SS-ro, SS-la 

Skeletal and cardiac muscle Ca2+ binding
binds Troponin C which causes movement of tropomyosin which allows myosin to bind actin.
Smooth muscle contraction
Ca2+ binds calmodulin which activates myosin light chain kinase which allows actin-myosin cross-bridge formation and causes contraction
