Hershey and Chase labelled phages with 32P and 35S. They found that the S35 labelled protein remained outside the cell and could be removed without affecting the phage infection. 32P labelled DNA entered the bacterial cells and could be found in progeny phages. Could this experiment have been performed using radioactively labelled hydrogen and carbon?

The research of Hershey and Chase has shown that the genetic material they used to create the radioactive T2-bacteriophage is DNA (Viruses that infect E. coli bacteria). Virus T2 or the Enterobacteria phage The Group-I bacteriophage includes T2.

The T2-bacteriophage belongs to the Myoviridae family and has a linear, ds-DNA genome. The head, collar, and tail are the main components of the T2-bacteriophage's body. Because of its tail, the T2-bacteriophage resembles the T4-like virus or T4-bacteriophage.

In the Hershey and Chase Experiment, radioactive phosphorus (P32) and radioactive sulphur (S35) were used to identify the phage DNA and protein in order to determine which will infect E. coli. Hershey and Chase carried out a number of studies, including infection, mixing, and centrifugation, after labeling the phage DNA and protein.
