Ribonuclease T1

Ribonuclease T1 is an enzyme that specifically breaks down RNA molecules by cutting the chemical bonds between certain building blocks called nucleotides. It mainly targets RNA sequences where a particular nucleotide, guanine, is present. This enzyme is widely used in scientific research to study RNA structure and function, as it helps scientists analyze and manipulate RNA molecules with precision. Ribonuclease T1 operates efficiently under specific conditions, making it a valuable tool for understanding how genetic information is carried and used within cells.
