Product description: Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (UNG),E.coli is a recombinant protein in E.coli. The enzyme hydrolyzes uracil-glycosidic bonds at U-DNA in single- or double-strand DNA excising uracil and creating alkali sensitive abasic sites in the DNA. The enzyme is inactive on RNA and native, uracil-free DNA. Since Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (UNG), heat-labile has no metal ion requirements, it is fully active in the presence of EDTA.
