The subunit structure of prealbumin [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1971
1. Prealbumin, a thyroxine-binding protein, is known to bind also to retinol-binding protein and is suspected on X-ray-crystallographic evidence of having a quaternary structure. 2. Experiments described in this paper suggest that the molecule is a tetramer of mol.wt.

A CHANGED VIEW OF SERUM PREALBUMIN IN THE ELDERLY: PREALBUMIN VALUES INFLUENCED BY CONCOMITANT INFLAMMATION [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2007
We are currently witnessing changes in views on the evaluation of serum proteins. A decrease may signal not only malnutrition. It may also be an indicator of simultaneously occurring inflammatory disease. Prealbumin, due to its short half-life, is a suitable indicator of changes in protein-energy balance, but its levels show, as with other serum ...
