Abstract
SPECIFIC staining reactions have been used to locate several enzymes in starch-gels after the electrophoresis of crude enzyme extracts, and these techniques have been used to detect molecular variants of these enzymes1–3. This communication reports a technique for staining glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, an important enzyme in intermediary metabolism, and some results obtained in the electrophoresis of preparations from strains of streptococci.
