Which one of the following hydrolyzes internal phosphodiester bonds in a polynucleotide chain:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Endonuclease
Nuclease is an enzyme capable of cleaving the phosphodiester bonds between monomeric units of nucleic acids.
Endonucleases are enzymes that hydrolyze internal phosphodiester bonds in a polynucleotide chain.
Exonucleases are enzymes that work by cleaving nucleotides one at a time from the ends of a polynucleotide chain.
lipases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of fats (lipids).
Proteases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of proteins and peptides.
