CC-preferring endodeoxyribonuclease (EC 3.1.21.6, 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.
