Investigation of cysteine and methionine oxidation using x-ray absorption spectroscopy
Cysteine (Cys) and methionine (Met) are sulfur containing amino acids with various oxidation forms. Oxidation of Cys yields cysteinyl radicals that have been postulated as intermediates in several biological contexts including enzymatic catalysis, long-range electron transfer, peptide post-translati...
