The binding of flunitrazepam (FNZP) by human alpha1-acid glycoprotein (hAGP) and the relationships between the extent of drug binding and desialylation and the genetic variants of hAGP were examined. The photolabeling specificity of [3H]FNZP was confirmed by findings in which other hAGP-binding ligands inhibited the formation of covalent bonds between [3H]FNZP and hAGP. The photolabeling of asialo-hAGP suggested that sialic acid does not involve in the binding of [3H]FNZP. No difference in the labeling could be found between the F1*S variants and A variant. Similarly, FNZP did not show a difference in binding affinity to the two genetic variants of hAGP. Sequence analysis of the photolabeled peptide indicated a sequence corresponding to Tyr91-Arg105 of hAGP.
