In Hershey and Chase experiment, some viruses grew on medium that contained:
35S, 32P
Hershey and Chase labeled bacteriophages with:
1. 35S: Labeled sulfur to mark proteins, as sulfur is present in proteins but not in DNA.
2. 32P: Labeled phosphorus to mark DNA, as phosphorus is a component of DNA but not proteins.
Their experiment demonstrated that only DNA entered bacterial cells during infection, proving DNA is the genetic material.
