The oxidative folding of the Amaranthus α-amylase inhibitor, a 32-residue cystine-knot protein with three disulfide bridges, was studied in vitro in terms of the disulfide content of the intermediate ...

The high-resolution structure of an oxidoreductase from the archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus shows that it comprises two adjacent domains each with the thioredoxin (trx/grx) fold. Its functional ...

Scientists have developed a new process to structure surfaces and to apply or detach functional molecules. They use UV light for the formation or breaking of so-called disulfide bridges, i.e. bonds of ...
