The structure- and strand-specific phosphodiesterase flap endonuclease-1 (FEN1), the prototypical 5'-nuclease, catalyzes the essential removal of 5'-single-stranded flaps during replication and repair. FEN1 achieves this by selectively catalyzing hydrolysis one nucleotide into the duplex region o...
