| Accepted name: |
polynucleotide 3′-phosphatase |
| Reaction: |
a 3′-phosphopolynucleotide + H2O = a polynucleotide + phosphate |
| Other name(s): |
2′(3′)-polynucleotidase; DNA 3′-phosphatase; deoxyribonucleate 3′-phosphatase; 5′-polynucleotidekinase 3′-phosphatase |
| Systematic name: |
polynucleotide 3′-phosphohydrolase |
| Comments: |
Also hydrolyses nucleoside 2′-, 3′- and 5′-monophosphates, but only 2′- and 3′-phosphopolynucleotides. |
