Cysteine Function Governs Its Conservation and Degeneration and Restricts Its Utilization on Protein Surfaces

Cysteine (Cys) is an enigmatic amino acid residue. Although one of the least abundant, it often occurs in the functional sites of proteins. Whereas free Cys is a polar amino acid, Cys in proteins is often buried, and its classification on the hydrophobicity scale is ambiguous. We hypothesized that t...
