  Domain Name: ALBUMIN
Albumin domain, contains five or six internal disulphide bonds; albuminoid superfamily includes alpha-fetoprotein which binds various cations, fatty acids and bilirubin; vitamin D-binding protein which binds to vitamin D, its metabolites, and fatty acids; alpha-albumin which binds water, cations (such as Ca2+, Na+ and K+), fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin and drugs; and afamin of which little is known; these belong to a multigene family with highly conserved intron/exon organization and encoded protein structures; evolutionary comparisons strongly support vitamin D-binding protein as the original gene in this group with subsequent local duplications generating the remaining genes in the cluster
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
