Treatment of a polypeptide with 2-mercaptoethanol yields two polypeptides with the following primary sequences: Val-Met-Tyr-Ala-Cys-Ser-Phe-Ala-Glu-Ser Ser-Cys-Phe-Lys-Cys-Trp-Lys-Tyr-Cys-Phe-Arg-Cys-Ser Treatment
Question:
Val-Met-Tyr-Ala-Cys-Ser-Phe-Ala-Glu-Ser
Ser-Cys-Phe-Lys-Cys-Trp-Lys-Tyr-Cys-Phe-Arg-Cys-Ser
