Micrococcal Nuclease (EC 3.1.31.1 S7 Nuclease MNase spleen endonuclease thermonuclease nuclease T micrococcal endonuclease nuclease T’ staphylococcal nuclease spleen phosphodiesterase Staphylococcus aureus nuclease Staphylococcus aureus nuclease B ribonucleate (deoxynucleate) 3′-nucleotidohydrolase) is an endo-exonuclease that preferentially digests single-stranded nucleic acids.The rate of cleavage is 30 times greater at the 5′ side of A or T than at G or C and results in the production of mononucleotides and oligonucleotides with terminal 3′-phosphates.
