| Abstract | A novel methodology is described for the assignment of disulfide bonds in proteins of known sequence. The denatured protein is subjected to limited reduction by tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) in pH 3.0 citrate buffer to produce a mixture of partially reduced protein isomers; the nascent sulfhydryls are immediately cyanylated by 1-cyano-4-dimethylamino-pyridinium tetrafluoroborate (CDAP) under the same buffered conditions. The cyanylated protein isomers, separated by and collected from reversed-phase HPLC, are subjected to cleavage of the peptide bonds on the N-terminal side of cyanylated cysteines in aqueous ammonia to form truncated peptides that are still linked by residual disulfide bonds. The remaining disulfide bonds are then completely reduced to give a mixture of peptides that can be mass mapped by MALDI-MS. The masses of the resulting peptide fragments are related to the location of the paired cysteines that had undergone reduction, cyanylation, and cleavage. A side reaction, beta-elimination, often accompanies cleavage and produces overlapped peptides that provide complementary confirmation for the assignment. This strategy minimizes disulfide bond scrambling and is simple, fast, and sensitive. The feasibility of the new approach is demonstrated in the analysis of model proteins that contain various disulfide bond linkages, including adjacent cysteines. Experimental conditions are optimized for protein partial reduction, sulfhydryl cyanylation, and chemical cleavage reactions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
