Abstract
A thermostable nuclease homologue (NucM) in an animal associated divergent clade of Staphylococcus aureus in sub-Saharan Africa has a highly divergent nucleotide sequence compared to classical nuc1 and nuc2 of S. aureus. The deduced amino acid sequences, tertiary structures nuclease activities are, however, similar.
