Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1914 Solutions of the bodies of pneumococci, obtained by dissolving them in dilute solutions of sodium cholate, by permitting them to undergo autolysis, or by first freezing, drying, and then grinding in salt solution, are actively hemolytic for rabbit, sheep, guinea pig, and human red blood corpuscles. The substance on which this hemolytic property depends

Deoxyribonucleases of Pneumococcus
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1967 Abstract Two enzymes with deoxyribonuclease activity were isolated from Pneumococcus. One of these, an endonuclease active on both native and denatured deoxyribonucleic acid, produced 5'-phosphate-terminated fragments which, even after extensive degradation, were larger than mononucleotides.
