CC-preferring endodeoxyribonuclease
Ec Number:	3.1.21.6
Cas Number:	37211-67-9

CC-preferring endodeoxyribonuclease (Streptomyces glaucescens exocytoplasmic dodeoxyribonuclease) is an enzyme.^{[1] [2]} This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

endonucleolytic cleavage to give 5'-phosphooligonucleotide end-products, with a preference for cleavage within the sequence CC

This enzyme has preference for CC sites in double-stranded circular and linear DNA.
