Biomimetic selenocystine based dynamic combinatorial chemistry for thiol-disulfide exchange

Thiol-disulfide exchange is an extensively used reversible reaction in dynamic combinatorial chemistry, but usually requires long time to reach equilibrium. Here, the authors employ selenocystine as a catalyst of thiol-disulfide exchange at low temperatures and basic pH, and show that it can promote...

Sumario:Thiol-disulfide exchange is an extensively used reversible reaction in dynamic combinatorial chemistry, but usually requires long time to reach equilibrium. Here, the authors employ selenocystine as a catalyst of thiol-disulfide exchange at low temperatures and basic pH, and show that it can promote disulfide bond formation during folding of a scrambled RNase A.
