ABSTRACT:
Modified forms of human serum albumin (HSA) wherein the arginine at position 218 is substituted by a less basic amino acid show strong thyroxin-binding activity. Recombinant materials for production of these modified forms of HSA and fragments are disclosed, as well as recombinant materials for diagnosis for the presence or absence of a gene encoding said modified HSA.
