Question 34

(Multiple Choice)

One method used to prevent disulfide bond interference with protein sequencing procedures is:


A) cleaving proteins with proteases that specifically recognize disulfide bonds.
B) protecting the disulfide bridge against spontaneous reduction to cysteinyl sulfhydryl groups.
C) reducing disulfide bridges and preventing their re-formation by further modifying the -SH groups.
D) removing cystines from protein sequences by proteolytic cleavage.
E) sequencing proteins that do not contain cysteinyl residues.
