Product Description

BbpDNase I is not base nor sequence specific; however, it does not cleave randomly. It shows preference for cleavage at the 5’ side of pyrimidines, and is particularly pronounced in alternative copolymers (Bernardi et al. 1975, and Lomonossoff et al. 1981). It has been shown that variations in the twist angle are recognized by DNase I (Dickerson and Drew 1981). The specificity of DNase I also depends on the divalent cations present. In the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+, it causes single strand breaks, and in the presence of Mn2+ double strand breaks have been reported (Junowicz and Spencer 1973, and Campbell and Jackson 1980).
