About Amamus SM nuclease
Amamus SM nuclease is a non-specific nucleic acid endonuclease derived from Serratia Marcescens that degrades all forms of DNA and RNA such as double-stranded, single-stranded, linear, circular or supercoiled. It is effective over a wide range of conditions and possesses an exceptionally high specific activity. This makes the enzyme attractive for the reduction of process related nucleic acids, such as host cell DNA and residual plasmids in biomanufacturing processes.
