Molecular Basis for the Selectivity of DHA and EPA in Sudlow’s Drug Binding Sites in Human Serum Albumin with the Combined Use of NMR and Docking Calculations

Medium- and long-chain saturated and unsaturated free fatty acids (FFAs) are known to bind to human serum albumin (HSA), the main plasma carrier protein. Atomic-level structural data regarding the binding mode in Sudlow’s sites I (FA7) and II (FA4, FA3) of the polyunsaturated ω-3 fatty acids docosah...
