== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ALBU_HUMAN ALBU_HUMAN] Defects in ALB are a cause of familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/103600 103600]. FDH is a form of euthyroid hyperthyroxinemia that is due to increased affinity of ALB for T(4). It is the most common cause of inherited euthyroid hyperthyroxinemia in Caucasian population.<ref>PMID:8048949</ref> <ref>PMID:7852505</ref> <ref>PMID:9329347</ref> <ref>PMID:9589637</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ALBU_HUMAN ALBU_HUMAN] Serum albumin, the main protein of plasma, has a good binding capacity for water, Ca(2+), Na(+), K(+), fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin and drugs. Its main function is the regulation of the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. Major zinc transporter in plasma, typically binds about 80% of all plasma zinc.<ref>PMID:19021548</ref>
