Abstract
The fast step in the conformational change of human serum albumin from the alkaline to the neutral form of the albumin-bilirubin complex is studied by various pH jump experiments in a stopped-flow apparatus. The results indicate that the first step is caused by electrostatic attraction between a carboxylate group of bilirubin and a histidine residue of albumin.Entities:
