 Use of Deoxyribonuclease II


Deoxyribonuclease II (DNase II) is an endonuclease that hydrolyzes the phosphodiester bonds of deoxyribonucleotides in native and denatured DNA, producing 3' phosphate and 5'-hydroxyl termini. Deoxyribonuclease II works best at acidic pH and is commonly used in biochemical research[1].
