HUMAN SERUM ALBUMIN COMPLEXED WITH MYRISTIC ACID AND THE R-(+) ENANTIOMER OF WARFARIN
Overview
Human serum albumin (HSA) is an abundant transport protein found in plasma, that binds a wide variety of drugs in two primary binding sites (I and II), and can have a significant impact on their pharmacokinetics. We have, determined the crystal structures at 2.5 A-resolution of HSA-myristate, complexed with the R-(+) and S-(-) enantiomers of warfarin, a widely used, anticoagulant that binds to the protein with high affinity. The structures, confirm that warfarin binds to drug site I (in subdomain IIA) in the, presence of fatty acids and reveal the molecular details of the, protein-drug interaction. The two enantiomers of warfarin adopt very, similar conformations when bound to the protein and make many of the same, specific contacts with amino acid side chains at the binding site, thus, ...
