Product Description
Endonuclease VIII is a DNA repair enzyme that possesses both N-glycosylase activity and AP-lyase activity. The N-glycosylase activity can release damaged pyrimidine bases from double-stranded DNA, creating an abasic (AP) site. The AP-lyase activity then cleaves the phosphodiester bond at the AP site, resulting in a gap with a 5' phosphate and a 3' phosphate. The damaged bases that Endonuclease VIII recognizes and excises include: urea, 5,6-dihydroxythymine, thymine glycol, 5-hydroxy-5-methoxyhydantoin, uracil glycol, 6-hydroxy-5,6-dihydrothymidine, and methylhydroxypropanone.

Figures
Figure1. Base excision repair effect comparison Note: 20 pmol of oligonucleotides were catalyzed by Endonuclease VIII from Yeasen and SupplierA, respectively, in a 20 µL reaction system with the addition of 5~40 U of Endonuclease VIII and equivalent enzyme activity of UDG (Cat#10303ES), and incubated at 3 7 ℃ for 1 hour. The results of agarose gel electrophoresis showed that the base excision effects of Yeasen 's Endonuclease VIII and Supplier A's were consistent.
