Study of Cysteine Residues

Enlightening fundamental and applied research.

Cysteine is an amino acid that is very interesting from a biological point of view. Their thiol side chain is indeed implicated in many enzymatic reactions and can form a disulfide bridge with another cysteine residue in the same protein or in another one.

The workflow for studying cysteine residues

There is a variety of tools and strategies available to study cysteine using mass spectrometry. Our team works with you to customize and adapt the best workflow to meet your goals. The following are some examples:

  • Differential alkylation (to compare free cysteine between two conditions)
  • Disulfide bridge mapping (using native dipeptides)
  • Targeted quantification
  • Comparative proteomics
  • Intact protein analyses
