Column chromatography with gradient elution on diethylaminoethyl cellulose resulted in separation of the proteolytic activity of the soybean into six distinct fractions. An inhibitor was separated from the active fractions. The properties of the crude extract and four purified fractions were determined. Although the crude extract was inhibited by iodoacetate, the activity of the pure fractions was not associated with sulfhydryl groups.
