Abstract excerpt
Redox control of disulfide-bond formation in the H+-pyrophosphatase of Streptomyces coelicolor was investigated using cysteine mutants expressed in Escherichia coli. The wild-type enzyme, but not a cysteine-less mutant, was reversibly inactivated by oxidation. To determine the residues involved in oxidative inactivation, different cysteine residues were replaced. Analysis with a cysteine-modifying reagent...
