumin.
