  • DNA specific exonuclease
  • Cleaves linear single-stranded DNA in both the 3' to 5' and 5' to 3' directions
  • Preferred substrate is linear single-stranded DNA
  • Need help finding the right exonuclease for your experiments? Try Exo Selector 

Exonuclease VII is ideal for:

  • Removal of primers with or without 3' or 5' terminal phosphorothioate bonds
  • Mapping positions of introns in genomic DNA
  • Removal of single-stranded DNA, leaving behind the double-stranded DNA in a sample

    What are exonucleases and their applications?
Exonuclease VII, (Exo VII) derived from E. coli, cleaves single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from both 5´→3´ and 3´→5´ direction. This enzyme is not active on linear or circular dsDNA (1,2). It is useful for removal of single stranded oligonucleotide primers (3) from a completed PCR reaction when different primers are required for subsequent PCR reactions. Digestion of ssDNA by Exonuclease VII is metal-independent.
Product Source
An E. coli strain that carries cloned Exonuclease VII (XseA and XseB) genes from E. coli.
