DNase I is an endonuclease that can digest single-stranded and double-stranded DNA to produce single deoxynucleotides or single-stranded or double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides. It can hydrolyze the phosphodiester bond to produce monodeoxynucleotides and oligodeoxynucleotides containing 5'-phosphate groups and 3'-OH groups. The average digestion product is the smallest polytetranucleotide. DNase I can catalyze many forms of DNA, such as single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA, and even chromatin (its cutting rate is affected by histones). The optimum pH range is 7-8. The activity of DNase I depends on Ca2+ and can be activated by divalent metal ions, such as Co2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, etc. 5 mM Ca2+ can protect the enzyme from being hydrolyzed. In the presence of Mg2+, the enzyme can recognize and cut any site on any strand of DNA randomly; and in the presence of Mn2+, it can recognize two strands of DNA at the same time and cut at almost the same site to form blunt ends, Or sticky ends with 1-2 nucleotides protruding. DNase I is widely used in the preparation of DNA-free RNA; remove the template DNA after in vitro transcription; prepare DNA-free RNA before RT-PCR and RT-qPCR reactions; combine with DNA polymerase I to perform DNA labeling through nick translocation; DNA fragmentation library construction.
This product is produced in accordance with GMP process requirements, and the product is provided in liquid form.

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.
This enzyme is validated for use in Nucleic Acid Purification applications. It is suitable for use in both standard laboratory research settings and, where applicable, optimized reaction workflows requiring high specificity, sensitivity, or throughput.
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 is available in GMP grade for regulated applications. This enzyme is manufactured in an ISO 13485-certified UCF.ME™ facility and meets GMP-grade quality standards. 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.
