What was the result of the digestion of transforming substance with proteases and RNases?
What was the result of the digestion of transforming substance with proteases and RNases?
Transformation was inhibited
Transformation was not affected
Transformation was increased
Transformation was only partially affected
Solution
They also discovered that protein-digesting enzymes (proteases) and RNA-digesting enzymes (RNases) did not affect transformation, so the transforming substance was not a protein or RNA.
