Deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I), also known as Deoxyribonuclease I, is a nuclease found in various cells and tissues, classified as an endonuclease that targets the phosphodiester bonds adjacent to pyrimidines, producing polynucleotides with a phosphate group at the 5' end and a hydroxyl group at the 3' end, with an average digestion product minimum of a tetranucleotide. DNase can catalyze various forms of DNA, such as single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA, and even chromatin (the cleavage rate is influenced by histones). The optimal working range is pH 7-8, and the activity of DNase depends on Ca ²⁺, and can be activated by divalent metal ions such as Co ²⁺, Mn ²⁺, Zn ²⁺, etc. 5 mM Ca ²⁺ can protect the enzyme from hydrolysis. In the presence of Mg ²⁺, the enzyme can randomly recognize and cleave at any site on either strand of DNA; Whereas under the conditions of Mn ²⁺, it can simultaneously recognize both strands of DNA and cleave at nearly the same site. DNase I was first isolated from the pancreas, and to this day, the pancreas of mammals remains one of the main sources of this enzyme.

This product is derived from bovine pancreas and is commonly used in molecular biology experiments to remove DNA from proteins or to introduce nicks into DNA for the insertion of labeled bases. This product is supplied in powder form, with enzyme activity ≥ 2000 Kunitz Units/mg protein.
