Target Information

Albumin is a soluble, monomeric protein with a molecular weight of approximately 65–67 kDa that comprises about one-half of the blood serum protein. Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in human blood plasma and has a serum half-life of approximately 20 days.
It functions primarily as a carrier protein for steroids, fatty acids, and thyroid hormones, and plays a role in stabilizing extracellular fluid volume.
Albumin is a globular, unglycosylated serum protein synthesized in the liver as pre-pro-albumin, which has an N-terminal peptide that is removed before the nascent protein is released from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to produce the secreted albumin.
Serum albumin has a good binding capacity for water, Ca(2+), Na(+), K(+), fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin, and drugs. The main function of albumin is the regulation of the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood.
