Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Cephalochordata; Leptocardii; Amphioxiformes; Branchiostomidae; Branchiostoma.
 
Function: Like parvalbumins, SCP's seem to be more abundant in fast contracting muscles, but no functional relationship can be established from this distribution.
 
Miscellaneous: The sarcoplasmic calcium-binding proteins are abundant in the muscle of arthropods, mollusks, annelids, and protochordates.
Miscellaneous: This protein has three functional calcium-binding sites; potential site 4 has lost affinity for calcium.
