Abstract excerpt
Seed legumins contain two conserved disulfide bonds: an interchain bond (IE) connecting the acidic and basic chains and an intrachain bond (IA) internal to the acidic chain. Mutant subunits were constructed in which these disulfide bonds were disrupted. Oxidized glutathione stimulated the rate of assembly of trimers with unmodified prolegumin subunits. Stimulation was not detected during assembly of IE mutant...
