| Product Description | |
| General Description: Binuclease is a genetically engineered endonuclease from Serratia marcescens gene that can digest all forms of DNA and RNA, including single stranded, double stranded, linear, circular and supercoiled DNA and RNA. The enzyme cleaves the phosphodiester bond of nucleic acids, producing 5’ monophosphate terminated oligonucleotides 2-5 bases in length. Binuclease is not a sequence dependent nuclease, capable of cleaving the phosphodiester. Advantages Binuclease is produced from eukaryotic yeast cells that avoid the contamination of endotoxin from prokaryotic cells. Binuclease is highly stable under harsh industrial conditions and very cost effective, which make it a perfect alternative for Benzonase® endonuclease and other equivalents. The specific activity of Binuclease was measured at ≥ 1000 kU/mg protein, which is much higher than any existing products (as much as 200%). Application: Gproan Binuclease Endonuclease cleaves all forms of DNA and RNA, which makes it an ideal tool to eliminate nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) contamination in vaccine, antibody, cell therapy and other biological products for therapeutic use to meet FDA guidelines that nucleic acid contamination should be limited to 100 pg. per dose in the end product. Binuclease reduces nucleic acid load and viscosity in cell lysates during purification to facilitate the filtration/ultrafiltration of solutions, reduce processing time, improve the separation of pellets and supernatants in centrifugations and increase the efficiency of chromatographic purification, resulting significant improvements on both yield and purity of cell-derived particles such as viruses, AAV vectors or inclusion bodies. Bioanalytical applications: Sample preparation for ELISA, chromatography or two-dimensional electrophoresis (protein mapping), and footprint analysis to get improved resolution and increased recovery of samples. | |

| Inhibitors | |
| The following common reagents have inhibitory effects on the activity of broad-spectrum nucleases. Within the concentration ranges listed below, the loss of broad-spectrum nuclease activity is within 50%. Urea: 0-2M SDS: 0-0.05% KCl: 0-0.2M Guanidine Hydrochloride: 0-2M NaCl: 0-0.15M EDTA: 0-1M Ammonium Sulfate: 0-100mM Triton concentrations below 1.5% have no significant effect on Binuclease activity. The activity of Binuclease is influenced by ion concentration, reaction temperature, and pH. It is recommended to determine the optimal concentration during initial use. | |
