Abstract
Nucleases are important analytical enzymes and are used widely for the determination of nucleic acid structure. Their application depends on the specificity and mode of action of the particular enzyme. Nuclease s have also found application in the production of flavor enhancers li ke 5'IMP and 5'GMP, removal of nucleic acids in single cell protein pr eparations, and as therapeutic agents. Immobilization of nucleases and the use of immobilized nucleases for various biotechnological applica tions have been reviewed.
