2C8H with Cys present at positions 22, 23, and 24 in the linker sequence of
CYP2C8 can form cross-linked dimers. To reduce the formation of higher order
complexes, the 2C8H(Cys-) mutant in which 7 Cys were mutated was used, and Cys
was substituted at either residue 22, 23, or 24. The proteins were expressed in
bacteria, cross-linked by oxidation of Cys (A) or BMOE treatment (B), and
analyzed as described in the legend to Fig.
