Reaction of HOCl with amino acid side chains in proteins. The initial reaction products of relevant amino acid side chains with HOCl are depicted. The width of the reaction arrows is proportional to the logarithm of the apparent second-order rate constant, a wider arrow thus indicates a faster reaction of the respective amino acid side chain by orders of magnitude. Rate constants obtained in experiments with model compounds as reported by the Davies group in refs [228, 229, 243]
