Ribonuclease H (RNase H) is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in RNA metabolism. It specifically recognizes and degrades RNA strands that are hybridized to DNA. This characteristic makes RNase H important for various biological processes, including DNA replication, repair, and the removal of RNA primers during DNA synthesis.
