Cat No.
NATE-0201
Description
Deoxyribonuclease II, also called as acid DNAse, hydrolyzes deoxyribonucleotide linkages in native and denatured DNA yielding products with 3'-phosphates. In vitro, its optimum pH range is 4.5-5.0. It also acts upon p-nitrophenyl-phosphodiesters at pH 5.6-5.9. The molecular weight is approximately 38 kDa Da.

Applications
DNAse II from Creative Enzymes has been used in the dissociation medium during the preparation of embryonic cardiac myocytes from rat heart. Deoxyribonuclease II from bovine spleen has been used in a study that conducted a partial purification of deoxyribonucleases from eggs and liver of Xenopus laevis. Deoxyribonuclease II from bovine spleen has also been used in a study to investigate nucleic acid and protein synthesis of splenic lymphocytes.
