Abstract:
:Proteins and peptides are readily and specifically modified at their sulfhydryl groups by the vapors of a mixture of 4-vinylpyridine and tributylphosphine. The phenylthiohydantoin derivative of S-beta-(4-pyridylethyl)cysteine formed during sequence analysis is easily detectable in current identification systems.
