Nicking enzyme

Endonuclease that cuts a single DNA strand

A nicking enzyme is an enzyme that cuts one strand of a double-stranded DNA or RNA at a specific recognition nucleotide sequences known as a restriction site. Such enzymes hydrolyze (cut) only one strand of the DNA duplex, to produce DNA molecules that are “nicked”, rather than cleaved.
