Serum Albumin: A Multifaced Enzyme [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in plasma, contributing actively to oncotic pressure maintenance and fluid distribution between body compartments. HSA acts as the main carrier of fatty acids, recognizes metal ions, affects pharmacokinetics of many drugs, provides the metabolic modification of some ligands, renders potential ...

Serum albumins—Unusual allergens [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2013 Albumins are multifunctional proteins present in the blood serum of animals. They can bind and transport a wide variety of ligands which they accommodate due to their conformational flexibility. Serum albumins are highly conserved both in amino acid sequence and three-dimensional structure.
