Alleged susceptibility of sulphydryl enzymes to ionizing radiation
Results are presented to show that the sulfhydryl enzymes, muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and yeast alcohol dehydrogenase, are inactivated by x rays with about the same ionic yield as various non-sulphydryl enzymes. Implications of the findings on concepts of the susceptibility of sulphydryl enzymes to the indirect action of ionizing radiations are discussed. (C.H.)
