Abstract excerpt
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB is a dimeric protein held together by two disulfide bonds involving the 2nd and 4th cysteine residues from the NH2 terminus. To localize the three intrachain disulfide bonds in PDGF, a method was devised that made it possible to cleave PDGF at specific sit...
