There are five types of heavy chain: ... the heavy and light chains are not linked with
disulfide but with noncovalent bonds.
The IgA found in ... are covalently linked together with
disulfide bonds, usually as a pentamer or a hexamer. It has ...

Under oxidizing conditions, two cysteines can join together by a
disulfide bond to form the amino acid cystine . When cysteines are part of a protein, insulin for example, this enforces tertiary structure.

... strands called intermediate filaments. These proteins contain a high percentage of sulfur -containing amino acids , largely cysteine , which form
disulfide bridges between the individual molecules, resulting in a fairly rigid structure. Human hair is approximately 14% cysteine.

disulfide bonds are usually involved too.
The process by which the higher structures form is called protein folding and is a consequence of the primary ...
