Technical Overview

Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG, also called UNG) recognizes uracil bases in DNA and cleaves the N-glycosidic bond, leaving an abasic site. It is a starting enzyme in base-excision repair.

When used with a compatible dUTP-containing PCR workflow, UDG can treat residual products from earlier amplifications and reduce carryover-related false positives. Compatibility with the specific reaction mix and thermal program should be validated.
