CRP is a calcium dependent strcuture. Effectively, Ca2+ is required for PC binding, and more precisely for the formation of the PCbinding site. Structural rearrangements of the CRP occur when the protein binds calcium. The protection against denaturation and proteolysis. <ref name="ramadan">Ramadan, M. A. M., Shrive, A.

CRP is a calcium dependent strcuture. Effectively, Ca2+ is required for PC binding, and more precisely for the formation of the PC binding site. Structural rearrangements of the CRP occur when the protein binds Ca2+. The protection against denaturation and proteolysis is performed through Ca2+ binding too. In the absence of Ca2+, hCRP is cleaved between Asn145 and Phe146 by nagarse protease, and between Phe146 and Glu147 by pronase. <ref name="ramadan">Ramadan, M. A. M., Shrive, A.
