Endonuclease IV can act on a variety of oxidative damage in DNA. The enzyme is apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease that will hydrolyse intact AP sites in DNA. AP sites are cleaved at the first phosphodiester bond that is 5´ to the lesion leaving a hydroxyl group at the 3´ terminus and a deoxyribose 5´-phosphate at the 5´ terminus. The enzyme also has a 3´ -diesterease activity and can release phosphoglycolaldehyde, intact deoxyribose 5-phosphate and phosphate from the 3´ end of DNA.
Applications
Single cell gel electrophoresis (Comet assay)
Alkaline elution
Alkaline unwinding

Unit Definition |
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave 1 pmol of a 34-mer oligonucleotide duplex containing a single AP site in a total reaction volume of 10 µl in 1 hour at 37°C. An AP site is created by treating 10 pmol of a 34 mer oligonucleotide duplex containing a single uracil residue with 1 unit of Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (UDG) for 2 minutes at 37°C. |

Store this enzyme at -20°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve catalytic activity. The product is shipped Dry Ice and remains stable for up to one year from the date of manufacture when stored under recommended conditions. Aliquoting the stock solution into single-use volumes is recommended for enzymes used infrequently to minimize thermal cycling of the bulk stock.
Single cell gel electrophoresis (Comet assay) Alkaline elution Alkaline unwinding. Always verify compatibility with your specific template, buffer, and downstream workflow.
One unit (U) is defined as the amount of enzyme that degrades 1 µg of DNA or RNA substrate to acid-soluble form in 30 min at 37°C under defined buffer conditions.
This enzyme is produced as Recombinant (E. coli) and supplied as a Research Use Only (RUO) reagent. Each lot is subjected to activity assay, purity assessment by SDS-PAGE, and functional validation prior to release. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) are available on request.
Nuclease activity typically requires divalent metal ion cofactors (Mg²⁺ or Mn²⁺ at 1–5 mM). Activity is inhibited by chelating agents such as EDTA (≥1 mM), high salt concentrations, and reducing agents such as DTT at elevated concentrations. Heat inactivation (65–75°C for 15 min) is effective for most nucleases, allowing removal of enzyme activity after digestion without column purification.
