[Isolation and properties of chymotrypsin and trypsin labeled with iodine radioisotopes].

Comparative study of iodination of chymotrypsin and trypsin was carried out using either iodine monochloride or the electrochemical procedure under conditions of controlled anode potential. It was shown that a part of iodine monochloride was consumed for oxidation of protein molecules. As a result of this process specific activity of the enzymes was decreased down to 50-60% of the initial activity after introduction of 2 atoms of iodine per a molecule.
