Quantitative analysis for cysteinyl, cystinyl and tryptophyl residues, as well as those of the more stable amino acids, may be made on a single column of an amino acid analyzer after acid hydrolysis of either soluble or insoluble proteins. The procedure involves determination of cysteinyl residues a
So far, the cystine (disulfide) content of proteins has been routinely determined by indirect methods, i.e., cystines are first converted to more stable half-cystines prior to analysis. We present a study which demonstrates that the cystine content can be directly and accurately analyzed at low pico
Digestion of proteins with a mixture of chymotrypsin and pronase followed by dilution in 6 M urea eliminates the quenching effects usually observed when tryptophan fluorescence is measured in native or denatured proteins. Following proteolysis, the tryptophan content can be estimated from the fluore
The total salt-extractable protein from seeds of important cultivated legumes and sunflower kernels has a tryptophan content ranging from 0.91% (bywt) for chickpea (Cicer arietinum) to 1.99% (bywt) for green gram (Vigna radiata). In species with substantial albumin fractions, the tryptophan content
