Type  domain Description  The C2 domains mediate lipid and calcium binding. The N-terminal C2 domain binds calcium ions and is important for calcium-dependent lipid binding and interaction with membranes. Two calcium ions are bound at a high-affinity site and a third calcium ion is bound with lower affinity. May bind up to four calcium ions. In contrast, the second C2 domain apparently does not bind calcium. The third C2 domain mediates interaction with membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and is required for location at the cell membrane (By similarity).
