Do you have reason to think that the disulfide bonds will break at pH 8?
This would be unusual. Converting from CYX to CYS is an oxidation/reduction
conversion, not a proton titration one. If you wish to model the CYS
titration behavior after the disulfides are broken, then (indeed) you need
to change CYX to CYS. But be sure that is really what you want to do.
