Trypsin contains three | Trypsin contains three <scene name='Sandbox_50/Disulfidebonds/1'>disulfide bonds</scene> involving six cysteine residues. These disulfide bonds are intramolecular forces that stabalize the tertiary structure of Trypsin. The figure shows the yellow disulfide bonds between the cysteine residues connecting two random coils, connecting one of the alpha helices to the beta sheet, and the other disulfide connecting the two alpha helices. | ||
