uniprot summary :
Function: Serum albumin, the main protein of plasma, has a good binding capacity for water, Ca2+, Na+, K+, fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin and drugs. Its main function is the regulation of the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. Major zinc transporter in plasma, typically binds about 80% of all plasma zinc. Ref.32. Subcellular location: Secreted. Tissue specificity: Plasma. Post-translational modification: Kenitra variant is partially O-glycosylated at Thr-620. It has two new disulfide bonds Cys-600 to Cys-602 and Cys-601 to Cys-606.Glycated in diabetic patients.Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium.Acetylated on Lys-223 by acetylsalicylic acid. Ref.25. Polymorphism: A variant structure of albumin could lead to increased binding of zinc resulting in an asymptomatic augmentation of zinc concentration in the blood. The sequence shown is that of variant albumin A. Involvement in disease: Dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (DH) [MIM:103600]: A disorder characterized by abnormally elevated levels of total serum thyroxine (T4) in euthyroid patients. It is due to abnormal serum albumin that binds T4 with enhanced affinity.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.61 Ref.62 Ref.63 Ref.64. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the ALB/AFP/VDB family.Contains 3 albumin domains. Caution: A peptide arising from positions 166 to 174 was originally (Ref.23 and Ref.24) termed neurotensin-related peptide (NRP) or kinetensin and was thought to regulate fat digestion, lipid absorption, and blood flow. Sequence caution: The sequence AAF22034.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally extended.The sequence AAF69644.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally extended.The sequence AAG35503.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally extended.
