show Brenda entry

EC number

3.1.13.1

Accepted name

exoribonuclease II

Reaction

Exonucleolytic cleavage in the 3′- to 5′-direction to yield nucleoside 5′-phosphates

Other name(s)

ribonuclease II, ribonuclease Q, BN ribonuclease, Escherichia coli exo-RNase II, RNase II, exoribonuclease (misleading), 5′-exoribonuclease (misleading)

CAS registry number
