EC 3.1.31.1 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

Nuclease S7 has been used in ribonuclease selection process for ribosome profiling.

Uses

Nuclease from Staphylococcus aureus has been used in a study to assess coagulase and heat-resistant strains found in animals. It has also been used in a study to investigate the expression characteristic of two genes in S. aureus that encode two thermostable nucleases.

Uses

Micrococcal Nuclease can be used for the digestion of chromatin to identify the location of nucleosomes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cleavage of DNA by Nuclease micrococcal is greater at the 5′ sides of A or T nucleotides than at G or C.
