Ribonuclease

Description:
Ribonuclease, also known as RNase, is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of RNA into smaller components, such as nucleotides. It is a type of ribonuclease that plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including RNA metabolism and turnover. Ribonuclease is typically found in a variety of organisms, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, and is particularly abundant in the pancreas of mammals. The enzyme operates by cleaving the phosphodiester bonds in RNA, which can lead to the regulation of gene expression and the removal of defective RNA molecules. Ribonuclease exhibits specificity for single-stranded RNA and can also act on double-stranded RNA under certain conditions. Its activity is influenced by factors such as pH, temperature, and the presence of metal ions, which can act as cofactors. Due to its ability to degrade RNA, ribonuclease is utilized in molecular biology applications, including RNA isolation and purification techniques. The CAS number 9001-99-4 uniquely identifies this enzyme in chemical databases.
