Q

which amino acid is capable of forming disulfide bond/bridges

A

Cystine: is composed of two cysteines linked by a disulfide bond (shown here in its neutral form). Disulfide bonds in proteins are formed between the thiol groups of cysteine residues by the process of oxidative folding. The other sulfur-containing amino acid, methionine, cannot form disulfide bonds.
