Mung bean nuclease

Enzyme used to distinguish between single and double stranded DNA and RNA

Mung bean nuclease is a nuclease derived from sprouts of the mung bean that removes nucleotides in a step-wise manner from single-stranded DNA molecules (ssDNA) and is used in biotechnological applications to remove such ssDNA from a mixture also containing double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). This enzyme is useful for transcript mapping, removal of single-stranded regions in DNA hybrids or single-stranded overhangs produced by restriction enzymes, etc. It has an activity similar to Nuclease S1, but it has higher specificity for single-stranded molecules.
