title: Intersubunit disulfide bonds in the molecule of baker's yeast transketolase.
abstract: It has previously been shown that baker's yeast trans ketolase has no intersubunit disulfide bonds and is able to dissociate reversibly into subunits at a low apoprotein concentration in solution. By contrast, in the present work it was found that in the molecule of transketolase C (a newly discovered form of the enzyme) subunits are bound to each other by disulfide bonds.
