Abstract The effect of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, the indomethacin, on the conformation of human serum albumin is investigated by evaluatingα-helix,β-structure and random coil structure contents from optical rotatory dispersion spectra. The observed structural changes may be attributed to theα-helix-to-β-structure conversion, because the content of random coil is not largely changed. The increase inβ-structure is due to a loss in the degrees of freedom in albumin.
