Dear Yuri,
If you have access to mass spec, this should be a straight forward experiment.
Find the
reference here.

What was the result in the Ellman´s reaction? Unless you have other reactive
cysteines
in your protein protein, you should not see any color if the pair of cysteines
on
surface form disulfide.

Dear All,
I am trying to probe the existence of a disulfide bond on the surface of my
protein.
I have attempted Ellman´s and my results were not as clear as I would have
hoped for.
I am not a sulfur/cysteine chemist and would appreciate the advice on what
experiments
to try!
Thanks a bunch
YAP
