Two Cysteines in Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein Make Differential Contributions to Structural Dynamics In Vitro by Hyun Sang Cho, Mohammad Faysal Al Mazid, Eun-Young Lee, Md Abu Rayhan, Hyoun Sook Kim, Byung Il Lee, Hye Jin You

“…Here, we identified the role of cysteine 133 in RKIP structural dynamics using recombinant human RKIP (rhRKIP) proteins purified from <i>Escherichia coli</i> BL21(DE3) cells. Mutation of alanine or serine instead of cysteine in RKIP proteins did not affect the biochemical characteristics, while dynamic light scattering and liquid chromatography (LC) quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) suggested distinct peaks in solution, which were identified via LC–MS/MS analyses, and further clarified the role of cysteine in RKIP dimerization. rhRKIP dimer formation was abrogated by a 32-aa peptide mimicking the region between two RKIP proteins for dimerization. …”
