General description

Human serum albumin undergoes three different post-translational modifications: oxidation, glycation, and S-nitrosylation. Modifications usually occur on the surface of the globular protein, and do not significantly affect conformation. However, modification strongly affects binding of fatty acids and drug molecules.

Albumin is the most copious protein in blood plasma. Liver produces human albumin. Human serum albumin undergoes three different post-translational modifications: oxidation, glycation, and S-nitrosylation. Modifications usually occur on the surface of the globular protein, and do not significantly affect conformation. However, modification strongly affects binding of fatty acids and drug molecules.
