  • The formation of cysteine-tyrosine crosslinks via a sulfenic acid intermediate [abstract] 

    Hicks, Angela; Keerthi, Kripa; Gates, Kent S. (Kent Stephen), 1962- (University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
    Cysteine residues in proteins are readily oxidized to sulfenic acids. Sulfenic acids, in turn, can act as potent electrophiles that have been observed to form intrastrand protein crosslinks with neighboring amide or cysteine ...
