Quantitative analyses were carried out on Tb3+ binding to porcine intestinal calcium-binding protein (CaBP). Tb3+ (emission at 547 nm) and intrinsic tyrosine (emission at 303 nm) fluorescences upon excitation at 260 nm increase almost in parallel with increasing Tb3+ concentration up to a molar ratio of 2 against the protein in the CaBP solution. The pH dependence profile of Tb3+ fluorescence of the Tb3+-CaBP complex suggests that some free carboxylate groups are involved in the binding, as also suggested for Ca2+ binding. The results of fluorometric titration of Tb3+ and intrinsic tyrosine fluorescences of the CaBP complex with Tb3+ or Ca2+ led us to conclude that Tb3+ and Ca2+ have two common binding sites for each CaBP molecule. An equilibrium dialysis experiment showed that the dissociation constants of the two Tb3+-binding sites are 0.29 and 3.51 μM. Tb3+ strongly inhibits 45Ca binding to one of the two Ca2+-binding sites in the CaBP. All of these and previous results indicate that each Tb3+ ion can bind to either of two high-affinity Ca2+-binding sites in porcine intestinal CaBP with an affinity different from that for Ca2+ ion. We discuss the localization of the Ca2+-and Tb3+-binding sites in the CaBP.
