On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Albumin:

albumin – serum albumin – preproalbumin (serum albumin) – Serum albumin – growth-inhibiting protein 20 – cell growth inhibiting protein 42 – albumin 1 – preproalbumin

Albumin fulfills a number of functions:

DNA binding – copper ion binding – drug binding – fatty acid binding – metal ion binding – oxygen binding – protein binding – pyridoxal phosphate binding – toxin binding – antioxidant activity – lipid binding – cell surface binding – chaperone binding – zinc ion binding

Albumin is relevant to the following processes:

cellular response to starvation – hemolysis by symbiont of host erythrocytes – maintenance of mitochondrion location – negative regulation of apoptosis – transport – positive regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle, non-REM sleep – response to mercury ion – response to nutrient – response to organic substance – response to platinum ion – response to stress – vasodilation

Locations for Albumin:

cytoplasm – extracellular region – extracellular space – protein complex – platelet alpha granule lumen – basement membrane
