V. Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase (Early 1950s) Hershey and Chase utilized phages in their research. A bacteriophage is a virus that infects a bacterium, it consists of a protein coat and DNA, it also reproduces quickly and can easily be harvested. Hershey and Chase used radioactive P and S to track the differences in the protein and DNA, since only DNA contains Pand only proteins contain S. They infected bacteria with the phage that had the radioactive S, and they infected another group of bacteria with a radioactive P. The results showed that the bacteria containing radioactive P entered the bacterium.
