Abstract excerpt
Within various proteins of the thioredoxin family, the stability of the disulfide bond formed reversibly between the two active site cysteine residues, one accessible and one buried, varies widely and is directly correlated with the pKa value of the accessible cysteine thiol group. If applicable to thioredoxin, its stable disulfide bond would imply that its accessible thiol group should have a high pKa value,...
