The effects of 1-propanol ant to a certain extent of ethanol on human serum albumin were studied over the pH range 7 - 13.3 and alcohol concentrations up to 20 vol.%. In some case behaviour of the native preparation was compared with albumin cleared of weaker bound fatty acids. The data obtained by UV-spectrophotometry were discussed from the point of view of individual types of chromophores as well as in a broader context of the secondary structure. The results can be summarized as follows: (a) Partial removal of bound fatty acids has an influence on the dissociation of tyrosines. (b) The effect of alcohols on this dissociation is rather complex, the permitivity of the solvent being only a part of it. (c) At high alkaline pH a series of peaks in the fourth-derivative absorption spectra appear in the region 305 - 320 nm. These peaks were shown to correspond to buried dissociated tyrosines. (d) In the presence of 1-propanol a small conformational transition of albumin molecule is observed at pH below 9.

The mechanism of denaturation of human serum albumin by urea was examined by polarography, polarimetry, circular dichroism, UV-spectrophotometry, gel chromatography, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Comparison of the results obtained by these methods shows that this reaction is a complex process which cannot be described by a two-state denaturation model. It has been demonstrated that the different states which denaturation produces arise under different denaturation conditions. The different behavior of various species of human serum albumin (monomer, mercaptalbumin and nonmercaptalbumin) during denaturation by urea was examined. As a result the following probable denaturation scheme was proposed: The denaturation of human serum albumin by urea is regarded as a stepwise process involving one stable intermediary product at least ( demonstrated electrophoretically). After the rapid initial change of the ordered helical structure extensive hydrophobic domains of the molecule remain folded. Cystine residues are gradually liberated from these domains. Denaturated mercaptalbumin has the conformation of a random coil in which the pairing of native disulfide bonds has been altered because of SH-S-S interchange reactions; in contrast native disulfide bonds are retained in nonmercaptalbumin.
