Desoxyribonucleo-depolymerase

Desoxy-. For desoxy- (or deoxy-) derivatives see also inverted entries under the name of the parent compound, e.g., D-Glucose, 2-desoxy-. 6-Desoxyaltroses, I, 62 Desoxyfuroin, IV, 90 Desoxyribonucleo-depolymerase, I, 245... 

A desoxyribonucleo-depolymerase is present in ox pancreas and calf thymus, and in extracts of the germs of Lima bean, sunflower, maize, wheat, and pumpkin. It is not the same as the crystalline ribonucleo-depolymerase, which is devoid of action on desoxyribosenucleic acid. Action of this depolymerase on desoxyribosenucleic acid causes an increase of acidity and conductivity titration of the extra acidity liberated indicates that the final product is a pentabasic tetranucleotide. Greenstein and Jenrette found that the depolymerase also destroys the structural or anomalous viscosity.
