1. Adaptor A short synthetic oligonucleotide which creates an internal restriction endonuclease site

2. Restriction endonuclease variants with altered cleavage specificity and/or reduction of star activity

3. There are four members in the mammalian Argonaute family and only Argonaute 2 (Ago2) possesses the Slicer endonuclease activity (1,2)

4. Method for testing mutant gene through real-time polymerase chain reaction using dna polymerase with inhibited activity of 5'-flap endonuclease

5. Baculovirus has a small genome, simple molecular biological characteristics, and a variety of endonuclease cut sites on the genome. (2) Large foreign genes can be accommodated

6. Thermus thermophilus Argonaute (TtAgo) is a programmable DNA-endonuclease which requires a short 5’-phosphorylated single-stranded DNA guide to target its activity to a specific corresponding sequence on a substrate

7. Arenaviruses use a cap snatching strategy to gain the cap structures from the cellular mRNAs, and it is mediated by the endonuclease activity of the L polymerase and the cap binding activity of NP.

8. The present invention relates to a method for detecting single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) using a feature that the 5'-flap endonuclease (FEN) activity of DNA polymerase is inhibited when a probe complementarily binds to the end of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product.

9. So the prokaryotic Argonaute is a nucleic acid guided endonuclease, which means unlike normal endonucleases where you'll have a cutting at a lot of random locations, prokaryotic Argonaute uses a short nucleic acid guide to bring its activity to a very specific sequence in …
