Purification of Streptococcus group C bacteriophage lysin
Abstract
A simple procedure for the purification of Streptococcus group C phage lysin to apparent homogeneity is described. The electrophoretically pure, enzymatically stable polypeptide of 98,000 molecular weight converted Streptococcus (groups A, F, and H) cells into spheroplasts within 5 min at 0 degrees C or within less than a minute at 37 degrees C.
