title: Disulphide arrangement in bovine caseins: localization of intrachain disulphide bridges in monomers of kappa- and alpha s2-casein from bovine milk.
abstract: Naturally occurring monomeric kappa-casein and alpha s2-casein in bovine milk were purified by ion-exchange chromatography in order to localize potential intrachain disulphide bridges. Enzymic cleavage of the proteins followed by mass spectrometry and amino acid sequence analysis of cystine-containing peptides revealed the presence of an intrachain disulphide bond in both proteins.
