Proteins are substances with great usage. For industrial usage, proteins are often taken from their natural enviroment. In foreign environment, it proteins can unfold and their function can be compromised. This is the reason for stabilization of proteins and one of ways to stabilization is using disulphide bonds. This work describes basic terms related to protein stabilization - proteins, their structure and interactions within them, basic terms from thermodynamics. Problem of protein stability is discussed and the factors which stabilize or destabilize protein are enumerated with the emphasis on disulphide bonds. Existing approaches to disulphide bonds design, dataset for testing own tool are described. Implementation of the tool using geometrical properties of the bonds and fl exibility of places in protein is described. The tool was tested on proteins with native disulfide bonds and compared to existing tools, also metrics FRO (fractional rank order) was used. Native disulfide bond was found in 64 % of cases, in 60 % of cases this native disulfi de bond was in the first quarter of ordered found disulfi de bonds.
