    A fraction containing a variety of low molecular weight substances was extracted into 80% aqueous acetone from both a colicin E2-treated cell culture of Escherichia coli and an untreated one. The extract was divided into five fractions by Sephadex G15 chromatography. One of them, Fraction B, was separated into three subfractions by Sephadex G10 chromatography. Two subfractions, Fraction BI and Fraction BII, were further fractionated by several chromatographic systems. DNA was incubated with an aliquot from each of these fractions and was then analyzed by sedimentation in an alkaline sucrose density gradient. The activity which caused a decrease in the sedimentation coefficient of the DNA was found in some of these fractions. The activity from colicin E2-treated cells was compared with that from untreated ones. It was revealed that colicin E2 induces some increases in the activity toward DNA in one of the subfractions, Fraction BI, and also causes the appearance of a new species in another fraction, Fraction BII, which potentiates the activity in Fraction BI. These colicin E2-induced changes appeared at 5 min after the addition of colicin E2. The possible significance of such reactions for the action of colicin E2 are discussed.
