Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have demonstrated that the two cysteine residues in the calcium-binding protein S100B are required for its extracellular functions. In the present study, a recombinant S100B protein and mutant S100Bs containing one or no cysteine residue(s) have been used to determine the contribution of cysteine residues to S100B dimerization and interaction with the intracellular target proteins aldolase,...
