The inside cover picture shows the cysteine scanning mutagenesis of insulin in yeast resulting in expression of post‐translationally modified insulin analogues. On p. 2448 ff , F. Hubálek et al. show how selective reduction and subsequent alkylation of the introduced cysteine residues allow for chemoselective modification of insulin, as illustrated by a PEGylated insulin variant.
