## Abstract Tryptophan synthase catalyzes the nucleophilic replacement of the hydroxyl group at C‐3 of L‐serine. This enzyme can use benzyl mercaptan as a nucleophile in the conversion of serine to S‐benzyl‐L‐cysteine which is deblocked by treatment with sodium in liquid ammonia to yield L‐cysteine

The interaction of CuC1, with poly(Scarboxymethy1-L-cysteine) (poly[Cys(CH,COOH)]) and poly(Scarboxyethy1-L-cysteine) (poly[Cys(CzH,COOH)]) were studied by absorption spectra and circular dichroism (CD). On mixing CuClz with polypeptide solutions, absorption bands appeared at 32C-325 nm in both poly
