Spin-lattice relaxation rateconstants, spin-spin relaxation rateconstants, and steady-state j'Hf-^ N nuclear Overhauser effects were determined for 71 of the 72 backbone amide 15N nuclei. The relaxation parameters were analyzed using a model-free formalism that incorporates the overall rotational correlation time of the molecule, and a generalized order parameter (S2) and an effective internal correlation time for each amide group. Calbindin D9k contains two helix-loop-helix motifs joined by a linker loop at one end of the protein and a/3-type interaction between the two calcium-binding loops at the other end. The amplitude of motions for the calcium-binding loops and the helices are similar, as judged from the average S2 values of 0.83 ą 0.05 and 0.85 ą 0.04, respectively. The linker region joining the two calcium-binding subdomains of the molecule has a significantly higher flexibility, as indicated by a substantially lower average S2 value of 0.59 ą 0.23. For residues in the linker loop and at the C-terminus, the order parameter is further decomposed into separate order parameters for motional processes on two distinct time scales. The effective correlation times are significantly longer for helices I and IV than for helices II and III or for the calcium-binding loops. Residue by residue comparisons reveal correlations of the order parameters with both the crystallographic B-factors and amide proton exchange rates, despite vast differences in the time scales to which these properties are sensitive. The order parameters are also utilized to distinguish regions of the NMR-derived three-dimensional structure of calbindin D9k that are poorly defineddue to inherently high flexibility, frompoorly definedregions with average flexibility but a low density of structural constraints.(Calbindin D9k is a small calcium-binding protein structurally homologous to the globular domains of calmodulin (CaM) 1 and troponin C (TnC). These proteins belong to the super-family of proteins that bind Ca2+ ions through a common structural motif consisting of a calcium-binding loop flanked by two helices, termed the EF-hand (Kretsinger, 1987). The EF-hands generally occur in pairs, with a parallel arrangement as detailed in Figure 1. Cooperativity in the binding of calcium has been observed for some members of the CaM superfamily and has been attributed to the/3-type interaction between the two calcium-binding loops (Seamon & Kretsinger, 1983; Linse et al., 1987). The binding of Ca2+ ions has been proposed to resultin substantial structural rearrangements of the helices (Herzberg et al., 1986), which changes the nature
