Background: NucA nuclease

Serratia marcescens endonuclease NucA is a non-specific nuclease that degrades both single- and double-stranded nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA, but exhibits no proteolytic activity (1) making it ideal for the removal of nucleic acid contaminants from protein samples and in applications where complete digestion of nucleic acids is desirable. NucA is commonly used in bioprocessing applications to reduce viscosity of samples caused by genomic DNA. NucA hydrolyzes internal phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides in nucleic acids to produce 5'-monophosphate oligonucleotides of 3-8 bases in length (2). The active enzyme is a homodimer with two disulfide bonds in each monomer that are crucial to the enzyme activity and stability (3). The optimum pH for enzyme activity is found to be 8.0-9.2. The activity of the recombinant enzyme is measured by a phosphatase coupled assay (4), where the 5'-phosphate of oligosaccharides generated by the enzyme is further released by non-specific alkaline phosphatase and quantitated by Malachite reagents (5).
