additional information enzyme displays about 200fold greater activity toward single stranded DNA than toward duplex DNA. The limit product obtained by exhaustive digestion of single stranded DNA with endonuclease IV is 25% acid-soluble and consists of oligonucleotides with an average chain length of about 50 nucleotides. Enzyme does not display exonuclease activity. No substrate: denatured bacteriophage T4 DNA Tequatrovirus T4 ?
