2. Figure 1
Molecular structure of albumin to illustrate its complexity and the different functional domains. The main functions are imparted by the Cys 34 component (orange shading), which provides thiol function and functions as an antioxidant, the metal binding domain (blue shading) which functions to scavenge the free, metal and the binding sites (BS; in yellow), which function to bind circulating protein-bound substances.
