| Application: | Acts specifically on single-stranded DNA degrading it processively in the 3′- to 5′-direction, producing 5′-mononucleotides. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Exonuclease I (EXO1) maintains genomic stability by participating in DNA mismatch repair system, DNA recombination, DNA replication and DNA double-stranded break repair in eukaryotes. It also modulates meiosis, immunoglobulin maturation, and micro-mediated end-joining. It functions on DNA with blunt, nicked, gapped and 3′-overhangs. It also possesses endonuclease action and removes 5′-single-stranded flaps that protrudes from a double stranded DNA. Mutation in EXO1 gene results in increased susceptibility to develop cancer. |
| Features and Benefits: | • Eliminating residual single-stranded DNA containing a 3′-terminus. • Measuring endonucleolytic cleavage of covalently closed circular (ccc) ssDNA. • Measuring DNA helicase activity. |
| General description: | Exonuclease I. |
| General description: | The EXO1 (exonuclease I) gene is mapped to human chromosome 1q43 and codes for a 5′→3′ exonuclease of 846 amino acids. It belongs to the 5′-nuclease superfamily. |
