CC -!- FUNCTION: Serum albumin, the main protein of plasma, has a good binding
CC capacity for water, Ca(2+), Na(+), K(+), fatty acids, hormones,
CC bilirubin and drugs. Its main function is the regulation of the
CC colloidal osmotic pressure of blood.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Plasma.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: In the red-eared slider turtle, there are two forms of
CC albumin, ALB-1 and ALB-2.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ALB/AFP/VDB family. {ECO:0000305}.
