Radiation-induced damage to protein crystals during X-ray diffraction data collection is a major impediment to obtaining accurate structural information on macromolecules. Some of the specific impairments that are inflicted upon highly brilliant X-ray irradiation are metal-ion reduction, disulfide-bond cleavage and a loss of the integrity of the carboxyl groups of acidic residues. With respect to disulfide-bond reduction, previous results have indicated that not all disulfide bridges are equally susceptible to damage. A careful an
