The disulfide-bond forming reagent trans-[Pt(en) 2 Cl 2 ] 2+ cleanly, rapidly and quantitatively converts fully reduced a-conotoxin GI and a-conotoxin SI to their three disulfide bond-containing regioisomers in one-step in media of pH 3-7, enabling the convenient synthesis of the three isomers.
A new procedure is described for identification of disulfide bonds in peptides by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS). Prolonged bombardment of a disulfide-containing peptide in solution by a high-energy xenon beam results in gradual reduction of the disulfide bond. The reduction is the
