'''The RNase H2 ribonuclease complex''' is a heterotrimeric endoribonuclease responsible for the major ribonuclease H activity in mammalian cells. In mouse, the complex is encoded by 3 genes located on chromosomes 8 (''Rnaseh2a''), 14 (''Rnaseh2b'') and 19 (''Rnaseh2c''). This enzyme specifically cleaves the 3’O-Phosphate bond of RNA in a DNA/RNA hybrids to produce 5’ phosphate and 3’hydroxyl ends.
