NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -Nuclease is also called nucleo depolymerase. The breakdown of nucleic acid into nucleotides is done by cleaving the phosphodiester bond which is present between the nucleotides in the nucleic acids.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nucleases cleave the phosphodiester bonds of nucleic acids and may be endo or exo, DNases or RNases, topoisomerases, recombinases, ribozymes, or RNA splicing enzymes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nucleic Acid Digestion The nucleic acids DNA and RNA are found in most of the foods you eat. Two types of pancreatic nuclease are responsible for their digestion: deoxyribonuclease, which digests DNA, and ribonuclease, which digests RNA.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleases can be broken down into two subunits, called endonucleases and exonucleases. Exonucleases cut off the end of a nucleotide sequence, one by one. Endonucleases will cut out certain nucleotide sequences right in the middle of a nucleic acid.
