Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus extracellular nuclease activity

Staphylococcus aureus encodes two extracellular nuclease enzymes, Nuc and Nuc2. Nuc is a secreted enzyme that is cut by signal peptidase (SpsB) at the cell membrane and is further processed into two active forms, NucA and NucB, by an unknown protease. Nuc2 is predicted to be a second extracellular n...
