Protein Domain : Thermonuclease active site IPR002071

Type  Active_site
Description  Staphylococcus aureus secretes a thermostable nuclease ( ), known as thermonuclease (TNase), which is a calcium-dependent enzyme that catalyzes thehydrolysis of both DNA and RNA at the 5' position of the phosphodiester bond yielding 3'-mononucleotides and dinucleotides []. This signature contains the three residues, twoarginines and a glutamate, that form the active site. The sequence of the TNase of S. aureus is evolutionary related [] to other TNase's of other Staphylococcus spp as well as to several other proteins.
