  2. Cystamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cystamine

    Cystamine (2,2'-dithiobisethanamine) is an organic disulfide.It is formed when cystine is heated, the result of decarboxylation.Cystamine is an unstable liquid and is generally handled as the dihydrochloride salt, C 4 H 12 N 2 S 2 ·2HCl, which is stable to 203-214 °C at which point it decomposes.

  3. Dimethyl sulfoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfoxide

    Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 S O.This colorless liquid is the sulfoxide most widely used commercially. It is an important polar aprotic solvent that dissolves both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible in a wide range of organic solvents as well as water.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_table

    The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.

  5. Cystine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cystine

    Cystine is the oxidized derivative of the amino acid cysteine and has the formula (SCH 2 CH(NH 2)CO 2 H) 2.It is a white solid that is poorly soluble in water. As a residue in proteins, cystine serves two functions: a site of redox reactions and a mechanical linkage that allows proteins to retain their three-dimensional structure.

  6. Cysteine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cysteine

    Cysteine (/ ˈ s ɪ s t ɪ iː n /; [5] symbol Cys or C; [6]) is a semiessential [7] proteinogenic amino acid with the formula HOOC−CH(−NH 2)−CH 2 −SH. The thiol side chain in cysteine enables the formation of disulfide bonds, and often participates in enzymatic reactions as a nucleophile. Cysteine is chiral, but both D and L-cysteine ...

  7. Sulfoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfoxide

    cis-RuCl 2 (dmso) 4, a representative metal complex of a sulfoxide. Three DMSO ligands are S-bonded to Ru, one is O-bonded. Sulfoxides, especially DMSO, form coordination complexes with transition metals. Depending on the hard-soft properties of the metal, the sulfoxide binds through either the sulfur or the oxygen atom. The latter is ...

  9. Thiol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiol

    As the functional group of the amino acid cysteine, the thiol group plays a very important role in biology. When the thiol groups of two cysteine residues (as in monomers or constituent units) are brought near each other in the course of protein folding, an oxidation reaction can generate a cystine unit with a disulfide bond (−S−S−).
