Structural highlights
DiseaseALBU_HUMAN Defects in ALB are a cause of familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) [MIM: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.[1] [2] [3] [4] FunctionALBU_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.[5] Publication Abstract from PubMedDesigning a multitarget anticancer drug with improved delivery and therapeutic efficiency in vivo presents a great challenge. Thus, we proposed to design an anticancer multitarget metal pro-drug derived from thiosemicarbazone based on the His146 residue in the IB subdomain of palmitic acid (PA)-modified human serum albumin (HSA-PA). The structure-activity relationship of six Cu(II) compounds with 6-methyl-2-formylpyridine-(4)N-substituted thiosemicarbazones were investigated, and then the multitarget capability of 4b was confirmed in cancer cell DNA and proteins. The structure of the HSA-PA-4b complex (HSA-PA-4b) revealed that 4b is bound to the IB subdomain of modified HSA, and that His146 replaces the nitrate ligand in 4b, coordinating with Cu(2+), whereas PA is complexed with the IIA subdomain by its carboxyl forming hydrogen bonds with Lys199 and His242. In vivo data showed that 4b and the HSA-PA-4b complex inhibit lung tumor growth, and the targeting ability and therapeutic efficacy of the PA-modified HSA complex was stronger than 4b alone.
