EF-hand, extracellular calcium-binding (EC) motif, found in secreted modular calcium-binding protein 1 (SMOC-1); SMOC-1, also termed SPARC-related modular calcium-binding protein 1, or smooth muscle-associated protein 1 (SMAP-1), is an Arf6 GTPase-activating protein (GAP) that directly interacts with clathrin and regulates the clathrin-dependent endocytosis of transferrin receptors from the plasma membrane. It is predominantly localized in basement membranes. SMOC-1 acts as a regulator of osteoblast differentiation and is involved in inhibition of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling through production of nitric oxide. It also plays an essential role in ocular and limb development and functions as a regulator of bone morphogenic protein (BMP) signaling. It interacts with a matricellular protein, tenascin C in addition to the serum proteins, fibulin-1 and C-reactive protein, but not collagens. Two point mutations in the SMOC1 gene may cause Waardenburg Anophtalmia Syndrome. Moreover, SMOC-1 is involved in direct or indirect modulation of growth factor signaling pathways and plays a role in physiological processes involving extensive tissue remodeling. SMOC-1 contains a follistatin-like (FS) domain, two thyroglobulin-like (TY) domains, a novel domain, which is found only in the homologous SMOC-2, and an extracellular calcium-binding (EC) domain with two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs.

EF-hand, extracellular calcium-binding (EC) motif, found in secreted modular calcium-binding protein SMOC-1, SMOC-2, and similar proteins; SMOC proteins corresponds to a group matricellular proteins that are involved in direct or indirect modulation of growth factor signaling pathways and play diverse roles in physiological processes involving extensive tissue remodeling, migration, proliferation, and angiogenesis. They may mediate intercellular signaling and cell type-specific differentiation during gonad and reproductive tract development. SMOC-1 is localized in basement membranes. Its mutations have been found to be associated with individuals with Warrdenburg Anopthalmia Syndrome. SMOC-2 is ubiquitously expressed and is involved in angiogenesis and the regulation of cell cycle progression. It enhances the angiogenic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). It has also been implicated in generalized vitiligo. SMOC proteins consist of a follistatin-like (FS) domain, two thyroglobulin-like (TY) domains, a novel domain conserved only in SMOC proteins, and an extracellular calcium-binding (EC) domain with two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs.

EF-hand, extracellular calcium-binding (EC) motif, found in secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC); SPARC, also termed basement-membrane protein 40 (BM-40), or osteonectin (ON), is a prototypic collagen-binding matricellular protein that is essential for embryo development in invertebrates and highly expressed in bone. It participates in normal tissue remodeling as it regulates the deposition of extracellular matrix, as well as in neoplastic transformation. It is involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) assembly and fibrosis through binding both fibrillar collagen and basal lamina collagen IV. It regulates the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), as well as the growth factor signaling mediated by cell surface receptors including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1. SPARC shows survival activity in tumor progression. It plays a role in metastatic process to the lung during melanoma progression. It can suppress prostate cancer cell growth and survival. Moreover, SPARC is a bone- associated protein that has a major role in bone development and mineralisationis. It is involved in the initiation and progression of vascular calcification and upregulated by adiponectin. Furthermore, SPARC may be one of the molecules that govern the uptake and delivery of proteins from blood to the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) during brain development. SPARC contains an N-terminal acidic 52-residue segment followed by a follistatin-like (FS) domain, and an alpha-helical EC domain with 2 unusual calcium-binding EF-hands and the collagen-binding site. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) also interacts with its EC domain, but in a calcium-independent manner, whereas collagen binding is calcium-dependent.

Kazal type serine protease inhibitors and follistatin-like domains. Kazal inhibitors inhibit serine proteases, such as, trypsin, chyomotrypsin, avian ovomucoids, and elastases. The inhibitory domain has one reactive site peptide bond, which serves the cognate enzyme as substrate. The reactive site peptide bond is a combining loop which has an identical conformation in all Kazal inhibitors and in all enzyme/inhibitor complexes. These Kazal domains (small hydrophobic core of alpha/beta structure with 3 to 4 disulfide bonds) often occur in tandem arrays. Similar domains are also present in follistatin (FS) and follistatin-like family members, which play an important role in tissue specific regulation. The FS domain consists of an N-terminal beta hairpin (FOLN/EGF-like domain) and a Kazal-like domain and has five disulfide bonds. Although the Kazal-like FS substructure is similar to Kazal proteinase inhibitors, no FS domain has yet been shown to be a proteinase inhibitor. Follistatin-like family members include SPARC, also known as, BM-40 or osteonectin, the Gallus gallus Flik protein, as well as, agrin which has a long array of FS domains. The kazal-type inhibitor domain has also been detected in an extracellular loop region of solute carrier 21 (SLC21) family members (organic anion transporters) , which may regulate the specificity of anion uptake. The distant homolog, Ascidian trypsin inhibitor, is included in this CD.

Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine Ca binding region; The SPARC_Ca_bdg domain of Secreted Protein Acidic and Rich in Cysteine is responsible for the anti-spreading activity of human urothelial cells. It is rich in alpha-helices. This extracellular calcium-binding domain contains two EF-hands that each coordinates one Ca2+ ion, forming a helix-loop-helix structure that not only drives the conformation of the protein but is also necessary for biological activity. The anti-spreading activity was dependent on the coordination of Ca2+ by a Glu residue at the Z position of EF-hand 2.
