Hi Jonathan,

Not sure if it's been observed in a crystal structure before, but a Cys-Lys 
bond (sulfenamide) has been proposed to occur with functional relevance in the 
bleach-sensing transcription factor, NemR. (See Antioxid Redox Signal. 2015 Sep 
20; 23(9): 747–754. doi:10.1089/ars.2015.6346)
I think sulfenamides are more regularly reported between the Cys sulfur and its 
backbone amide, but the Cys-Lys sulfenamide should still be perfectly feasible 
as far as I understand.
Cheers,

David
