How does denaturing a protein release sulfur? I never actually thought of where that sulfur comes of, and I don't know enough bio/chem if that should be obvious from "denaturing of the protein".

I assumed it was in amino acid side chains, but it's not my area of expertise. I do know that sulfides are part of some amino acids.
