New England Biolabs, Inc. USER Enzyme – 250 units

Supplier: New England Biolabs, Inc. M5505L

USER (Uracil-Specific Excision Reagent) Enzyme generates a single nucleotide gap at the location of a uracil. USER Enzyme is a mixture of Uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG) and the DNA glycosylase-lyase Endonuclease VIII. UDG catalyses the excision of a uracil base, forming an abasic (apyrimidinic) site while leaving the phosphodiester backbone intact. The lyase activity of Endonuclease VIII breaks the phosphodiester backbone at the 3 and 5 sides of the abasic site so that base-free deoxyribose is released.
