Description
Exonuclease I (ExoI) degrades single-stranded DNA in a 3'≥5' direction. It releases deoxyribonucleoside 5'-monophosphates in a stepwise manner and leaves 5'-terminal dinucleotides intact.
It does not cleave DNA strands with terminal 3'-OH groups blocked by phosphoryl or acetyl groups.
Highlights
- Active in PCR buffers
Applications
- Primer removal from PCR mixtures:
- prior to PCR product sequencing li>for one-tube "megaprimer" PCR mutagenesis
Note
The enzyme is not suitable for removing 3'-overhangs of dsDNA.
