DNase I is used as a genetic marker for forensic identification. Used for the removal of DNA from protein samples. DNAse I is used to nick DNA, as a first step to incorporate labeled bases into DNA. The enzyme from MP Biomedicals has been used in the nuclease stock along with RNAse during cell lysate preparation of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) II cell lines. It has also been used during RNA extraction from Sindbis virus. Deoxyribonuclease I from bovine pancreas has been used for the identification, localization and expression of two novel human genes similar to deoxyribonuclease I. Deoxyribonuclease I from bovine pancreas has also been used in a study to investigate a new approach to obtaining high-activity RNase, DNase, cholesterolesterase, and trypsin from cattle pancreas.
