The zymogen body fraction of pea seeds was further investigated as to the content and localization of additional enzymes. This fraction was previously shown to contain an inactive form of amylopectin-1,6-glucosidase. An acid phosphatase was found with an optimum pH of 5.4. ATP or GTP were the preferred natural substrates, although there was no effect of Mg2+, K+, or Na+ ions on this acid nucleotide phosphatase activity. Cytochemical methods show that the ATPase is membrane-bound and that these bodies have only a single limiting membrane. No RNAse activity could be found; however, there was considerable β-galactosidase activity. It is concluded that these zymogen bodies are a distinct class of subcellular organelles in plants.

Mycobacteriophage R1 was originally isolated from a lysogenic culture of M. butyricum. The virus was propagated on a leucine-requiring derivative of M. smegmatis, 607 leu−, isolated by nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis of typestrain ATCC 607. Growth was accomplished in a minimal medium containing glycerol and glucose as carbon source and enriched by the addition of 80 μg/ ml L-leucine. Bacteria in early logarithmic growth phase were infected with virus at a multiplicity of 5, and incubated with aeration for 8 hours. The partially lysed suspension was diluted 1:10 in growth medium and incubated for a further 8 hours. This permitted stationary phase cells to re-enter logarithmic growth and resulted in complete lysis of the culture.
