A C2 domain is a protein structural domain involved in targeting proteins to cell membranes. The typical version (PKC-C2) has a beta-sandwich composed of 8 β-strands that co-ordinates two or three calcium ions which bind in a cavity formed by the first and final loops of the domain on the membrane binding face. Many other C2 domain families don’t have calcium binding activity.
