About DENARASE®
How it works
DENARASE® specifically hydrolyzes the phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides leaving smaller fragments of around 3-5 base pairs. The enzyme is active on all forms of nucleic acids including single-stranded, double-stranded, linear, circular or supercoiled. Best results are obtained when the enzyme is added before the release of DNA.
Production of DENARASE
DENARASE® has been developed for use in commercial manufacturing processes of biologicals and complies with EU GMP regulations. The patented production process uses a gram-positive Bacillus sp. production host, which minimizes the risks of endotoxins in the product. No antibiotics, materials with TSE/BSE risk or raw materials of animal origin are employed in the manufacture of the product.
DENARASE® is available in two quality grades:
DENARASE® for Research and Development (R&D) use &
DENARASE® for manufacturing under GMP.
-
DENARASE® GMP-grade is manufactured under EU GMP conditions
-
DENARASE® R&D-grade is produced in conformity with the ISO 9001 standard, with less strict requirements regarding documentation, storage and distribution
-
From a technical performance perspective, both quality grades are equal and the parameters on the specification are the same. This allows for a seamless transition from early R&D stage towards biopharmaceutical manufacturing under GMP.
-
In order to avoid mix-ups, packaging units of the same size are indicated differently in the product name of the two quality standards: 1000/5000 kU for R&D-grade DENARASE® and 1/5 MU for GMP-grade DENARASE®.

Development of DENARASE®
2024
Launch of DENARASE® High Salt
c-LEcta launched DENARASE® High Salt, an engineered version of its top-selling product DENARASE®.
The newest addition to the DENARASE® portfolio has been especially designed to retain activity at higher salt concentrations and a broad pH spectrum. These features provide customers with greater process flexibility and increased cost efficiency in viral vector manufacturing processes that benefit from elevated salt levels.
2023
New sizes of R&D-grade DENARASE® available
c-LEcta has just launched additional sizes of DENARASE® for research and development use.
Being widely applied in biopharmaceutical R&D and manufacturing, DENARASE sizes of 1 MU and 5 MU will now also be available as R&D-grade, in addition to GMP-grade.
2022
Global application of DENARASE® and ELISA Kit in biopharmaceutical manufacturing
DENARASE® and ELISA Kit are established highest-quality products, applied in the manufacturing of viral vectors for Gene therapies and vaccines:
> 150 customers in > 30 countries
DENARASE® is applied in 4 Commercial and 40+ Clinical Phase I-III viral vector manufacturing processes
2021
Drug Master File for DENARASE® accepted by FDA
Dedicated regulatory support for US-market approvals of pharmaceutical products via own US FDA Drug Master File.
In addition, certified compliance with the EXCiPACT and ANSI NSF 363 Standard (meeting GMP for pharmaceutical excipients)
2020
COVID-Support
Focused support for customers developing and manufacturing COVID-19 vaccines at unprecedented speed
Concerted efforts of c-LEcta teams with COVID-19 vaccine customers succeeded in the delivery of large, unplanned quantities of DENARASE on short timelines
c-LEcta’s resilient manufacturing and distribution network kept COVID-19 related supply issues to general customers at an absolute minimum
2020
Launch of DENARASE® ELISA Kit
Launch of own ELISA kit for the detection of S. marcescens endonucleases in process-derived samples
Fastest and most sensitive ELISA kit available on the market
2017
First DENARASE®-related patents granted
Patents were successfully granted for the production technology of DENARASE® based on recombinant expression in Bacillus
2012
Product launch of DENARASE®
DENARASE® fulfills highest quality standards for biopharmaceutical manufacturing
Starting to build a global sales and distribution network for life science customers
Growth of internal quality, production, distribution and sales functions
2012
Manufacturing of DENARASE® under GMP conditions
Requirements of the biopharmaceutical industry for a GMP product were identified
Partnering with a contract manufacturing organization (CMO) to produce DENARASE® under EU GMP conditions
Manufacturing process free of animal derived raw materials and antibiotics was established
2009-2012
Start of DENARASE® project: Strain selection, development of upstream and purification process
Project started: Application of endonucleases for DNA removal during protein purification
c-LEcta‘s Bacillus strain, an endotoxin-free expression host, yielded highly active DENARASE product. Purity of ≥99 % was achieved after purification.
