Abstract: | The sulfur of cystine and methionine may be removed from proteins by Raney nickel catalyst. The method has been applied to casein and egg albumin. Rat repletion studies and microbiological assays demonstrate that the desulfurized proteins retain other essential amino acids. The method may be modified to prepare a methionine-containing, cystine-free protein. |
