Multiple Disulfide-Bonded States of Native Proteins: Estimate of Number Using Probabilities of Disulfide Bond Formation
The polypeptide backbone of proteins is held together by two main types of covalent bonds: the peptide bonds that link the amino acid residues and the disulfide bonds that link pairs of cysteine amino acids. Disulfide bonds form as a protein folds in the cell and formation was assumed to be complete...
