Vergleichende Untersuchungen an teilchengebundenem und freiem T2- Lysozym und Kristallisierung beider Enzyme

Abstract

Serological comparison between particle-bound T 2 phage lysozyme and lysozyme from T 2 phage lysates showed purified preparations of both enzymes to be contaminated to a small extent with T 2 tail fiber protein. The latter could be removed by gel filtration and does not possess enzymatic activity for its part. Both lysozymes have been obtained in crystalline form and were studied physico-chemically. They can be assumed to be identical.
