<h2>What Are Nucleases?</h2>
&nbsp;
Nucleases are enzymes that cleave phosphodiester bonds between nucleotide subunits in nucleic acids. Deoxyribonucleases (DNases) act on DNA; ribonucleases (RNases) act on RNA; and some nucleases (S1 Nuclease, Mung Bean Nuclease) act on both single-stranded DNA and RNA. Nucleases are further divided into endonucleases, which cleave internal phosphodiester bonds, and exonucleases, which progressively remove nucleotides from the 5' or 3' terminus of a strand. Major research nucleases include DNase I (non-specific endonuclease for both ss- and ds-DNA), RNase A (cleaves single-stranded RNA at pyrimidine residues), RNase H (degrades the RNA strand of RNA: DNA hybrids), Exonuclease III (removes nucleotides from 3'-recessed or blunt ends of duplex DNA), S1 Nuclease (degrades single-stranded DNA or RNA), and RNase R (degrades linear RNA but not circular RNA). Match the nuclease to the substrate type (single-stranded vs. double-stranded, DNA vs. RNA), the directionality required (endo vs. exo), and cofactor compatibility with your reaction buffer.

<h2>How to Choose Nucleases</h2>
&nbsp;
DNase selection
DNase I (bovine pancreatic, recombinant) non-specifically cleaves both single- and double-stranded DNA in the presence of Mg2+ (random cleavage) or Mn2+ (double-strand cuts at approximately the same position on both strands). Use RNase-free DNase I for RNA preparations to remove genomic DNA contamination. Use Plasmid-Safe ATP-Dependent DNase to selectively degrade linear double-stranded DNA while preserving supercoiled and relaxed circular plasmid DNA. Baseline-ZERO DNase is optimized for the complete removal of trace DNA without damaging RNA.
RNase selection
RNase A cleaves single-stranded RNA at pyrimidine (C and U) residues to produce 3'-pyrimidine nucleotides; it is used to remove RNA from DNA preps, to perform RNase protection assays, and to analyze RNA secondary structure. RNase H degrades the RNA strand of RNA: DNA duplexes and is used after first-strand cDNA synthesis to remove the mRNA template. RNase R (3'-&gt;5' exoribonuclease) degrades all linear RNA without affecting circular RNA, and is used in circular RNA enrichment workflows and to characterize circular RNA splice junctions. Terminator 5'-Phosphate-Dependent Exonuclease (Terminator) digests linear RNA with a 5'-monophosphate, enriching for capped mRNA or circular RNA.
Exonuclease selection
Exonuclease III (Exo III) removes nucleotides from the 3' terminus of duplex DNA and generates single-stranded regions used in unidirectional nested deletions, mapping regulatory elements, and generating single-stranded templates for sequencing. Exonuclease I (Exo I) digests single-stranded DNA in the 3'-&gt;5' direction and is used after PCR to remove unincorporated primers before Sanger sequencing. Lambda Exonuclease removes nucleotides from 5'-phosphorylated duplex DNA in the 5'-&gt;3' direction and is used in isothermal amplification and strand displacement workflows.
Cofactor and inhibitor sensitivity
DNase I requires Mg2+ or Ca2+ for activity and is completely inhibited by EDTA at a 5 mM concentration. RNase A is active across a wide pH range (optimum 7.0-7.5) and is exceptionally stable; inactivation requires proteinase K digestion, phenol-chloroform extraction, or RNase inhibitor protein. RNase H requires Mg2+; RNase R requires Mg2+ and is most active between 37-50 degrees C.
Purity and application grade
For RNA-focused applications, all nucleases used on DNA substrates must be certified RNase-free. For DNA-focused work, DNase-free grades of RNases are required. Confirm lot-specific QC contamination data from the manufacturer before use in sensitive workflows.
&nbsp;
<h2>Specifications Context</h2>
&nbsp;
DNase I activity is expressed in Kunitz units: 1 unit increases A260 by 0.001 per minute per mL during DNA hydrolysis at pH 5.0. RNase A activity is expressed as the amount of enzyme hydrolyzing 50% of an RNA substrate under defined conditions; it remains active at a wide range of temperatures and is notoriously difficult to inactivate (requires boiling in SDS, proteinase K digestion, or phenol-chloroform extraction). RNase R from E. coli degrades linear RNA processively in the 3'-&gt;5' direction and is used at 2-10 U per microgram of total RNA to enrich for circular RNA species. RNase R treatment before library construction is the standard method for circular RNA sequencing (circRNA-seq) workflows on both short-read and long-read platforms.
