  • Title: THE EFFECT OF PROTEOLYTIC ENZYMES ON E. COLI PHAGES AND ON NATIVE PROTEINS.
    Author: NORTHROP JH.
    Journal: J Gen Physiol; 1964 Sep; 48(1):73-8. PubMed ID: 14212151.
    Abstract:
    Lambda coli phage is not inactivated by chymotrypsin, trypsin, or ficin. T(2) phage is slowly inactivated by high concentrations of (alpha-, beta-, gamma-, or Delta-chymotrypsin, but not by trypsin or ficin. P(1) phage is slowly inactivated by alpha-, beta-, or gamma-chymotrypsin, or ficin, more rapidly by Delta-chymotrypsin, and much more rapidly by trypsin. Crystalline egg albumin, crystalline serum albumin, E. coli nucleoprotein, and yeast nucleoprotein are hydrolyzed slowly by alpha-chymotrypsin. Yeast nucleoprotein, like P(1) phage, is hydrolyzed more rapidly by Delta-chymotrypsin than by alpha-chymotrypsin, but not by trypsin or ficin. Neither phages nor native proteins were attacked by papain, carboxypeptidase, deoxyribonuclease, or ribonuclease.
