Looks like a wrong shape for tetrahedral acid

As I've just written to David, maybe it's sulfenic acid (result of radiation damage?). I've had those in some cases. See attached scheme for the chemistry and other possibilities for Cys modification by oxidation.

So far almost everyone is suggesting BME.
I didn't do the purification & crystallization myself, but I am told:
Buffer was HEPES
cryo was ethylene glycol, glycerol and DMSO.
Some MgSO4 and KPO4
No BME, but maybe some DTT.
Purified from a proteobacterium.

What is in buffer? Perhaps DTT and cacodylate?
