Extract

Shortly after we had completed several studies of the effect of the new herbicide, dalapon, (2,2–dichloropropionic acid), on enzyme systems, it became apparent that high concentrations of this compound inhibited a variety of different enzymes in a noncompetitive fashion. Furthermore, transparent solutions of enzymes frequently became quite turbid when this inhibitor was added. Such behavior suggested that 2,2–dichloropropionic acid was acting as a protein precipitant.
