- In
molecular biology,
endonucleases are
enzymes that
cleave the
phosphodiester bond
within a
polynucleotide chain (namely DNA or RNA). Some, such as deoxyribonuclease...
- The
homing endonucleases are a
collection of
endonucleases encoded either as
freestanding genes within introns, as
fusions with host proteins, or as self-splicing...
- A
restriction enzyme,
restriction endonuclease, REase,
ENase or
restrictase is an
enzyme that
cleaves DNA into
fragments at or near
specific recognition...
- Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP)
endonuclease is an
enzyme that is
involved in the DNA base
excision repair pathway (BER). Its main role in the
repair of damaged...

Endonuclease V (endoV) is a
highly conserved endonuclease enzyme family. The
primary function of
endoV differs significantly in
prokaryotes and eukaryotes...

displaces the RNA/DNA
initiator primer into a 5′ flap. The FEN1 5’-3’
endonuclease recognizes that the 5’ flap is displaced, and it cleaves,
creating a...

endonuclease 1 is an
enzyme that in
humans is
encoded by the FEN1 gene. The
protein encoded by this gene
removes 5'
overhanging "flaps" (or short...

Nuclease S1 (EC 3.1.30.1) is an
endonuclease enzyme that
splits single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and RNA into oligo- or mononucleotides. This
enzyme catalyses...
- A
nicking enzyme (or
nicking endonuclease) is an
enzyme that cuts one
strand of a double-stranded DNA or RNA at a
specific recognition nucleotide sequences...
