A nuclease that cleaves nucleic acids at interior bonds and so produces fragments of various sizes
Endonucleases are enzymes that cleave the phosphodiester bond within a polynucleotide chain, in contrast to exonucleases, which cleave phosphodiester bonds at the end of a polynucleotide chain. ...

A protein that cleaves the phosphodiester backbone of a nucleic acid enzymatically, for example a restriction enzyme.
An enzyme that cleaves its nucleic acid substrate at internal sites in the nucleotide sequence.
Enzyme that cleaves bonds between nucleotides of single- or double-stranded DNA or of RNA at specific sequences of nucleotides.
An enzyme that cleaves at internal locations within a nucleotide sequence. The enzyme's site of action is generally a sequence of 8 bases. For E. coli, treatment with a restriction endonuclease will lead to around 70 fragments. Cleavage of human DNA leads to around 50,000 fragments.
