The Isolation of Crystalline Trypsinogen and Its Conversion into Crystalline Trypsin

Abstract
Inactive trypsin, trypsinogen) obtained from an acid extract of fresh cattle nancreas crystallized in the form of short, triangular, prisms if allowed to stand at 5[degree]C. in 1/2 sat. MgSO4 made up in 0.2 M borate buffer pH 9.0. The crystalline trypsinogen was changed into crystalline trypsin when redissolved in dilute acid and then allowed to stand in 1/2 sat. MgSO4 pH 7.0-8.0 at 5[degree]C. Trypsin crystallized in the form of rectangular long prisms.
